Saturday, January 20th, 2018 -- 7:51 PM
Jenny Lindner of Neillsville turned in a dominant second half to finish with 21 points and 14 rebounds to help lead the UW-Milwaukee women's basketball team to a 70-61 win on the road at Calihan Hall Saturday afternoon.Lindner was a monster, especially in the second half when she scored 15 of her 21 points and grabbed half of her 14 rebounds. She also set a new career-high in free throws, going a near-perfect 15-16 from the line, finishing the busy week averaging a double-double in Milwaukee's three wins.
"I'm just really proud of how people stepped up," Milwaukee head coach Kyle Rechlicz said. "Jenny Lindner was tremendous today. Rebounding-wise, getting in double digits is exactly what we needed from her. And then also just getting to the free-throw, especially on the road."
Jamie Reit of Stanley-Boyd had eight points and seven rebounds.
