FAYETTE, Iowa \u2013 Winona State women’s basketball battled for three quarters but a cold offensive fourth period proved costly in a 59\u201349 road loss to Upper Iowa on Tuesday night inside Dorman Memorial Gym.<\/p>\n
How It Happened: Upper Iowa responded quickly in the second quarter behind a hot shooting stretch from Ellie Foster and Ava Privet. The Peacocks hit three early threes to flip the scoreboard, but Winona State countered with a flurry from sophomore guard Sadie Jarmolowicz<\/a>, who drilled three second-quarter triples to keep WSU within striking distance. A late layup from Megan Schuman<\/a> trimmed the deficit to 29\u201328 before UIU scored at the horn to take a 31\u201328 lead into halftime.<\/p>\n The third quarter featured back-and-forth scoring as both teams traded small runs. Winona State surged behind Hailey Markworth<\/a>, who scored eight points in the period and converted three straight field goals to pull the Warriors within 40\u201338. Alayna Suprenand<\/a> added a transition layup to keep WSU close, but Upper Iowa continued to counter from deep, building a 50\u201347 lead heading into the final ten minutes.<\/p>\n The fourth quarter, however, belonged to the Peacocks. Winona State went ice-cold from the field, scoring just two points in the entire period and shooting 1-of-11. UIU capitalized with an 9\u20130 run to open the quarter, stretching the lead to double digits. Despite strong defensive possessions, the Warriors could not find late scoring, as Upper Iowa closed out the 59\u201349 victory.<\/p>\n Statistical Comparison:
