BUIES CREEK, N.C. - Shy Tuelle scored a season-high 20 points as Campbell defeated Hofstra 65-51 Sunday afternoon at Gore Arena.

The Camels made 13 total threes on the day led by Tuelle who made six and Brittany Staves who connected on four shots from deep.

Campbell opened the game with back-to-back threes and led by 10 as Staves knocked down her second midway through the first period. Hofstra battled back and ended the second quarter on a 10-3 run to cut Campbell's lead to 34-33 at the half.

The Pride took its first lead of the game after the break and led by as many as four after consecutive baskets from Zyheima Swint and Brooke Anya. Campbell bounced back and regained the lead by the end of the third quarter as Svenia Nurenberg scored on a layup through contact and converted the free throw while Tuelle drained a three.

Campbell gained plenty of breathing room in the fourth quarter, opening the period on an 11-2 run that featured consecutive threes by Staves. Tuelle, who went 3-of-3 from behind the arc in the final quarter, gave the Camels its largest lead of the day with her sixth three of the day.
