Cardinal Women Edged in OT by Maryville University

Box Score Jewell women's basketball came close to ending their losing streak Saturday at Maryville University, but fell short in overtime 90-88.

Chelsea Meek's three-pointer with under two seconds left sent the game to overtime, but Maryville built a pair of six point leads in the extra period to overcome a good effort by Jewell, who fall to 8-11 overall, 3-7 in the Great Lakes Valley Conference.  The Cardinals have lost six in a row.

Maryville (11-8, 4-5) shot 48% from the floor, and Jewell shot 41%.  Jewell was 26-29 from the free throw line, and Maryville was 25-30.

Meeks had 25 points and six assists, playing 30 minutes in the game after missing most of the first half with foul trouble.  Cassy Nicolay hit for 17 points and had nine rebounds, while Hayli Jo Smith socred 16 points and Maddie Nelson had a dozen.

Each team had 17 turnovers in the game.

The Cardinals are on the road again next week with stops at Wisconsin-Parkside on Thursday, and Lewis University on Saturday.
