DALLAS (SMU) – The SMU women's basketball limited the nation's leading scorer to seven points and three Mustangs scored in double figures during a 61-55 win against Delaware Tuesday night in Moody Coliseum.

Sydne Wiggins and Kayla White each scored a game-high 17 points. Savannah Wilkinson posted her sixth double-double of the season, which she had by halftime, with 14 points and 15 rebounds, including 12 on the defensive end of the floor. For Delaware, Jasmine Dickey entered the game with an NCAA-leading 27.9 points per game. SMU held her to just seven points on 3-of-12 from the field.

SMU (4-5) made its last seven field goal attempts of the game and outscored the Blue Hens 15-5 over the last four minutes of the game for the victory. Delaware (6-3) made a 3-pointer with 4:13 left in the fourth quarter to take a 50-46 lead. Jasmine Smith answered with a 3 for SMU, just her second FG of the game, with 3:41 on the clock.

A scoreless minute went by before White stole the ball and found Wiggins for a jumper. SMU took a 51-50 lead with 2:39 to play and never trailed again. With the lead still just one, 53-52 with 1:29 remaining, Wiggins made her sixth FG of the second half. With the shot clock winding down on Delaware's next possession, SMU forced a turnover, leading to a bucket by White. The lead was now five for the Mustangs with 36 seconds left, marking the largest lead by either team at that point in the game.

The Mustangs made all four free throws in the final 22 seconds to secure the win. Delaware entered the game ranked No. 52 in the nation in scoring offense, averaging 75.5 points per game, but the SMU defense held the Blue Hens to their lowest offensive output of the season.

SMU plays next at Colorado on Dec. 17 after a break for final exams.
