Hishaw's Career Day Not Enough in Loss to Hutchinson

Coffeyville, Kan. - The Coffeyville Community College women's basketball was unable to complete the regular season sweep of Hutchinson, falling at Nellis Hall 82-69 on Saturday afternoon, despite a career day from sophomore Aubrey Hishaw.

The Ravens began the day with a strong start, leading the Dragons 9-2 four minutes in. The game was tightly contested the entire afternoon, with CCC leading by one after the first quarter, and Hutchinson holding four point leads at both halftime and the end of the third quarter. The Blue Dragons would score 28 points in the fourth quarter, propelling them to 23rd win of the season.

Hishaw finished with a career-high 34 points in the loss, shooting 14-of-25 from the field, along with eight rebounds and four assists. Esme Smith finished with 18 points and 12 rebounds, while Hallie Kitchen had nine points. Sophomore Karliey Parker returned to action following an injury, finishing with six points and three assists in 24 minutes.

The Lady Ravens drop to 19-8 on the season, and will have their regular season home finale on Wednesday night against the Pratt Beavers. CCC is tied with Seward County for the fourth seed in the conference, but holds the tiebreaker after a 2-0 sweep of the Saints this season.
