The Lady Mavs were led by Chelsea Rhodes with eight points and Abi Webster with six.

"Cowley played really well," said head coach Greg Krause.  "Our vision on the court has to improve. We have to get more physical defensively and on the boards. It's good to bounce right back into two games this weekend and get back to work."
