Kacee Baumhower helped the Raiders (2-15, 1-6 HL) to their first Horizon League victory of the season with a career-high 23 points on 8-of-12 shooting and a 5-of-6 clip on 3-pointers to go along with eight rebounds and four assists. Bryce Nixon poured in 18 points on a career-best six threes, while Emily Chapman scored 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting and a trio of makes from deep. Lauren Scott and Makiya Miller added six points apiece off the bench.

Wright State turned 15 UDM turnovers into 22 points, collecting eight steals in the process. Baumhower and Miller paced the defensive effort with three steals. Rachel Loobie recorded eight of the Raiders' 30 total rebounds, including four on the offensive end, in just three minutes of action. 

WSU faced a 39-31 halftime deficit after shooting 40 percent (12-of-30) overall while allowing the Titans (3-13, 1-6 HL) to a 51.4% (18-of-35) shooting mark and a 24-to-12 edge in rebounding. 

The Raiders raced out to a 16-3 run coming out of the break to go up 47-42 with 5:33 left in the third quarter. WSU pushed its lead to 56-49 by the end of the quarter, thanks to 10 points by Baumhower and six points on a pair of threes by Nixon.
