KeKe Wright had her best game of her junior college career, as she scored 20 points on the evening. She led the Pronghorns (14-9, 6-3) to a 56-31 win over Dawson Community College (3-14, 2-8) on Saturday night.

Gillette College had a strong game defensively, causing Dawson CC to commit a couple shot clock violations on the evening. The Pronghorns played full court press most of the night, not giving the Lady Bucs many looks or time to set up their offense. Dawson CC was only 28.6 percent from the floor and 16.7 percent from the line. Gillette out-rebounded Dawson Community College 44 to 31. More importantly, the Pronghorns out rebounded the Lady Buccaneers on the defensive side, 28-17.


Only one three-pointer was made in the game between the two teams, coming off the hands of Teja Mangum of the Lady Bucs.


The Pronghorns were 44.6 percent from the field and 54.5 percent from the free throw line.


Gillette College stayed fresh throughout the game, as Coach Will Rider rotated out players often. Every Pronghorn got at least 15 minutes of action in the game. That helped out the Pronghorns as well. The Lady Bucs had two players play 31 minutes or more, with Hallie Westgard playing all but three minutes of the game.


Gillette College travels to Miles City, MT on Wednesday to take on the Lady Pioneers of Miles Community College next. The Pronghorns defeated the Lady Pioneers at home, 58-55, on Jan. 7.
