Box Score Box score

MILWAUKEE - The Wisconsin Lutheran College women's basketball team started Saturday night's game against MSOE with a 12-0 run and never looked back as the Warriors ran past the Raiders 70-36 at the Kern Center. The win was the third straight for WLC.

Wisconsin Lutheran controlled the game from the opening tip as the Warriors scored the first 12 points and 16 of the first 18 to build an early 16-2 lead just four minutes into play. WLC would continue its first half dominance as the Warriors took a 34-9 lead into halftime.

The second half saw much of the same as the Warriors coasted to the 38-point win, including leading by a game-high 42 points, 66-24, with 4:46 remaining in the contest. WLC led by at least 23 points throughout the entire second half.

Shavon Dillon (Milwaukee, Wis./Hope School) paced the Warriors balanced offensive attack as the senior guard scored 13 points on 5-for-7 shooting. Joining Dillon in double digits for Wisconsin Lutheran were junior Rachel Hoft (Germantown, Wis./Germantown) and sophomroe Kristen Schulz (Safford, Ariz./Arizona Lutheran) as each player finished with 10 points. Schulz also grabbed a game-best 12 rebounds to finish with a double-double.

Junior Kelli Johnson (Milwaukee, Wis./Wisconsin Lutheran) added nine points and 10 rebounds for Wisconsin Lutheran, while senior guard Alyssa Allister (Lake Mills, Wis./Lakeside Lutheran) dished out a game-high five assists, more assists than the entire MSOE team (four).

MSOE (0-4, 0-2 NAC) was led by Shannon Larson who scored a game-best 16 points. Courtney Samuels pulled down 10 rebounds for the host Raiders, who were held to 23.3 percent (10-for-43) shooting by the stifling Warriors defense.

Wisconsin Lutheran (4-1, 2-0 NAC) returns to action Tuesday when it visits Dominican (0-6, 0-2) in a rematch of last year's Northern Athletics Conference Tournament Championship game. Tip-off between the Warriors and Stars is set for 7 p.m. at the Igini Sports Forum in River Forest, Ill. Fans can follow the action via live audio, stats, and video from wlcsports.com.
