MUNCIE, Ind. - The University of Akron women's basketball team twice cut its fourth-quarter deficit to seven points, but the Zips (7-9, 0-5 MAC) were unable to complete the rally and earn its first Mid-American Conference victory of the season as Ball State (11-6, 4-1 MAC) registered an 80-70 decision on Saturday, Jan. 14.

Senior Alex Ricketts (Mercer, Pa.) and redshirt sophomore Megan Sefcik (Austintown, Ohio) paced Akron with a team-high 13 points apiece, while senior Hannah Plybon (Orrville, Ohio) tallied 11 points.
