Second half three point shooting lifts UMES over Florida A&M

UMES Lady Hawks and fans are all smiles after defeating the Lady Rattlers earlier.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - The University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) Lady Hawks used an impressive second half shooting display to knock off Florida A&M University (FAMU) 60-50 on Saturday afternoon in the Gaither Athletic Center.

UMES (9-8, 2-2 MEAC) spoiled the Rattlers homecoming by converting seven-of-11 (63.6 percent) from downtown and 14-of-22 (63.6) from the field in the second half.

"I thought both the effort and the energy were better in the second half," said Head Coach Fred Batchelor. "We were able to knock down some shots, which I thought gave us a lot of confidence and swung the momentum in our favor."
