Gara Bell led the Lady Camels (3-7, 1-0 A-Sun) with a career-high 14 points and a game-high eight rebounds. Campbell was playing its first game since a victory over UNC Wilmington back on December 18 and showed some rust committing 38 turnovers and shooting just 33.3 percent from the floor.

This was the first meeting between the two schools as non-conference foes. Florida Atlantic was a member of the Atlantic Sun before bolting to the Sun Belt this season.

Mistoria Brown and Brittney Crenshaw joined Randolph in double figures for Florida Atlantic (3-11, 0-3 Sun Belt) with 14 points apiece. The Lady Owls shot 51.7 percent from the floor after entering the game shooting just 34.9 percent on the season. FAU's percentage was helped by a handful of layups off Lady Camel turnovers. The Owls scored 47 points off CU turnovers and had 19 fast break points.
Adrienne Rieley's jumper at the 16:03 mark in the first half gave the Lady Camels their largest lead of the game at 10-5. FAU rolled off 13-straight points over the next six minutes grabbing an 18-10 lead with 12:23 to play. Campbell closed the gap back down to four with a basket and pair of free throws from Bell.

The Owls took charge of the game over the remaining of the half with a 30-10 run. Over a 15 minute stretch in the first half, Bell was the only Lady Camel to score; a three-pointer (the first of the half for CU) by Kristin Graham with 31 seconds remaining broke up the drought.

Following the opening minute of the second half, Campbell was not able to cut the deficit under 20 points for the remainder of the game.
Shuteamia Brayboy had nine assists and five of FAU's 24 steals, but committed seven turnovers.

The Lady Owls became just the second team this season to outrebound Campbell holding a slim 37-36 advantage on the glass. Brown led the Owls with seven rebounds, while Marlena Murphy pulled down five behind Bell's eight for CU. Murphy finished with just four points on the game after entering the game with double-doubles in her past four contests.

Campbell returns to the court tomorrow afternoon at 1:00 pm in a rematch against High Point in the consolation game of the tournament. High Point defeated CU 89-74 in Buies Creek on December 16. Letitia Dickson led the Lady Camels with 21 points and Murphy netted 20 in the loss. Leslie Cook paced the Panthers with a career-high 29 points in the first meeting. Ohio, who defeated High Point 82-70, meets FAU at 3:00 in the championship game.
