Dailey’s Sharp-Shooting Helps EMU Cruise Past UIW, 66-47

The Toledo, Ohio native connected seven three-pointers for a total of 25 points
SAN ANTONIO, Texas (EMUEagles.com) -- The Eastern Michigan University women's basketball team wrapped up its three-game stint in the Lone Star State with a 66-47 win Tuesday, Nov. 29, over the University of Incarnate Word at the McDermott Convocation Center. The win moved EMU to a 3-4 on the season, while the Cardinals fell to 0-5.
Led by junior Sasha Dailey's (Toledo, Ohio-Rogers) 16 first half points, the Eagles jumped out to a commanding 31-21 halftime lead. Dailey shot an impressive 5-for-9 from the floor in the opening stanza, including 5-of-7 from beyond the arc. The Toledo, Ohio product finished with seven makes from distance, a tally that is tied for fifth-most in EMU single-game history. The last Eagle to do so was Tavelyn James, when she set the program-record with 10 treys against Kent State University, Feb. 11, 2012.
Senior Phillis Webb (Brooklyn Park, Minn.-Osseo) just missed a double-double with 11 points and nine rebounds in the victory. Sheyna Deans (Detroit, Mich.-Mt. Clemens-St. Clair County C.C.) and Tori Easley (Toledo, Ohio-Rogers) also reach double figures in points with 11 and 10, respectively. Junior Micah Robinson (Ann Arbor, Mich.-Huron) anchored a stingy Eagles' defense with 11 rebounds to go along with five assists.
The Eagles picked up a 24-12 advantage in the paint, 13-8 advantage on second chance points, 8-0 advantage on fast break points, 7-3 advantage on bench points and a 50-39 rebounding advantage.
Shooting woes plagued the Cardinals as UIW shot just 27.0 percent from the field. In stark comparison, the Eagles shot 40.3 percent from the floor, including 52.9 percent in the first quarter, and secured an early 22-8 advantage after one period.
The Cardinals held Eastern Michigan to only nine points in the second quarter on 21.4 percent from the floor. Despite poor shooting, the Eagles capitalized on a 28-19 rebounding edge to take a 31-21 advantage into the break. Eastern Michigan charged out of the locker room in the second half and pushed their lead to as many as 27 points before both sides cleared their respective benches in the fourth quarter.
After a week in San Antonio, the Eagles return home to host the University of Detroit Mercy. Game time is scheduled for 7 p.m. at the Convocation and will be broadcast on WEMU (89.1 FM) as well as ESPN3. For tickets, call 734.487.2282 or visit EMUEagles.com.
