Shawnee, Okla. -- Alexia Kelley posted her fifth double-double of the season and Ashlee Ferguson scored a team-high 22 points to lead the Mid-America Christian University Lady Evangels to a 75-62 victory over the St. Gregory's University Cavaliers in a Sooner Athletic Conference action today (Dec. 6) at the W.P. Wood Field House in Shawnee, Okla. 

The Lady Evangels got down by eight in the first half but three consecutive buckets by Kelley during the final minute helped forge a 34-34 tie at the break. 

Down 42-41 at the 15:57 mark of the second half, the Lady Evangels exploded for a 22-3 burst during the next nine minutes to take a commanding 63-45 lead.  

Felicia Foster hit a three to ignite the spurt and eight straight points from Shakayla Love finished off the run. 

The Lady Evangels (6-2, 1-1 SAC) cruised from that point and built the lead as high as 75-56 on a basket by Foster with 1:19 left. 

Ferguson's 22 points came on 7-of-14 shooting overall from the field, 4-of-9 from the perimeter and a perfect 4-of-4 at the charity stripe.  Kelley had 16 points on 7-of-12 shooting to go along with a game-high 11 rebounds. Love made all eight of her field-goal attempts to score 17 points.
