Despite a 21-point performance and two more in double figures, TCJ Eagles Women's Basketball came up short against the Stallions of Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College on Monday.

Once again, the Eagles got to the line often and converted the bulk of the shots, 25 of 36. However, ABAC used 9 three-pointers and scored 37 points off turnovers to help build their lead and put up the final score. Brianna Wimberly sank 5 of those three-pointers, and leading scorer Reese Riddle hit three. Riddle led the court with 22 points, and Wimberly scored 15.
