FIU women’s basketball dominates conference play (includes video story)

The 9-2 FIU women’s basketball team is storming through conference play en route to the Conference USA tournament.

The squad’s momentum is riding high after Saturday’s dominating win over Louisiana Tech.

After going down to the wire against them on the road earlier this month, the Panthers looked stronger on their home turf.

A 24-9 run in the third propelled FIU to run away with the game. The final score was 68-51 in favor of the Panthers.

Correction: An earlier version of this story misstated the team’s record.
