I had to call a timeout to figure out where I was. I thought maybe I had bought tickets to see a 3-point shooting contest," Stout said.
Lewis' inside game, led by Golden, Miller and Lindsey Bailey scored 33 of the team's 41 points.
"Tonight, we just weren't hitting from the outside. That's when coach gets on us and tells the inside players that we have to step it up," Golden said.
