Kistler leads WNCC women to fourth win of season

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Amber Kistler poured in 15 points and the Western Nebraska Community College women’s basketball team had no trouble with the Pac West all-stars with a thundering 92-32 win in the final day of the Air Force Prep tournament Saturday.

Kister was one of five players to record double-digit scoring in the win. Tiffany Moorer and Thais Pinto each had 12 points followed by Stormye Everett with 11 points and Carolina Alves with 10 points.

Everett also finished with 12 rebounds and six assists, while Khayla Gladney had eight rebounds to go with six points. Yuki Morimoto finished with five assists and six steals, while Tynetta Turner had nine rebounds.

WNCC assistant coach Jenifer Pedersen said this was a good game for the team to work on different offensive schemes.

“It was a pretty easy win, but it was good for us to work on offensive options we have to be able to do know,” she said. “This was a good game for our kids.”

The win was never in doubt from the get go as the Cougars vaulted to a commanding 54-13 halftime lead. The Cougars allowed just 19 points in the second half.

WNCC finished with 27 offensive rebounds and had just two 3-pointers, one each from Everett and Kistler.

The No. 15th-ranked Cougars, 4-0, will be back in action next weekend when they travel back to the Air Force Prep tournament to face Air Force Prep and Midland College.
