DAYTON, Ohio - The Purdue Fort Wayne women's basketball team dropped a Horizon League game at Wright State 70-67 on Thursday night (Feb. 5).
Wright State led by as many as 13 in the third quarter before Purdue Fort Wayne mounted a comeback that fell just short. The 'Dons had a 9-0 run spurted by Jordan Reid, who scored four of her team-high 19 in the 2:37 stretch. After the quarter break, Reid scored and then Lili Krasovec made a layup to cut the lead down to two.
Like what felt like all game, Wright State answered the Mastodon run with a 3-pointer. Breezie Williams from Wright State, who finished with 28, hit two 3-pointers to push it back out to eight with 30 seconds left. Alana Nelson hit a triple, then Reid stole the ensuing inbound pass to bring it back to a one-possession game. Free throws kept the Mastodons at bay, though, as Wright State's Olivia Brown made four down the stretch. Lauren Lee hit a layup with five to go, but Brown missed two freebies to give the 'Dons a chance. The Mastodons could not convert on the final possession.
Reid finished with 19 points, her second such game in her last four. She added four steals, three rebounds and an assist in her 32 minutes. Nelson had 18 points with five 3-pointers and eight rebounds. Krasovec scored 14 points, eight of which came in the last 10 minutes of the game. Lee dished out six assists.
Wright State shot 53.2 percent from the floor (25-of-47), 50 percent from 3-point range (10-of-20) and 76.9 percent from the charity stripe (10-of-13). Purdue Fort Wayne finished at 46 percent (29-of-63), 22.7 percent from deep (5-of-22) and 30.8 percent from the line (4-of-13).
With the win, Wright State improved to 7-17, 3-10 in the Horizon League. Purdue Fort Wayne fell to 15-9, 9-5.
The Mastodons will visit Cleveland State on Saturday (Feb. 7) for a 2 p.m. tip.
