COLUMBUS, Ohio - No. 24 Lubbock Christian shot a season-high 62.3 percent from the floor as they defeated the No. 20 University of North Georgia women's basketball team, 99-54, Tuesday night in the Elite Eight quarterfinal at Ohio Dominican's Alumni Hall.

The Nighthawks and Lady Chaps traded buckets for the first three minutes of the game. With the score tied, 9-9, LCU went on a 19-2 run that spanned five minutes in the first quarter to take the lead for good.
