CONWAY, Ark. - Looking to avoid a season sweep to Centre, Hendrix hosted the Colonels inside Grove Gymnasium Friday evening in front of over 400 loud fans. The Colonels went on to shoot over 58 percent from three-point land while holding Hendrix to 4-of-21 from deep as Centre carved the 73-59 win over Hendrix. With the loss, Hendrix falls to 2-17 on the season and 0-8 in Southern Athletic Association play while Centre improves to 11-8 on the season with a 5-3 mark in conference games. Kessie Jenkins tied her career-best with 20 points against the Colonels on nine made field goals. The game was played as a "Go 4 The Goal" game; raising awareness and funds for pancreatic cancer.
