Despite a double digit output by three of The Devilettes, The Lady Lions of Pine Bluff overcame a late game surge to outlast Mississippi Valley in the closing seconds. A three pointer by Natalia Ready with 1:47 to go in the game gave Valley the lead, but three straight turnovers in the closing minutes gave UAPB the edge they needed to get the victory.
Natalia Ready and Angelica Darcus both ended the game with 14 points respectively. Every player in uniform scored at least a point in the game.
Jayla Atmore scores a game high 22 points along with 8 rebounds and 3 steals to lead The Lady Lions.
The Devilettes are back in action at home on January 18th as they will be on the road to face Alabama State in continued conference play.
