Milwaukee - The UW-Milwaukee Panthers took down the MCC co-leading Detroit Titans at the Klotsche Center, 75-68, Thursday night.

UWM (12-9) led by as many as 15 in the first half, when the score was 29-14 with eight minutes remaining in the first half. But Detroit charged back to cut the lead to eight, 43-35, at the half.

In the second half, the Titans were able to storm back, trailing only 67-66 with 2:36 remaining. Corrin Von Wald was able to help the Panthers close the door on the Titans by scoring UWM's last six points from the charity stripe. Von Wald led all scorers with her 23 points, which ties her career high and led the Panthers with eight rebounds.

"This was a big weekend for us and Green Bay to set ourselves apart from the rest of the conference," said head coach Sandy Botham.

The backcourt of Daryl Schaffeld and Teri Stoltenberg chipped in with 10 points each on the night and Stoltenberg led the Panthers with her five assists.
