Thornton, Stacy, Wurth lead No. 1 Transy Women's Basketball to season opening win at Depauw

GREENCASTLE, Ind. - No. 1 Transylvania Women's Basketball won their season opener and extended the longest winning streak in NCAA DIII to 34 games with a 60-50 road victory at Depauw on Sunday afternoon. Three different Pioneers reached double digit points in the win.

Transy went into the second quarter up 16-13 and had their defense put on a clinic. The Pioneers held the Tigers to just four points in the second quarter, and began the quarter with a 9-2 run. TU would go into the half up 32-17.

Transylvania would be outscored 8-12 in the third quarter and twenty-one to twenty in the final quarter, but the dominant first half proved to be too much for the Tigers.

With the win, Transylvania picks up their first ever win in program history over Depauw, and snaps a 13 game season opening win streak for the Tigers. It's the 370th career win for head coach Juli Fulks.

Transylvania was led by Dasia Thornton who finished with 15 points and two rebounds away from a double-double. Thornton had 3 blocks in the win. Kennedi Stacy finished with 13 points and 3 assists. Sadie Wurth finished with 12 points and 6 rebounds. Kennedy Harris scored 6 points off the bench.

The Pioneers return to the court in 13 days when they host the Pat Deacon Classic on November 25th-26th. Transy will face Maryville College on the 25th at 1 PM.
