Women's Hoops Falls in Exhibition to Houston Christian

HOUSTON, Texas -- LeTourneau women's basketball fell 100-37 in an exhibition on the road against Division I Houston Christian, inside Sharp Gymnasium, Tuesday evening.

Mariana Espinosa led the YellowJackets with 10 points, including a pair of threes, and five rebounds. 

Robbi Martinez recorded eight points, with a perfect 2-of-2 from three-point land.

Kylie Weeks followed with seven points, three boards, and three assists, while Makenzie Covey produced six points and a pair of steals.

LeTourneau held its own in the first quarter, with Houston Christian only leading 28-16 after the first.

The YellowJackets found its first points via an Espinosa jumper, immediately followed by a Covey steal and score.

By the second quarter, LeTourneau played well defensively, holding the Huskies (1-3) to just eight points through the first 5:18 of the quarter.

Eventually, though, Houston Christian's size and speed would just be too much for LeTourneau to handle, leading 51-25 at the half, and running away with the rest of the game.

The Huskies were led by Grace Booth, with 18 points and eight rebounds.

UP NEXT

LeTourneau travels to Mississippi for a pair of games, the first of which being at Millsaps on Friday, Nov. 21.
