UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Only 3.8 seconds remained on the clock and the Lady Lions trailed No. 25 Rutgers, 67-66, with the ball in their possession and an inbounds play coming up. For head coach Coquese Washington, there was only one person who she wanted to have the ball and make a play in the final moments: junior point guard Teniya Page.

"She'd been having a great game, so we wanted to put the ball in her hands and let her make a play," Washington said.

That's exactly what Page did, as she came off a screen and stepped into a three to give Penn State the lead.
