ORLANDO, Fla. - Another slow start hampered the Lady Wildcats with a 9-0 deficit from which they never fully recovered on Sunday's 64-46 loss at Central Florida, with scoring droughts and turnovers keeping B-CU out of range despite charges to get back into the game.

B-CU (2-5) went scoreless for the first four minutes before a Taylor Houston three-pointer put B-CU on the board at 15:53. The 'Cats kept pace with the knights once they got moving, but UCF (3-6) took advantage of another scoring drought to extend the halftime lead to 35-18.

The Lady Wildcats granted the Knights too many opportunities, with 21 turnovers at half.

UCF grew their lead into the second half to as many as 20, but just beyond the midpoint, the Lady Wildcats began to claw their way back, pressuring the Knights into turnovers with a full court press and a very aggressive trap, bringing the deficit to 11 with 8:29 to play.

That push was halted by over seven minutes without a score for B-CU, providing the window for UCF to rebuild their lead en route to a 64-43 win.

Terrenisha Hollis led all Lady Wildcats scorers with 11, the only B-CU player to make double figures. Amanda Hairston logged nine with a team-best eight rebounds, two steals, a pair of assists and a block.
