ALEXANDRIA, La. – The sixth seed Louisiana Christian University women's basketball program held a one-point advantage heading into the halftime locker room, but a third quarter where the third-seeded Generals outscored the Wildcats 25-10 proved to be the deciding factor in their 74-60 RRAC Quarterfinals defeat.
