AUGUSTA, Ga. – The Limestone Saints ran away from GRU Augusta in the second half to take an 83-66 non-conference win in the Timken Center Saturday night.

The lead only changed twice as Limestone (2-0) controlled the game the majority of the night and shot 82.1 percent from the floor to GRU's 58.6. The Jaguars started the game on a 4-0 run off a Becky Newhouse layup and a free throw from Kelsey Fynaardt. They stayed ahead behind Brooke McCant's seven points and Whitney Rohrbach's five in the first half.

GRU (0-1) maintained the lead until just under nine minutes when Limestone tied it at 17-all and never looked back. Celestra Warren had a game-high 25 points for the Saints and Ayshia McNeil had 20 points - shooting 3-for-9 from the three-point line.

The Saints outscored GRU 53-to-43 in the second half and only had five turnovers to the Jags' eight.
