GOLDEN, Colo. -- December 2, 2016 -- Colorado School of Mines (5-5, 1-0 RMAC) outshot and outrebounded the Chadron State College Eagle women's basketball team Friday night at Lockridge arena, as CSC dropped to 0-4 (0-1 RMAC) in an 81-63 loss.

Keren Boyce hit two of three field goals in the opening period, and Keeley Pearce, Kendra Baucom, and Leticia Rodriguez each made their only field goal attempts. Kalli Feddersen was 4-for-4 from the free throw line, as the Eagles put together their best offensive quarter of the season so far.

The progress came undonw in the second and third periods, as they hit for just 6-of-33 over the next 20 minutes, letting the early lead slip away.

The Orediggers led by as many as 27 in the second half, but eight points by Erin Graham and five from Kylah Collins in the last six minutes cut the margin of victory to 18 points.

Graham led the Eagles in scoring for the first time in three weeks, getting 15 points on 8-of-16 shooting. Kalli Feddersen finished with 13.
