Goodwell, Okla. – The Central Christian College women's basketball team wrapped up their latest road trip on Saturday with a hard fought loss to the Oklahoma Panhandle State University Aggies.

Three of the four quarters were tightly contested, but the Tigers had a rough 10 minutes out of the halftime intermission that was ultimately their undoing. They trailed the Aggies by just one point, 17-6, after the first quarter, but bounced back in the second to win the quarter 14-11 and take a two point lead into halftime, 30-28.

After the intermission, the Tigers struggled on both ends of the floor. The Aggies outscored the Tigers 22-12 to get back on top in the third quarter, then rode that to a 59-47 win.
