LAWTON, Okla. (December 13, 2025) \u2013 No. 3 Lubbock Christian University completed its first weekend of Lone Star Conference road play by leaning on defense, depth and timely shot-making in a 61\u201345 victory over Cameron on Saturday afternoon inside Aggie Gym.
\n\u00a0
\nThe Lady Chaps (11\u20130, 4\u20130 LSC) erased an early nine-point deficit and took control with a decisive 22\u20132 run spanning the first and second quarters, a surge that included a 16\u20130 stretch and fueled a dominant second period in which Cameron went scoreless from the field. LCU outscored the Aggies 17\u20134 in the second quarter, capitalizing on a stretch of 14 consecutive missed shots by Cameron, to build a halftime lead it would not relinquish. The Lady Chaps limited Cameron to 29.6 percent shooting for the game, forced 14 turnovers and held a 13\u20139 edge in points off turnovers, pushed the margin to as many as 23 points in the fourth quarter, and finished the day shooting 46.7 percent from three-point range while extending their road winning streak to 14 games dating back to last season.
\n\u00a0
\nFreshman Meg Meekins<\/a> led LCU with 16 points on 6-of-12 shooting, including 2-of-3 from three-point range. She scored eight points in the opening quarter to steady the Lady Chaps early, added six rebounds and posted a game-best +18 plus\/minus, marking her eighth double-figure scoring effort of the season. Martie McCoy<\/a> followed with 14 points, knocking down two threes and drawing nine fouls, while Kennedy Chappell<\/a> filled the stat sheet with 11 points, seven rebounds, three assists and three steals.
\n\u00a0
\nCameron (0\u20139, 0\u20133 LSC), playing just seven athletes, was led by Madison Griggs’ 21 points on 7-of-21 shooting. Ayonna Cooper added nine points and seven rebounds, while Aminata Diallo chipped in eight points. The Aggies struggled at the line, converting just 8 of 17 free throws (47.1%), and were outscored 11\u20130 by LCU’s bench.<\/p>\n

Lubbock Christian’s Tia Johnson<\/a> and Meekins each scored crucial buckets, including a 3-pointer by Meekins at 2:10, narrowing the gap.
