MILWAUKEE – After not being able to complete their comeback against Benedictine on Saturday, MSOE women's basketball was looking to get back in the win column with the Muskies of Lakeland coming to town. This time the Raiders turned an early 10-point deficit into a 14-point victory on Tuesday evening inside the Kern Center.

FINAL SCORE
Lakeland – 53

HOW IT HAPPENED

• The MSOE (6-7, 4-3 NACC) offense got off to a slow start this evening in the first quarter but more than made up for it in the middle two frames.

• While both teams went cold in the final period, the Red & White had built up a substantial lead that was able to weather the drought.
• MSOE shot 44.6 percent from the field, including 41.2 percent from behind the three-point line to take home their fourth conference win of the season.
