AZUSA, Calif. -- The NAIA's No. 22-ranked Azusa Pacific continued to tear through GSAC opponents, thumping Concordia 85-39 Friday night. The win was the seventh in a row for the Cougars and the sixth straight over the Eagles.

Junior guard Jacqueline Godoy led the way for the Cougars with another solid game across the board, tallying 13 points, a team-high 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals.
 
Junior forward Stephanie Patten was the leading scorer for the Cougars, shooting 7-for-9 from the floor for a game-high 15 points. Junior guard Mandy Lindhe dropped in 14 points in 23 minutes of work off the bench. Azusa Pacific shot 60.3% (35-for-58), including a
63.3% (19-for-30) clip in the second half.
 
The Cougars enjoyed a 41-14 halftime advantage, thanks to 11 first-half points from Patten, then continued the onslaught in the second half with a 44-25 scoring advantage in the second half.
 
With the win, Azusa Pacific remains undefeated in GSAC play at 7-0, while improving to 11-5 on the season, while Concordia drops to 4-3 in GSAC, 8-9 overall.
