With the win, Ball State moved to 4-0 for the season while Memphis fell to 2-2. The Cardinals held the Tigers to under 40 points most of the contest.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the game, Ball State had four players reach double figures, sophomore\u00a0Grace Kingery<\/a><\/dfn>\u00a0led the Cardinals offensively with a season best 22 points while shooting 6-of-11 (.545) from behind the arc.\u00a0Karsyn Norman<\/a><\/dfn>\u00a0dropped in 14 points while\u00a0Aniss Tagayi<\/a><\/dfn>\u00a0chipped in 12 and\u00a0Tessa Towers<\/a><\/dfn>\u00a0ended the day with 11.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

Defensively,\u00a0Bree Salenbien<\/a><\/dfn>\u00a0continues to lead the pack as she pulled down 11 rebounds including nine on the defensive side of the court. Towers ended the day with 10 for her second double-double of the season.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ball State was assertive on the glass pulling down 62 rebounds, which ties the program record for second most rebounds in a single game. The last time the Cardinals achieved that goal was in 2017 against Oakland City. <\/p>\n\n\n

The Cardinals set the tone early as Ball State outpaced Memphis, 28-13 in the opening quarter of play.\u00a0Kingery dropped 16 points in the first half alone as the Cardinals were unstoppable in the third quarter tacking on 16 more points to take an impressive 22-point (44-22) cushion over the Tigers at intermission.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

After the break, Ball State continued its fast-paced offense, outscoring Memphis 24-to-10. Ball State also played strong defensively, as Memphis struggled to get any offense going and the Cardinals would end the third quarter up, 68-32. <\/p>\n\n\n

The final frame mimicked the other three quarters with\u00a0Ashlynn Brooke<\/a><\/dfn>\u00a0knocking down a 3-pointer for the Cardinals’ 83rd<\/sup>\u00a0point.\u00a0The Tigers are back home\u00a0this Tuesday, November 18, at 7 p.m. to take on the 13th-ranked Ole Miss Rebels. The game will be broadcast on ESPN+.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
