Women's Basketball Falls Short at Home Against Sterling

NORTH NEWTON, Kan.—The Bethel College women's basketball team fell 73-60 to Sterling College on Wednesday night in Thresher Gym. Despite a strong performance from Caryn Yoder and Kendall Locke, the Threshers (12-11, 11-6 KCAC) were unable to slow down Sterling's high-powered offense.

Yoder led Bethel with 13 points, five rebounds, and four assists, while Locke added 12 points and seven rebounds. Madyson McKinzie also contributed 11 points, but the Threshers struggled to keep up with Sterling's efficient shooting and rebounding.

How It Happened

Sterling jumped out to an early 21-12 lead after the first quarter and maintained control throughout the game. Bethel cut the deficit to 37-30 at halftime behind key baskets from Yoder and Locke.

However, Sterling controlled the second half, shooting 50% from the field and outscoring Bethel in both the third and fourth quarters. The Warriors dominated the rebounding battle 43-26 and capitalized on second-chance opportunities, limiting Bethel's ability to close the gap.

Sterling's Korynn Clason led all scorers with 34 points, shooting 12-of-22 from the field.

  • Bethel shot 36.5% from the field and 29.2% from three-point range.
