Joliet, IL- #4 RVC Women's Basketball comes out on top on Monday night 63-61 over Joliet Junior College. The Golden Eagles improve to 14-6 overall and (4-0) in N4C play.

The Golden Eagles earned a hard fought win against the Wolves on Monday evening. "We battled last night and on the road that's exactly what you have to do. We won the rebounding battle, we won the 50/50 plays, we shot over 70% as a team from the free-throw line, and we took a couple big charges." Stated Watkins.

The Golden Eagles would control the tempo of the game playing in transition when needed or slowing the ball down executing half court sets. "I know this may sound like a broken record to the ladies but we preach to them that road wins are tough to come by and we have to control what we can control to put ourselves in the best spot to be successful to win those basketball games." Stated Watkins

The Golden Eagles saw 6 of its players score from 8-17 points and were led by freshman Hannah Malcomson (17 points) and sophomore Samantha Harris (10 points).
