DeKalb — After a close-knit battle at home, the Huskies suffered their third consecutive loss to the University of Central Michigan Chippewas.

The Chippewas are a conference-leading 6-0 and are 14-3 overall.

“We’re not happy with the outcome,” Head Coach Lisa Carlsen said. “You don’t play the game at this level for moral victories, but that’s a really good [Central Michigan] team that we took to the wire.”

The Huskies started the game with a fast-paced tempo, resulting in a 56 percent shooting effort from the field, while making 50 percent of their shots from behind the 3-point line.
