WILLMAR -- Kelsey Guetter led four Lady Warriors in double figures as Ridgewater topped Western Wisconsin Tech 59-47 in a women's junior college basketball game on Wednesday night, 59-47.
The Lady Warriors (8-11) piled up points inside. Guetter popped in 16 points, Kari Caspers added 13 points, Brianna Jacobson had 12, on 6-of-6 shooting, and Chelsey Voorhees finished with 10.
Ridgewater tried only two three-pointers, missing both.
The sloppy play rang up over two dozen turnovers by each side. Ridgwater was playing for the first time in a week because of weather postponements.
The Cavaliers (6-14) trailed just 20-18 at halftime but with a short bench couldn't match Ridgewater's up tempo play the second half.
