EVANSVILLE - Powered by the trio of Feit, Griffin, and Newman, the University of Evansville women's basketball team battled back in the fourth quarter to force overtime and eventually capture a 68-65 win over UIC on Friday evening inside Meeks Family Fieldhouse.
The Aces were led by three upperclassmen in senior guard/forward Abby Feit, fifth-year guard A'Niah Griffin, and graduate guard Anna Newman. The trio combined for 62 of Evansville's 68 points on the night with Feit leading the way with 26 points and eight boards, scoring 23 points in the second half and overtime. Griffin also reached the 20-point mark, adding a season-best seven rebounds, while Newman finished just one off tying a career-high with 16 points in her first game back after missing the previous three games due to an injury.
