BOONEVILLE, MISS. — A cold second quarter proved costly for the ASU Mid-South Lady Greyhounds on Tuesday night, as they fell 69–47 to the Northeast Mississippi Lady Tigers inside The Dog House.

After a competitive opening period, ASU Mid-South mustered just four points in the second quarter, allowing Northeast Mississippi to build a commanding 19-point halftime lead. The Lady Greyhounds were unable to recover despite improved energy in the second half.

ASU Mid-South struggled to find offensive rhythm throughout the night, shooting just 30.2% from the field while committing 24 turnovers. Northeast Mississippi didn't fare much better from the floor at 34.8%, but the Lady Tigers made up the difference from beyond the arc and the free-throw line—knocking down five more three-pointers than the Greyhounds and converting an impressive 94.4% at the stripe.

Northeast Mississippi was led by Nakyiah Walker's 18 points, followed by Maniya Kirksey with 17 and Christina Fulton with 12.
