Box Score By Kevin Farr
Murray State Sports Information
Four Lady Aggies eclipsed double figures once again and 25^th ranked Murray State pulled away to a 72-57 win over Redlands on the road Thursday night for their 13^th straight victory.

Upping their record to 20-6 overall and 12-1 in conference play, Coach Steve Lowe's squad moved within one win of clinching at least a share of the league regular season title. The Lady Aggies will return home Saturday afternoon for a 2 p.m. makeup tilt with Northern Oklahoma College-Enid inside Beames Fieldhouse.

Murray State grabbed a 19-13 lead after one quarter and gradually built on that mark, taking a 40-31 edge to intermission. The advantage ballooned to 58-42 through three periods and the Lady Aggies cruised home from there.

Mattie Busby took scoring honors on the night with 19 points with Reese Webb just behind her while tallying 17. Payton James canned three treys on the way to 11 points while Jade Millan rounded out the double digit contributors with 10.

Briana Knabe finished just shy of a fifth in double figures, ending with nine points with Lanie Gooch and Remi Langmaid adding three apiece to wind up the scoring totals.
