After four quarters of trading blows Wednesday at Glen Oaks, the Kellogg Community College women's basketball team dealt the Vikings a 72-60 defeat in Michigan Community College Athletic Association play.
A barrage of 3-pointers by Amanda Barber to start the game put GOCC ahead 9-2, but the Bruins were able to regain a 17-16 advantage after 10 minutes of play. It was never more than a two-possession contest the rest of the first half as Kellogg pieced together a 35-31 lead at the break.
Barber, who led Glen Oaks with 15 points (all on 3-pointers), finished the first half with 12.
The Vikings found themselves down nine points early in the third quarter before Morgan Kurdziel hit a jumper at the top of the key, drove to the hoop for a layup and Barber drained a 3-pointer to cut the deficit to 40-38. A Kylie Quist triple and a Kurdziel 3-pointer tied the game at 44-44 late in the third frame.
Kellogg's Cheria Richardson heated up in the fourth quarter, connecting on a pair of 3-pointers and completing another three-point play that helped the Bruins stretch the lead to 15 late in the game.
For Glen Oaks, Quist finished with 12 points on 5-for-11 shooting, Kurdziel was the third player in double figures with 10, and Lilyana Coleman registered eight. Kamryn Washington tossed in five points, Kaytlin Smith added four, Alea Fisher hit a late 3-pointer, Sarah DeKoning recorded two points and Chelsi Zyla hit a free throw for the Vikings.
Kellogg improved to 13-3 overall and 3-0 in the MCCAA. Glen Oaks fell to 8-9 overall and 0-3 in league play.
