Box Score ABILENE, TEXAS – And the beat goes on.
 
A fourth straight double-digit scoring game for sophomore guard Emily Holland (Mansfield, Texas), with personal single-game historical proportions thrown in for good measure. A pair of resplendent outings for two newcomers.
 
Storylines that have become familiar for McMurry University fans during a 4-0 start. Holland tossed in 30 points, a career single-game best and most points for a War Hawk since November of last season, hitting six three-pointers and a perfect six-for-six at the free-throw line while grabbing five boards and four assists. Freshman forward/center Aryana Cleveland (San Antonio, Texas) added 14 points and five rebounds, while fellow first-year scholar-athlete Helana Chadwick, a La Vernia, Texas guard, tallied 11 points.
 
Head coach Drew Long's squad, rolling past a fourth straight Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference foe in the form of a 77-59 decision over Austin College, got a massive contribution from senior Taya Bridges (Mesquite, Texas), who had her hand in a little bit of all parts of the winning recipe, tallying 11 points, eight rebounds, four assists, three steals, and a blocked shot.
 
AC kept things close over the first 20 points behind a five-of-seven effort from beyond the arc, making it 32-30 McMurry at the break. However, the War Hawks defensive effort from outside the arc squelched any further 'Roos rallies, limiting the visitors to a one-of-11 attempt in the final 20 minutes.
 
McMurry (4-0) aims for a fifth successive victory against SCAC foes, traveling to Georgetown, Texas, for a 2 p.m. tip-off Saturday, Nov. 26, against Southwestern University.
