Atiana Cook played a strong floor game with nine points, 10 rebounds, five assists, and three steals.
"I was really happy with how hard we played and the energy level we brought to the game," said women's coach Michael Dominguez. "We made some lineup changes and we were missing a key player on our team, so you never know how those things will affect the team but I'm really happy with how we stepped up and played together last night. I thought our defense was really good and we did a great job containing the shooting threats of Tonkawa."
The Lady Jets built a 36-28 halftime lead and extended that lead to 57-41 lead after three quarters. The lead expanded to 64-45 before the Lady Mavs cut into the Lady Jet lead late.
