Through the first six games of the APSU women’s basketball season, the Governors have yet to find a go-to player on offense. According to head coach David Midlick, that is exactly what they strive for.
The Govs held their first game in two weeks on Saturday, Jan. 2, defeating the Eastern Kentucky Colonels at home 69-51.
“We were excited to be able to get back at home and play a game,” Midlick said. “It’s been a while since we’ve played, and it’s a short turnaround for Monday night.”
APSU forward Maggie Knowles paced the Governors in scoring with 22, but was just three points ahead of senior Brianah Ferby. Ferby finished the contest with 19, the fifth time she has scored double digits in a game this season.
