Salisbury NC - November 20, 2008 The Lady Blue Bears invited the Lady Vikings of Elizabeth City State University into their den and slowly closed the door on them.

Livingstone (2-1, 1-1 CIAA) struggled in the first half but managed to end the half down ten points, 37-27.

The Lady Vikings’ opened up with a 9-0 run in the first period. Calling the first timeout, Head Coach Angelyne Brown of Livingstone tried to throw a wrinkle in the quick offensive execution of the Lady Vikings. Livingstone’s first points came from senior, shooting guard, Asheka Hudson (Milwaukee, WI) with a drive to the hole. Starting off slow, Livingstone continued to work defensively to force the Lady Viking into 12 first half turnovers.

 

With a defensive aggression, the Lady Blue Bears came back in the second half with a half court press to force Lady Vikings’ turnovers. The Lady Blue Bears forced an essential turnover, by guard Chelsea Johnson (Tallahassee, FL) which gave the ladies their first lead of the game, 61-60.
