DEKALB, Ill. – Thelma Dis Agustsdottir nailed a 3-pointer with 1.6 seconds left to give Ball State(8-21, 3-13 MAC) a 67-64 victory at Northern Illinois (17-12, 9-8 MAC) Wednesday night at the Convocation Center.
With only two games remaining for both teams in the MAC regular season, you would expect nothing less than NIU's senior day to make it a last minute ball game. The Huskies made a strong comeback in the final stanza and would take a 64-62 lead with 54 seconds left in the contest. But Ball State wasn't going to let this contest go, they could smell blood, and they got it.
