KWC women start fast in 67-60 win

Dec. 1—The Kentucky Wesleyan College women's basketball team bolted out to a double-digit lead in the first quarter and held off late-surging Findlay to claim a 67-60 win in their conference opener Thursday night at the Sportscenter.

The Panthers (5-1, 1-0 G-MAC) shot 62.5% from the field in the opening frame, including a 6-of-10 mark from beyond the arc, to set the tone early. KWC led 26-13 after the first 10 minutes and went into intermission with a 43-28 advantage.
