HARTSVILLE, S.C. – In the 2014-15 season finale, the Coker women's basketball team picked up an 82-71 South Atlantic Conference victory over the Tusculum College Pioneers on Saturday (Feb. 28) afternoon.

The first 20 minutes of the game would be a slugfest, as the two teams played to a 41-all tie going into the locker rooms. The second half would be all Coker, as it opened the half with a 12-0 run. The run would prove to be the knockout blow, with Tusculum never getting closer than four points the rest of the game.

In her final game as a Cobra, senior Tanesha Stenson finished with 26 points, eight rebounds, four steals and three assists. Classmate Kelley Godbout chipped in 17 points and six rebounds, while seniors Hailey Yohn, Heidrun Kristmundsdottir, Lakeria Crowder and Priscilla Fenty finished with eight, six, six and four points, respectively.

The win concludes the 2014-15 season for the Cobras.
