The Missouri State Lady Bears will play three of their last four games at home to wrap up the regular season.
That started Friday night against Creighton, the Lady Bears trying to snap an eight-game losing streak.
Jim Flannery's creighton Bluejays took a double-digit lead on this play. The turnover, Chevelle Herring to Megan Neyvirth for the hoop and the harm. Creighton up 13-3.
But the Lady Bears would go on a run, Taylor Silas get the rebound, takes it beyond the arc and nails the three, it's a five-point deficit.
More offensive glass-work.. Tiff Terwelp the rebound and finish. It's 21-14 creighton. Then Tahnee Balerio the nice feed to Breton Wyett for two. It's a six-point Bluejays lead.
Seconds left in the half. Sam Shoeitt pulls up from three. And nails it. The Lady Bears went into the lockeroom down ten, 35-25.
But the Lady Bears would rally in the second half, Tahnee Balerio's shot here puts Missouri State up 43-42. And the Lady Bears snap their eight-game losing streak, 70-60.
