The game came down to the wire and was decided by which team would make the plays down the stretch, and the Mountaineers did just that.
Trailing 52-51 with 3:20 left in the game following a Daja Chase layup, the Apps scored six of the next eight points en route to their first road win of the season and the first win on the road to open conference play since the 1996-97 season. The defense clamped down in the final minutes of the contest holding ULM to 2-for-9 over the final 3:59 while forcing the hosts to miss their last five buckets.
