Women’s basketball loses in overtime at NAIA National Championship to end their season

The Our Lady of the Lake University (OLLU) women’s basketball team got off to a slow start yet kept the game close throughout, but lost in overtime to Loyola University New Orleans (LUNO) 89-86. The Saints end their season with an overall 23-10 record, while the Wolf Pack (26-5) advances to the round of 16 in the 2018 NAIA Division I Women’s Basketball Championships presented by Wells Fargo.

Head Coach Christopher Minner commented, “We had a disappointing start, and that really hurt us. We missed four free throws at the end. We make one, and we win. We got a good stop, and then didn’t block out. It was a good game to watch, but we should have won. When we get out-rebounded by 17 and miss free throws and layups, we don’t win at the national tournament.” Read full story here.
