LADIES COMEBACK FALLS SHORT IN 69-65 LOSS AT HILLSDALE

Wysocky Tallies 20 Points, Seven Rebounds

HILLSDALE, Mich. -- Michigan Tech scored 19 points in the final three minutes to make it a two-point game before Hillsdale finally prevailed, 69-65, in a Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference women's basketball game today.

Sarah Stream capped a Huskies' comeback with 21 seconds left as she stole a backcourt pass and made a layup. Tech was forced to foul just two ticks later and Hillsdale made its free throws. The Chargers cashed in on six-of-six foul shots in the final 19 seconds and 21-of-27 in the game to secure the victory.

Katie Wysocky had another outstanding performance for the Black and Gold. The freshman notched 20 points, seven rebounds and three steals in the loss to cap a two-game streak where she amassed 44 points and 23 boards. Stream finished with 17 points -- 14 in the second half of play.

Hillsdale led by as many as eight points in the first half before Tech rallied to tie the score at 26 on Sarah Stream's three-pointer. HC's Jessie Miller answered with a three-pointer for the 29-26 halftime margin.

The hosts built up a nine-point lead in the first seven minutes of the second half. The gap was its highest at 59-46 with 2:47 to go before the Huskies began their comeback. Jenna Bartels drained back-to-back three-pointers with 1:54 to play to cut the deficit to nine.

Then Stream scored five straight points to cut it to 62-57 at 1:13. Hillsdale split two free throws before Tech scored four points in 14 seconds to make it a 63-61 game. HC then iced it with the six straight foul shots.

Tech shot 45 percent from the field and held the Chargers to 38 percent. The hosts utilized a 41-32 rebounding advantage and 11 more makes at the foul line to get the victory.

Michigan Tech (11-7, 5-5 GLIAC) will return home for a short while before traveling to its next game on Thursday (Jan. 25) at Saginaw Valley State.

Notes: HC turned the ball over the first two possessions of the game before going the rest of the stanza without one ... Wysocky finished a week with 44 points and 23 rebounds.
