Wofford's Paulk has triple-double in loss
SPARTANBURG, S.C. – Evangelia Paulk etched her name in history Thursday night inside the Jerry Richardson Indoor Stadium as with her 17 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 steals, she recorded the second triple-double in program history. However, the Wofford women's basketball team fell 62-54 to Samford despite the Terriers' late comeback efforts. Wofford drops to 15-9 (7-4 SoCon) as Samford improves to 11-16 (6-5 SoCon). The Bulldogs outshot the Terriers 36.4 percent (20-of-55) to 29.5 percent (18-of-61). Samford hit five threes to just the one of Wofford, but the Terriers were stout at the charity stripe, going 17-of-21 at an 81.0 percent clip. Both teams committed over 20 turnovers, and Wofford recorded a 28-19 points off turnovers advantage. The Terriers won the glass 45-34 with 15 offensive boards to Samford's six. Evangelia Paulk led the way for the Terriers with her 17 points, 10 boards, and 10 steals. This marks the second triple-double in program history and first since Rachael Rose tallied the first last season against Furman on January 20, 2024. This is Paulk's seventh double-double of the season and 12th of her career, moving her into a tie with Ashton Fleming for fourth most in program history. Toni Warren joined her in double-digits with 12 points, adding in three boards. Molly Masingale was just shy with nine points, and she added eight rebounds to fall just short of a double-double. Masingale also dished a team-high three assists. Mia Flor netted eight points with five rebounds and a block. Maddie Heiss contributed four points, three boards, and two assists. The Terriers put home their first eight points of the contest at the charity stripe, and Toni Warren netted the first field goal with 2:19 on the clock. Samford led 15-10, but Warren's make sparked a six-point run by the freshman alone to bring the Terriers within a point. The Bulldogs would notch the final four points of the frame, however, to lead 19-14. After Warren opened the second with a mid-range jumper, Samford went on a 13-point run to pull ahead 32-16. Molly Masingale's free throw broke the spell, and Mia Flor added a layup. Libby Privett put home a pair at the stripe to close the half, but Wofford trailed 34-21. Needing to push back, Wofford opened the second half with a steal by Evangelia Paulk that quickly turned into another bucket for Warren. A Samford three was immediately followed by another Paulk swipe and score. Bulldog free throws at the 7:24 mark put Samford in front 42-27, but Flor converted to kick off a six-point run that featured a make from Maddie Heiss and another Paulk steal and score. The teams traded some blows, and Queen Ikhiuwu put home a layup in the final minute-and-a-half to close the quarter with Wofford trimming the margin to 11, 48-37. After Samford opened the fourth with a jumper, Paulk converted a pair at the stripe. A Samford layup was nixed by a Paulk trey, and Masingale converted two at the line to bring Wofford within eight points (52-44) at the 6:47 mark. But the defenses for both teams clamped up over the next two minutes, and Samford broke the scoring drought at the 3:59 mark. Paulk then took charge, recording two steals that led to buckets in the span of 24 seconds. Despite a Bulldog make, Paulk put home a layup to keep the margin at six (56-50) with 1:21 to go. Samford hit a three, but Warren put in a two in response. However, time had begun to dwindle, and the Terriers were forced to foul. Samford converted just enough at the line to keep Wofford at bay. Paulk did secure her 10th rebound in the closing seconds off a missed Bulldog free throw to notch her triple-double, but the Terriers ultimately fell 62-54 to Samford. Wofford will look to close its home slate strong on Saturday with its final contest of the season inside Jerry Richardson Indoor Stadium. The home finale is against Mercer and begins at 6:00 p.m. The contest is senior night for the program, and it serves as the second leg of a doubleheader with the men's basketball team, who plays ETSU at 2:00 p.m. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
