Women's Basketball Outlasts Indiana Tech In OT Thriller

FORT WAYNE, Ind. — Siena Heights used a dominant fourth quarter and a poised overtime finish to take down league‑leading Indiana Tech 84–82 on Wednesday night, powered by a strong performance from Ty'Veonna Davis, who poured in 28 points to lead the Saints to their biggest road win of the season.

Davis knocked down 4-of-7 from three, grabbing 10 rebounds. Siena Heights (13–11, 12–9 WHAC) pvercame a 14‑point deficit thanks to a late surge that saw the Saints erupt for 30 points in the fourth quarter.

Jam Thigpen finished with 19 points on 8-of-11 shooting and 10 rebounds, including multiple go‑ahead baskets in the final three minutes. Kanyla Tyler added 14 points, while Lauren DeWolf posted 11 points and 9 rebounds, including a massive overtime three that briefly put SHU back in front.

 

In OT, Thigpen scored three straight times around the rim, DeWolf drilled the go‑ahead triple, and E'Moni Finch calmly sank two free throws with 10 seconds left to make it 76–73 before Tech tied it at the horn. Davis responded again, scoring twice in the final minute of overtime and hitting the go‑ahead basket with 12 seconds left. Tyler sealed it with a transition layup for the final 84–82 margin.
