LAS VEGAS, Nev. (December 16, 2021) – The College of Southern Nevada Women's Basketball team lost in a Scenic West Athletic Conference home game against a strong opponent Thursday.
 
CSN opened a rare four-game week at home, hosting a Scenic West game with the College of Southern Idaho. The Lady Coyotes lost a 63-49 decision to CSI at Democracy Prep, falling to 6-7 overall and 2-3 in Scenic West contests.
 
Both teams went back-and-forth in momentum and leads throughout the game, with the game featuring three lead changes.
