November 19, 2014

At halftime, women's basketball leads No. 3 Notre Dame 30-29.

No. 14 MSU and Notre Dame got out to a quick start, as MSU sophomore guard Tori Jankoska drilled two threes before the first media timeout. Notre Dame’s standout junior guard Jewell Loyd scored eight of her team’s first ten points.

Scoring slowed down a bit after the first media timeout, and MSU and Notre Dame exchanged leads for the rest of the half.

The Spartan defense slowed down Notre Dame’s highly-touted freshman forward Brianna Turner, holding her to zero first half points. Turner scored 29 in Notre Dame’s opener.

Sophomore forward Aerial Powers and Jankoska leads MSU in scoring with 13 points, and Loyd has carried the Fighting Irish, scoring 14 of the team’s 29 points.
