45%, lose by 3.

[i77cat]

Good start to the opening quarter, awful finish. Duquesne hits 3 triples in the last 78 seconds. 15-11 turns into 15-20.

[i77cat]

Nice. 23-22, 7 minutes.

[i77cat]

Career half from Issy Morgan. 5-7 overall, 4-6 from deep, 2-2 at the line, 3 rebounds, 3 assists.

Cats up 41-31. That's a 26-11 quarter. Great job.

Duquesne has a played named Megan McConnell. She comes from a basketball family. Her aunt Suzie was a college star and one of the WNBA's first players. Her uncle or cousin TJ McConnell plays in the NBA.

Her uncle Tommy played for Davidson in '81 and '82. He's coached at several schools.

A very good first half for the Wildcats. We need to stop fouling them and make them hit shots.

41-31 Davidson.

[i77cat]

Adenupe has her knee iced. Gonna need a big half from Sallie, Rosie, and Maddie.

[i77cat]

We were up 46-34. We limp to the 4th quarter at 51-47. Adelaide has 4 fouls. Tomisin didn't play that quarter. If she can't go and Adelaide gets another foul, we're down to 6 players. Unless Doctor gives us a few minutes, that is.

[i77cat]

Good start to the 4th. Refs finally calling some of Duquesne's fouls. 54-47 at 8 minutes. We're shooting FT the rest of the way. 56-47 at 7:26.

[i77cat]

We look tired. Sloppy, shooting touch is absent. 56-55 at 5 minute mark.

[i77cat]

We went from 9:23 to about 2:30 between baskets. 59-59 under 2 minutes. 59-62. Now 61-62, our ball, 42 seconds. Maddie Plank! 64-62 with 16 seconds left.

[i77cat]

Maddie has scored our last 8 points.

[i77cat]

3 team fouls

[i77cat]

Terrible. Our slowest player chases a player on the perimeter and is called for a foul on a made 3. 8 seconds left. They miss the FT. Timeout. 64-65. Got a chance.

[i77cat]

They foul Sutphin at 2.3 seconds. She makes both. 66-65. Duquesne timeout...
