Reivers Thump Panthers in Iowa Falls

Iowa Falls, Iowa

Three Reivers scored in double figures and Iowa Western grabbed another double-digit victory in a 65-31 win over Ellsworth.

IWCC dominated from the go, holding the Panthers to just nine first-half points, four in the first and five in the second.  In comparison, the Reivers poured in 16 each of the first two quarters before ratcheting up the attack for 22 in the third.

Center Isnelle Natabou had another solid game.  The freshman from Česká Lípa, Czech Republic poured in a game-high 12 points and grabbed five rebounds, while Ruba Abo Hashesh dropped double-digits again off the bench with 11 and Geassy Germano added 10.

Gabriella Smith and Arielle McElroy each had a team-high eight rebounds while the Reivers were just shy of the 20 assist mark.  Hayley Berfield dished on six of the 18 helpers in the game.

Ayreona Carter, playing for the first time in nearly a month, added nine points and five rebounds in a reserve role for Head Coach Lindsey Vande Hoef.

IWCC (11-2, 11-1) won their sixth straight ICCAC game, while Ellsworth (3-9, 3-9) dropped their second straight after winning back-to-back games previously.

Next up for the Reivers is a 5:00 pm tip-off against Northeast at Reiver Arena on Wednesday night as part of a double-header with the men's team.  Both games can be watched on the Reiver Sports Network.
