Bobbi Knudsen hit a free throw with 3.4 seconds left in overtime today, and Montana State Billings hung on to beat the Seattle Pacific University women’s basketball squad, 63-62.
The SPU Falcons were down by 16 points early in the second half in today’s home game, but came back to gain a four-point lead at 57-53 before Billings rallied to tie it at 57-57 and force the extra five minutes.
Senior guard Nyesha Sims (Portland, Ore.) tied her career high with 26 points, and made it a double-double – her seventh of the season – with 14 rebounds. Sophomore forward Katie Benson (Snohomish, Wash./Snohomish HS) added 11 points.
Bobbi Knudsen, the Great Northwest Athletic Conference’s leading scorer, set the pace for Montana State Billings with 18 points, including the first of two free throws at the 3.4-second mark to snap a 62-62 tie.
Seattle Pacific is on the road next week, visiting Saint Martin’s on Thursday night at 7, then going to Western Oregon next Saturday afternoon at 2.
