K-State women capitalize on turnovers to defeat Montana

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — Kansas State women's basketball held on to defeat Montana on Tuesday and remain unbeaten.

The Wildcats won 67-62 at home against the Grizzlies (1-2).

Montana committed 18 turnovers, and K-State took advantage of them, scoring 22 points off turnovers. Montana managed only 4 points off turnovers.

The first half was a mostly a back-and-forth battle, with neither team ever leading by more than 10 points.

But after halftime, the Wildcats started to pull away.

A turnover by the Grizzlies set up Shaila Nde for a layup early in the third quarter, then Gina Garcia got a steal, which Nde turned into another layup.

K-State led by as many as 17 before the Grizzlies started to claw back. With less than two minutes left in the game, the Wildcats' lead was down to just 2.

But Garcia made a layup, and as Montana fouled in an effort to get the ball back, K-State made three free throws to seal the game.

Taryn Sides led KSU with 18 points, followed by Nde and Nastja Claessens with 15 each. Sides had three steals and Claessens had two to help win the turnover battle.

K-State (4-0) will face Minnesota on Saturday at 1 p.m. You can watch on Big 10+ or listen on the K-State Sports Network.
