DAHLONEGA - Julianne Sutton posted her fourth double-double of the season as the No. 22 University of North Georgia women's basketball team rolled past Georgia Southwestern 89-75 Saturday afternoon at the UNG Convocation Center.
Sutton's 25 points and 16 boards helped the Nighthawks get back on the winning track.
It was all North Georgia from the opening tip as Vanessa Agrusa notched an and-one just five seconds into the game to jump-start the high scoring output for the Nighthawks. The UNG lead got to as many as 23 midway through the fourth quarter before the 'Canes clawed back to get the game to 14 by the final horn.
