ORLANDO, Fla. (SMU) - Four Mustangs scored in double figures, but it was not enough as the SMU women's basketball team fell, 78-68, to the UCF Knights in Orlando.
Jillian Samuels and Brittany Gilliam scored 12 points apiece - all of Samuels' points coming on four three-pointers - while Haley Day added 10 points and LaShandra Hill had 10.
But UCF's Chelsie Wiley had 26 points and Emma Cannon had 14 points and 20 rebounds as the Knights held on late. SMU slipped to 14-9 overall and 7-3 in Conference USA games, while UCF improved to 10-13, 8-2.
