Lady Griz drill 14 3s, beat Bobcats

MISSOULA — This time there would be no comeback.

Just as the Lady Griz did in Bozeman last month Montana raced out to a lead over Montana State — and this time they kept it, rolling to a 72-50 victory  Saturday afternoon at Dahlberg Arena in Missoula.

Three Montana starters struck for 14 points and the Lady Griz did their usual damage from the 3-point line, going 14 for 27 (.519). Their work on the defensive end turned the game into a rout, with the Bobcats held to 21 second-half points.
