Enis Scores 27 As Reign Roll

Shalonda Enis scored 27 points and pulled down 15 rebounds as the Seattle Reign snapped a 10-game losing streak Friday night with an 80-69 victory over the Atlanta Glory.

It was the first victory in seven tries for new Reign coach Tammy Holder.

Quest 103, Blizzard 85

At Columbus, Ohio

Tonya Edwards and Valerie Still had 21 points each and four other Columbus players scored in double figures as the Quest beat New England.

It was the 11th straight home victory for Columbus.

The Blizzard jumped out to an early lead, due in part to Carolyn Jones’ 10-for-11 effort from the foul line in the first half. Jannon Roland’s 3-pointer with 8:13 remaining in the second quarter gave New England its biggest lead of the night to that point, 28-19.
