CLEMSON, SC – The Clemson women’s basketball team defeated Anderson College by a score of 75-60 in an exhibition game on Tuesday night at Littlejohn Coliseum.

Sophomore D’Lesha Lloyd led Clemson with 14 points and eight rebounds, while fellow sophomore Tasha Taylor added 11 points with seven assists. Senior Amanda Frist recorded 10 points for the Lady Tigers as well.

Anderson’s LaShonda Chiles was the story of the first half as she scored 18 of her 24 total points in the period. Chiles hit seven of 12 shots, including three of four from the three-point line, to help the Lady Trojans to a 33-27 lead at the half.

However, Clemson came out of the break tough, opening the half with seven straight points to take a 34-33 advantage.
