Panthers go cold, lose fourth straight game at Wright State
FAIRBORN, Ohio (MILWAUKEE ATHLETICS) – It was a back-and-forth first half, but the shots were not falling after the break for the Milwaukee women s basketball team as it fell 56-49 to Wright State on Saturday afternoon. It s been a struggle for us shooting percentage-wise for a little while, head coach Kyle Rechlicz commented. We re getting a lot of shots up and hitting a lot of shots in practice, but the rim looks a little smaller when playing in games.
The Panthers (15-5, 12-4 Horizon League) finished just 6-for-27 (22.2 percent) from the floor in the second half but kept it close at the line, hitting 10 of 11 attempts.
