Hudson's 30-Foot Heave Wins Triple-Overtime Thriller for @FIUWBB

Sophomore point guard Kristian Hudson (Birmingham, Alabama) hit a three-point basket just inside the midcourt stripe to end an epic triple-overtime game and give FIU its first home-winning streak in four years in an 88-87 victory Thursday night over visiting UTEP in Conference USA women's basketball action. The triple was Hudson's only made three of the game and gave her a career-high 35 points in the win. The FIU record is now 4-11 overall, 2-2 in league play. UTEP falls to 4-12 on the season, 1-3 in C-USA games. It was FIU's first win over UTEP in four previous tries as conference opponents.
