PORTALES, N.M. - The Eastern New Mexico Zias arrived at a place it rarely experiences in Saturday night's Lone Star Conference South Division contest - the win column.

ENMU hit five 3-pointers in the second half to pull away from Midwestern State 70-56 at Greyhound Arena.

Junior forward Cat Clay connected on five of the Zias' eight treys to finish with a game-high 17 points as ENMU claimed its first divisional win since beating MSU in the final contest of the 2007-08 season.

Midwestern State claimed its last lead of the game when Cierra Thompson hit a turnaround jumper in the lane to give the Mustangs a 12-11 lead with 10:02 left in the opening half.

But the Zias outscored MSU 14-5 over the next five minutes to build a 25-17 advantage when Til-Lois Fifer hit one of two free throws with 5:18 to go in the opening half.

ENMU maintained the same lead into the half, then led by as many as 16 points in the second half.

Fifer finished with 16 points and nine rebounds, while junior center Kara Bible dropped in a season-high 14 points and pulled in six rebounds. Junior guard Tori Northcutt completed a double-double with 10 points and 10 assists.

The Mustangs placed two players in double figures led by junior forward Aqueelah Watkins who had 12 points and eight rebounds, while Thompson finished with 10 points of her own.

Savannah Carver (five rebounds), Nolisha Markham (nine rebounds) and Jazman Patterson (five rebounds) finished with nine points eash.

Midwestern State (6-10, 0-3) plays host to Texas A&M-Kingsville Wednesday night at D.L. Ligon Coliseum. Tipoff is set for 6 p.m.
