Box Score Courtney Tyus poured in a game-high 21 points, but Austin College used a 19-4 run during the latter stages of the first half and went on to record a 78-64 victory over Colorado College on Friday night at Reid Arena.

The Tigers cut their deficit to eight points twice during the second half, first on a layup by junior guard Katie Waters with 10:44 to play, and then on a three-pointer by sophomore forward Korbyn Ukasick with 8:35 to go.

That, however, proved to be as close as CC would get.

The Roos answered with a 10-2 run and built a 70-54 lead after junior forward Briana Harvey scored two of her 11 points on a layup with 5:48 remaining.

Tyus made six of 11 field-goal attempts and seven of eight free throws to eclipse the 20-point mark for the second time this season. She also added nine assists and a pair of blocked shots.

The senior guard climbed past Eliese Hansberry (2006-10) and Kris Lund (1980-84) into 15th place on the program's all-time scoring list with 943 points.

Junior forward Danielle Davis reached double figures for the 13th time in 16 games and finished with 13 points.
