ATHENS, Ga. — Anne Marie Armstrong scored a career-high 23 points and No. 21 Georgia defeated Vanderbilt 76-63 on Sunday.
Jasmine Hassell had 18 points and 11 rebounds, while Jasmine James added 17 points for Georgia (19-6, 8-4 Southeastern Conference).
Christina Foggie had 22 points for Vanderbilt (19-6, 7-5), which had its five-game winning streak come to an end.
Georgia led the whole game, most of the time by a comfortable margin. Every Vanderbilt rally was met by a Georgia response.
When Hassell backed in for a layup with 15:36 to go, it gave Georgia a 51-33 lead. Vanderbilt went on a 14-1 run to cut the deficit to 52-47 with 10:27 to go on a 3-pointer by Foggie.
But the Lady Dogs rediscovered Hassell inside for a turnaround jumper that ignited an 11-3 run that made it 63-50 with 6:18 left.
