Queens Of The Road: AC Runs Road Record To 13-0

MISENHEIMER, N.C. -- No. 5 Anderson College rallied from a five-point deficit in the second half to beat Pfeiffer 90-84 Thursday night. The victory, Anderson's 18th straight, improves the Lady Trojans to 28-2 overall and 19-1 in the CVAC. Anderson finishes the regular season 13-0 on the road. "I am extremely proud of this team and the way we have played on the road," said Anderson head coach Kevin Pederson. "We've done a lot of things that have never been done at Anderson before. We now have a shot to get 30 wins. A lot of coaches and players never get the chance to have a 30-win season. To have a chance at 30 wins with a young team is pretty special." Anderson has scored 90 or more points 17 times this season. The Lady Trojans have topped 90 points in seven of their last eight games. The Lady Trojans were led by Deidra Langston, who scored a game-high 29 points. Langston, a sophomore from Gainesville, Ga., made 12 of 20 shots from the floor, one shot from behind the arc, and all four of her free throw attempts. LaShonda Chiles added 25 points for Anderson for her 28th double-figure scoring game this season. Chiles, a sophomore from Greenwood, has scored 20 or more points in 12 of Anderson's last 13 games. Deanna Thompson tallied 15 points, and Shemika Reed scored 14 for AC. Pfeiffer, 8-18 and 7-12, was led by Chelsea Sikes with 20 points and seven assists and Loni McClelland with 19 points. Pfeiffer shot 60 percent from the field, while Anderson managed 51 percent. But the Falcons committed 28 turnovers that led to 24 points for Anderson. The Lady Trojans made 14 of 18 from the free throw line, 13 of 15 in the second half. Stephanie Ponds was Anderson's leading rebounder with seven. In the last 45 games they have scored 80 or more points, the Lady Trojans are 45-0. Anderson's next game will be in the quarterfinal round of the 2005 CVAC Tournament.
