PHOENIX (Dec. 19, 2018) – The Our Lady of the Lake University (OLLU) women's basketball team is participating in the Frontier Challenge Tournament hosted by Chandler-Gilbert College in Phoenix. The No. 12 Saints fell to the No. 9 University of Montana-Western (UMW) 57-59. The Saints are now 9-2 overall and the Bulldogs move to 7-0.
Head Coach Christopher Minner said, " I am disappointed in how we started the game, but I am pleased with our second half. Not sure if I have ever seen an OLLU team shoot as bad as we did in the first half this afternoon. We had good looks, but we missed 3-point shots, free throws and layups. We cannot play that way against a top 10 team that went to the final four last year. These games make us better if we learn from them. The next two games will be just as tough. Hopefully, we can win one, but we do need to play a lot better. We had a good attempt at a comeback today."
