Shaw Lady Bears Advance to Second Round of NCAA Tournament
Written by HBCU Digest, Posted in Headlines, Shaw University, Sports
Kyria Buford, Aslea Williams and Brittany Ransom had over 20 points apiece, but it was a stifling second-half defense that made the difference as Shaw downed West Virginia Wesleyan in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
With the win, the Lady Bears improve to 24-6 on the season and advance to the regional semifinals where they will take on Gannon, who defeated Johnson C. Smith earlier in the afternoon. West Virginia Wesleyan finishes the season 24-7.
“It’s always good to advance,” said Shaw head coach Jacques Curtis. “Everyone here is a good team. What we saw on the tape is pretty much the game we got.”
