DURANT, Okla. – Katie Webb and Kamryn Cantwell each turned in 24-point performances and Southeastern put together a late rally but was unable to get the final shot to fall in a 94-92 loss on Tuesday afternoon in Bloomer Sullivan Arena.

The loss drops the Savage Storm to 5-4 overall on the season and 3-2 in Great American Conference play heading into the Christmas Break.

Katie Branam followed with 16 points, while Briley Moon came off the bench with 12.

Webb's 15 rebounds led all defenders, while she also paced the team in assists with five with Cantwell and Moon adding three each.

After trading buckets early, a 7-0 HSU run would stake them to an 11-4 lead.
