Cold Fourth Quarter Dooms 'Roos

IRVING, Texas - The Austin College women's basketball team went into the fourth quarter trailing the University of Dallas just 46-45, but the 'Roos went cold in the fourth quarter, scoring only four points in a 60-49 road loss to their Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference rivals on Saturday afternoon.
