MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. - With 30 seconds left in overtime, senior Ally Becki knocked down a jumper and then later secured the victory with a defensive rebound to lift the Ball State women's basketball team to a 60-58 overtime victory at Central Michigan Wednesday night at McGuirk Arena.
The extra frame was just as tightly contested as regulation but fortunately the Cardinals (21-7, 13-2 MAC) snapped a two-game losing streak and remained atop of the Mid-American Conference standings with their win over the Chippewas (12-15, 7-8 MAC).
Both teams started the game off slow in the first 10 minutes of action.
