RUSTON — Ten Lady Techsters scored for Louisiana Tech during the Lady Techsters' 86-41 win over LSU Alexandria on Monday afternoon in the Thomas Assembly Center.
 
Robyn Lee grabbed the game's final rebound right before time expired to secure her second double-double of the season and finished with a game-high 20 points and 10 rebounds with three assists.
 
Louisiana Tech (7-4) got on the board quickly when Lee grabbed the first of 20 Lady Techsters' offensive rebounds and made a jumper in the paint just 16 seconds into the contest. A 3-pointer by Lee made the lead double-digits for the first time at 13-3 to force LSU Alexandria (11-4, 8-3 RRAC) to use a timeout.
 
Tech started 4-9 from the field but quickly went cold out of the timeout. The Lady Techsters would finish just 2-12 the remainder of the quarter. However, eight turnovers by the Generals and three LA Tech blocks helped the lead grow to 21-7 at the end of the first.
 
Sydney Thomas and Autumn Smith came off the bench in the second quarter to spark the Techsters' 3-point shooting in the second. Each finished with two of the five made threes in the second; Lee had the other. LA Tech would take a 43-18 lead into the locker room.
 
Louisiana Tech's offense continued to improve through the third quarter, shooting 58.8 percent (10-17) from the field to increase the lead to 66-29 heading into the final stanza. From there, the Techsters continued to shake off the rust of an 11-day break with a 46.67 clip in the fourth.
 
For the game, Tech shot 41.7 percent (30-72), 9-29 from long range, and 70.8 percent from the free throw line. Smith, Isla Aiery, and Jordan Marshall finished in double figures. Smith hit four 3s for 12 points, and Airey had 11 with six boards and two blocks. Marshall almost finished with her fourth double-double of the year with 10 points and nine boards.
 
Paris Bradley and Jianna Morris had five assists apiece. Bradley added eight points and five steals, while Morris had seven points.
 
LSUA shot 27.3 percent from the field, 28.6 from deep, and 70 from the charity stripe. Jewel Jones led the Generals with eight points and seven boards, and Bria Raymond had seven.
 
QUOTABLES
Head Coach Brooke Stoehr

"It was good to get back in a game situation today after the break. I was pleased with our conditioning and the way we moved the ball. I felt like we started the game with a solid focus and intensity. There were some good teaching moments, and we'll use those to continue to prepare for conference play. The emphasis for this group will be continued growth on the defensive end and being able to use our experiences from the non-conference games to help us as we start with a blank slate on Thursday."
