11/29/2020 1:47:00 PM | Women's Basketball
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- The Davidson Wildcats (0-3) outscored their opponent in the second half for the second-straight game today, but the hot-shooting FGCU Eagles (2-2) jumped out to an early lead to run away with the 84-61 victory in the final game of bdG Sports' #BeachBubble.
Peyton Carter won her second-straight opening tip to begin today's contest, before reaching a new career-high in scoring with 12 points. Cameron Tabor led Davidson's offense efficiently this morning, scoring a career-high 14 points and grabbing six rebounds. Junior Chloe Welch scored the team-high for the third consecutive day, tallying 17 points, along with Adelaide Fuller who recorded 11 points and seven rebounds.
The Eagles got off to a hot start and never looked back, as they shot nearly 63 percent from the floor and drained eight first-half three-pointers. Davidson fell to an early seven-point deficit, before Tabor got the 'Cats' offense rolling with a transition three-pointer for her first basket of the day. After recording just nine first quarter points, the Wildcats picked up speed in the second with Tabor and Welch opening up the frame with five straight points for Davidson.
Trailing 51-27 going into the second half, the Wildcats came out of the break ready to work. Fuller was once again leading the Davidson comeback, as she recorded four points and five rebounds in the third quarter alone. With 10 bench points and six second-chance points in the quarter, the Wildcats trailed 66-50 going into the final frame of play.
The 'Cats halted the Eagles' scoring efforts for the first three minutes of the fourth, and managed to pull within 11 of FGCU for the first time since the seventh minute of the game. From there however, the Eagles hit four more three-pointers to secure their lead and pull off the win, 84-61.
Throughout today's game, Davidson displayed 18 different lineup combinations with just two managing to outscore the Eagles. Kelly Fitzgerald, Sarah Konstans, Cassidy Gould, Tabor and Fuller shared the floor for a combined 6:51 this morning and outscored FGCU, 15-6. The fivesome averaged nearly 2.2 points per minute and 1.2 points per possession.
Davidson will now go on a 10-day hiatus for finals, before returning to the floor for their home opener on Wednesday, Dec. 9 at 4 p.m. to take on Charleston Southern inside Belk Arena. The game will be streamed live on ESPN+.
