LAWTON, Okla. – Cameron women's basketball went ice cold down the stretch, which resulted in them falling to Lubbock Christian 68-56 inside the Aggie Gym on Saturday afternoon.

LCU came out the gate with a quick three ball, but the Aggies would hold them 0-3 and force three turnovers during a three minute stretch to build a 6-4 lead. The Lady Chaps responded with a 6-0 run to take a 10-6 lead with 5:51 left in the frame. CU battled back to make it a one point game late, at 14-13 after a Wilson layup, but Lubbock Christian would close the first on a 7-2 run to build a six-point lead at 21-15.

The Black-and-Gold chipped away over the first four minutes of the second quarter, getting the game within a basket after an and-one play by Lovings to make it 25-23. LCU would go on a 10-3 run to build a nine-point lead with 3:30 to play in the first half. Allensworth would make a layup with 2:26 left to cut the deficit to 35-30. The Lady Chaps would close the second quarter on a 5-0 run to build a 40-30 lead at the break.

The Aggies opened the fourth quarter on a 5-2 run to cut the game to a two-point game at 52-50 with just over eight minutes left. The Lady Chaps built a four-point lead at 56-52 with 6:52 remaining. From that point on Cameron would shoot 0-for-7 from the floor and 4-of-6 from the free throw line, while LCU would close the game on a 12-4 run.
