The Frank Phillips Lady Plainsmen traveled to Big Spring, TX over the weekend to compete the Howard College Classic picking up two wins against Coastal Bend Community College and Lamar Community College and improving to 5-5 on the season.

Freshman Canton Moreno chipped in 22 points in 17 minutes of play to help put the Plainsmen over the top.
