St. Louis girls at Arkansas State key big upset




St. Louis natives Shania Hurst (Kirkwood) and Meghan Lewis (McCluer South-Berkeley) were instrumental in Arkansas State's 80-79 upset road victory over Kansas State last night in Manhattan. The starting backcourt combined to score 24 points to help ASU to the big road victory.

Lewis, a sophomore guard, provided the heroics by hitting a 3-pointer with 9.6 seconds left in the overtime period. She finished with eight points on the evening. Hurst, a 5'10" sophomore guard, finished the game with 16 points, three rebounds and two assists.

Arkansas State's starting frontcourt also features two other players from the Show-Me State. Senior forward Lyndsay Schulp played her prep ball at Jefferson City Helias while 6'4" sophomore center Lynsay Henke was a former standout at Jefferson City Blair Oaks.
