OWINGS MILLS, Md. – Jazmine Miller accomplish a rare feat in Wesley women's basketball history but it was not enough as the Wolverines fell to Stevenson University, 63-42, Wednesday night in Capital Athletic Conference action. Wesley falls to 5-15 on the season and 2-9 in the CAC while the Mustangs improve to 8-12 overall and 4-8 in league play. Miller scored 24 points on 9-of-15 shooting, with 21 coming in the second half to lead all scorers. When Miller hit a pair of free throws with 2:50 left in regulation to make the score 61-36 in favor of the Mustangs, Miller scored her 800th career point. The junior from Dover, Del., is now just one of three players in school history ( Nicky Benton '01 and Cory Boyd '11) to record at least 800 points, 400 rebounds, 200 assists and 200 steals in their career. Aleisha Hobbs added nine points while Rachelle Allen chipped in with five points, nine rebounds, five assists and four steals. The CAC leader in steals at 3.6 per game, Allen is just nine swipes away from matching Benton's single-season school record of 80 steals that was set in the 1998-99 season. The Wolverines shot just 29.4% for the game but made 52.2% of their shots in the second half to outscore the Mustangs 33-27 in the period. Wesley made just 3-of-28 from the field in the first half and went into the break down 36-9. Stevenson held the Wolverines without a field goal until Allen made a fast break layup with 4:59 left in the first half to make the score, 28-4. Wesley returns to Wentworth Gymnasium when it hosts Frostburg State on Saturday, February 4 at pm.
