After Ball State made a layup to bring the Cardinals within one point, the Chippewas turned the ball over with four seconds to play. The Cardinals would miss the potential game-winning 3-pointer, handing CMU another one-point victory.

After a back-and-forth 40 minutes, the Central Michigan women's basketball team (18-8, 12-3 Mid-American Conference) defeated the Ball State Cardinals (18-8, 10-5 MAC) 67-66.

“I think we’re tired,” said Head Coach Sue Guevara.
