Springdale, Ark.- The Lady Pioneers defeated Ecclesia College this evening, marking the fourth consecutive season and road game win for the program. Joi Montgomery paved the way with her fourth double-double of the season with 19 points and 21 rebounds. Montgomery's 21 rebound effort is the program's second-highest single-game rounding effort only behind Elly Burrell's 23 boards on 2/6/17 vs Fisk. Crowley's Ridge took a 10-point lead of 40-30 going into the break which the Pioneers turned into a blowout 67-44 point win. The Pioneer defense stonewalled the Lady Royals in the second half, only allowing 14 points in the final 20 minutes of action. Along with Montgomery, other top performers were sophomore Brooklyn Kearbey who bucketed 17 points, and sophomore Jordan Rasmussen added 9 points and 5 rebounds in the non-conference win.
