ROLLA, MO- In their final home weekend of the season, the Miners will host the Greyhounds of Indianapolis this Thursday and Saturday.

After trailing by as much as 11 in the first half, S&T made a huge offensive comeback in the third and fourth quarters to get within two points of McKendree. But, late free-throws from the Bearcats would give them the 86-81 win.

In the game, Alex Kerr (St. Louis, Mo./St. Joseph's Academy) led the way for the Miners with 20 points and 13 rebounds while Kristen Keys (St. Louis, MO/Westminster Christian Academy) added in 19 points. As a team, S&T went a perfect 20-20 from the free-throw line while forcing the Bearcats into 14 turnovers that led to 18 unanswered points.

For the season, Laura Rodriguez (Gran Canaria, Spain/Baloncesto Torrelodones) and Alex Kerr (St. Louis, Mo./St. Joseph's Academy) have led the Miners, offensively, with 15.9 and 14.8 points/game, respectively, while Kerr has been the leading force for S&T on the boards with 182 total rebounds.
