North Park Falls to #18 Millikin, 100-62

Perry's goes 12-for-12 from free-throw line

DECATUR, Ill. -- The North Park women's basketball team had the tall task of back-to-back nationally-ranked opponents, following up No. 10 Illinois Wesleyan on Wednesday with No. 18 Millikin on Saturday afternoon. The Big Blue pulled away big early, winning this one 100-62.

From the opening tip, Millikin seemed to have the edge over the Vikings. Senior guard Victoria Perry led the way for the Vikings with 28 points but it wasn't enough to keep up with the high-powered offense of the now 13-3 Millikin team that shot nearly 60% from the field.  Millikin caused North Park to turn the ball over 24 times and totaled 19 assists to the Vikings' 3.  Senior guard Elisha Dunlap added 12 points and 7 rebounds for the Vikings.   


Top Performers: 

  • Victoria Perry – 29 PTS, 3 STL
    • Perry's 12-for-12 performance from the FT line is the most a Viking has made without a miss since Laura Mount was 14-for-14 against Elmhurst on Feb. 10, 2007
    • 12 free throws in a game is the third-most in NPU WBB history 
  • Elisha Dunlap – 12 PTS, 7 REB 


What's Next? 

The Vikings (3-13, 0-7 CCIW) remain on the road for their next game, going against the Cardinals from North Central College in Naperville on Wednesday, January 17, followed by a home game against Augustana College on Saturday, January 20.
