JOHNSON C. SMITH SPOILS LADY BULLDOGS HOME DEBUT
LADY GOLDEN BULLS TAKE 76-63 CONFERENCE WIN OVER BOWIE STATE




(BOWIE, Md. – December 3, 2011) Senior Juliette Turner recorded a career-high 23 points to go along with 16 rebounds and sophomore Chanet Wallace added a career-high 16 points and 16 rebounds in Bowie State's 76-63 home opening loss to Johnson C. Smith University.


Johnson C. Smith (6-1, 1-0 CIAA) led the majority of the game, except for the first 4:15 of the contest. With the scored tied at 6-6, the JCSU Lady Golden Bulls went on an 11-3 run to give them a little cushion by the 11 minute mark of the first half.


The JCSU lead grew to a first period high of 13 (27-14) and pretty much held a double-digit lead until freshman Alisha Burley nailed a half court 3-pointer to close out the first 20 minutes. Johnson C. Smith went into the break with a 36-29 advantage.


Bowie State and Johnson C. Smith were pretty much even in terms of first half field goals as the Lady Bulldogs went 11-of-34 (32 percent) while the Lady Golden Bulls went 12-of-34 (35 percent) from the floor.


Johnson C. Smith began the second half with a 13-0 burst before a Wallace free throw stopped the BSU scoring drought over the first eight minutes. A 3-point field goal by JCSU’s Terran Quattlebaum extended the visitors lead to a game-high 20 points on the Lady Bulldogs next possession.


The Bowie State duo of Turner and Wallace cut the Lady Bulldogs deficit to 10 with just over nine minutes left to play, but that’s as close as the home team would get.


Bowie State’s field goal shooting percentage fell to 29 percent in the final period, making 12-of-42 from the floor and ended the afternoon hitting 23-of-76 (30 percent).

The Lady Golden Bulls offense wasn’t the greatest either over the final 20 minutes. JCSU made just 10-of-32 from the floor, but used 18-of-28 free throws to help hold of BSU. Johnson C. Smith went to the charity stripe 42 times in the game, converting 27 compared to 13-of-21 overall for Bowie State.


Bowie State (0-4, 0-1 CIAA) outscored Johnson C. Smith 30-18 in the paint but the Lady Golden Bulls bench outscored the Lady Bulldogs bench 25-7.


Shavonda Price led Johnson C. Smith with 23 points, which included 14-of-16 from the free throw line and tied for team-high rebound honors with nine. Quattlebaum and Phyllis Jenson scored in double figures adding 14 and 12 points respectively. JCSU’s April Smith and LaKendra Wilkerson matched Price’s rebound total of nine.


Senior Kimberly Jones scored in double figures for the second time this season, contributing10 points and grabbed a career-high eight rebounds.


Senior Cortney Baynard handed out a team-high four assists and junior Jasmine Jacobs provided three assists.


The Lady Bulldogs return to the hardwood Monday (December 5th) traveling across town to face the undefeated Lady Firebirds of the University of the District of Columbia at 6 pm.
