GREENVILLE, S.C. -- Tate Walters came off the bench to score 17 points and power an impressive second half performance by Furman en route to a 64-51 win over Wofford in Southern Conference women's basketball action Thursday evening at Timmons Arena.

The victory, the second in a row by Furman (14-12, 4-6 SoCon), earned the Paladins the regular season split with Wofford  (15-9, 7-3 SoCon) and halted the Terriers' three-game winning streak.

Walters' 15 points came on 5-of-7 shooting, including 4-for-4 work from 3-point range, and 3-for-4 free throws.  The Buford, Ga., product also contributed three assists in 21 minutes of action.

Niveya Henley followed with 15 points, and Sydney James contributed 10 points.  

Walters, who sat out four games earlier this month due to injury and played only eight minutes in the Paladins' 58-53 win over Western Carolina on Saturday, scored four points in just six first half minutes of play after being whistled for two fouls.  It was a different story, however, in the third quarter as the redshirt junior guard buried the first of four second half treys in a decisive 16-2 Paladin run that also included six points by Henley to put Furman up, 43-24, with 3:24 remaining in the period.

Leading 46-30 after three quarters, the Paladins continued the blitz in fourth, opening the frame with a 13-2 streak that featured a pair of 3-pointers by Walters, who finished off the rally with a basket to stretch Furman's advantage to 59-32 with five minutes to go.

The Paladins' 27-point lead survived to under the four-minute mark before some late scoring by Wofford massaged the final score.

Furman's strong second half was fueled by hot shooting, as the Paladins connected on 15-of-28 offerings (53.6%) over the final 20 minutes, including 7-of-14 treys.

The solid shooting marked a stark contrast from the season's first meeting in Spartanburg in early January when the Paladins suffered through a season worst 2-for-26 effort from beyond the arc in a 69-51 loss.  Furman finished the return engagement by game hitting on 11-of-26 3-point attempts (42.3%).

The Paladins registered 18 assists on 22 made baskets in the contest.

Wofford's Rachael Rose led all scorers with 25 points, but no other Terrier joined her in double figures.  Wofford suffered through a 17-for-54 shooting effort (31.5%).

Jada Session led Furman's 36-32 rebounding edge with 11 caroms and also tallied a team high five assists.
