TUPELO, Miss. — The Delta State Lady Statesmen easily advanced to Saturday's semifinals with a 52-28 demolishing of the Alabama-Huntsville Lady Chargers in Thursday's opening game.

The Lady Chargers made just two field goals and hit a pair of free throws for 7 second-half points. They shot 17.5 percent for the game. Including a 2-of-23 effort in the second half. UAH shot 6 percent from beyond the arc.

UAH scored its first field goal in the second half at the 10-minute mark after going 0-13 from the field. That cut the DSU lead to 41-24.

To make matters worse for UAH, they had 25 turnovers. Delta State had 22 points off turnovers. The Lady Statesmen had 20 turnovers themselves, but shot a little better with 37.5 percent from the field.

Lawanda Stewart led Delta with 11 points.

DSU moves on to face the winner of tonight's West Florida-West Alabama matchup Saturday at 12:30 p.m.
