Big Second Quarter Not Enough as Conqs Fall to Colby on the Road

The Dodge City Conquistadors women's basketball program dropped a road contest to the Colby Trojans last night in Colby, Kansas by a score of 68-57.

After an 11-4 deficit and the loss of freshman Payton James to a wrist injury following the first quarter, the Conqs showed signs of life as they blitzed Colby with a 21-11 second quarter advantage to take a three-point lead at 25-22 heading into halftime.

The second half belonged to the home team as the Trojans proceeded to outscore the Conquistadors by 14 points in the final 20 minutes to come away with the victory.

"We played a great second quarter, but we have to do a better job defensively in the second half to make that second quarter count," said head coach Zach Loll.

Colby opened the third quarter on an 11-2 run to take a 33-27 lead with 5:00 to play. After getting down by as many as eight points in the quarter, the Conquistadors battled back to make it a two-point contest with 0:45 left in the quarter off the strength of a Xenia Cavalle three-pointer. Trojan leading scorer, Marveen Ross closed out the quarter with a steal that led to an and-one to push the Trojan lead to five heading into the fourth.

The Trojans controlled the final ten minutes, maintaining a double-digit lead for most of the quarter until the game's final buzzer signaled a 68-57 victory for Colby.

Dodge City was led by Emery Maze's 16 points, including 12 that led the Conquistadors' second quarter attack. Keimora Banks came off the bench to add 12 points, four rebounds, and four assists. Center Ashley Hopkins also chipped in 10 points and five rebounds off the bench. Sophomore Madison Gissendanner did her damage outside of the scoring column as she collected 11 rebounds and four blocked shots.

Colby's attack was paced by sophomore Marveen Ross and her 24 points and 13 rebounds, both game-highs. Kiarra Henderson added 12 points and nine rebounds as the only other Trojan in double-figures.

The Conqs fall to 3-9 on the season and 2-9 in KJCCC play while Colby moves to 3-7 and 2-7.

Dodge City is back in action this Saturday, March 6^th when they host the Northwest Kansas Tech Mavericks in a conference double-header. The women's game is scheduled to tipoff at 1:00 pm CST with the men's game to follow. Fans are welcome and tickets can be purchased here.
