TALLADEGA, Ala. – The Talladega College women's basketball team wrapped the regular season and the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference slate with a 98-68 loss to Philander Smith College Saturday afternoon at the Hawkins Student Activity Center.

However, the lead did not last long after Dasia Turner tied the game with a layup on the other end, and Miya Yelder posted a layup to move the Panthers ahead 4-2. PSC went on to take a 28-16 lead after the first quarter and later a 55-28 lead to the half.
