BUIES CREEK — Taya Bolden paired 10 points with 10 rebounds for her third double-double of the season, but the Campbell women’s basketball team fell to Gardner-Webb, 52-38, on Tuesday night inside Gore Arena.
Bolden’s double-double is the sixth of her career. Kyra Davis pulled down eight boards and Hayley Barber tied a season-high with nine points.
Gardner-Webb (7-6, 1-0) never trailed, pushing its lead to as many as 13 and forced 20 turnovers with 14 steals. Campbell (9-4, 1-1) shot just 27 percent, their lowest shooting effort this season, but did hold the advantage in rebounds (42-33).
Both teams had their best shooting performances in the second quarter as they both shot 50 percent: Gardner-Webb made 7-of-14 while Campbell went 4-of-8 from the floor.
