Wittenberg 71, Ohio Wesleyan 62

Jan. 8, 2003

Kate Rolf scored twice as Wittenberg closed the first half with a 10-0 run and went on to defeat Ohio Wesleyan in North Coast Athletic Conference play on Wednesday in Springfield.

The Bishops led several times during the nip-and-tuck first half and took a 21-20 lead on a lay-in by senior post Mindy Hammond (Columbus/DeSales) with 3:38 left in the period.

Rolf then drained a jumper on Wittenberg's next possession to give the Tigers a 22-21 lead, and Meghan Bruggeman, Amber Bishop and Tiffany Keller followed with lay-ins before Rolf finished off the half with a lay-in with :10 to play, giving Wittenberg a 30-21 halftime lead.

Sophomore post Shelby Larson (Arlington Heights, Ill./Rolling Meadows) scored to open the second half, closing the margin to 7, but Wittenberg answered with a Bruggeman bucket and did not allow the Bishops to come closer than 6 points during the rest of the game.

Sophomore wing Kelly Heil (Sylvania/Southview) led the Bishops with 22 points and 5 rebounds, while Hammond finished with 13 points and led the Bishops with 6 assists.

Keller led the Tigers with 18 points and Stephanie Campbell added 14 points.
