Hutch Women Too Much for Seward

The Lady Dragons came out smoking shooting 56 percent from the field in the first half on the way to a 73-51 win over #7 Seward Wednesday night in the Hutchinson Sports Arena. The Lady Saints shot just 28 percent and and just 19 percent in the second half shooting 5-26 in the second half. Seward trailed 41-31 at halftime.

Hutch has 36 consecutive conference wins and wins the conference for the fifth consecutive season and has gone undefeated in conference in three of the past four years.

Seward falls to 25-4 and finishes 13-3 in the Jayhawk West. Seward won a coin flip for the #2 seed in the west to stay opposite of the Lady Dragons in the bracket.
