Fine and Talley Double Doubles Help Royals Run Win Streak to 9

Surprise, AZ - The Hope International University women's basketball team (9-1, 4-0 GSAC) stayed undefeated in GSAC play and won their ninth game in a row as they shutdown the OUAZ Spirit 62-46 on Saturday afternoon in Surprise, AZ

It was the Spirit who jumped out to an early 6-2 advantage in this one. The Royals came right back though on a 17-1 run finished off by back to back three pointers from Rachel Capina as they took a 19-7 advantage. The teams would then exchange baskets as the Royals took a 22-9 lead at the end of the first quarter. The Spirit whittled the Royals lead back down to ten to start the second but the Royals answered with a 10-0 run as they extended their lead to 34-14 as they would go on to take a 39-18 lead at halftime.

The Royals continued their momentum in the third as they opened on a 6-0 run to extend their lead to 45-18. The Spirit didn't give up though and clawed their way back as they got within 50-39 at the end of the third quarter. The Royals took control again in the fourth as they opened on a 9-0 run led by five points from Shiane Talley as they took a 59-39 lead midway through the quarter. The Spirit used a late run to get within 62-46 but that's as close as the Royals let them get as they emerged victorious. Jeanette Fine (20 points, 11 rebounds) and Talley (21 points, 11 rebounds) both recorded double doubles in the win.

The Royals return home for GSAC play as they take on Westmont College on Thursday, December 8 at 5:30 PM in the Darling Pavilion.
