Both head coaches agreed that experience was the deciding factor in the initial Army-Navy women's basketball game of this season.
Seniors Sarita Condie, Justice Swett and Ashanti Kennedy all made big plays in the final minute as Navy rallied to beat Army, 63-58, at Christl Arena in West Point. Condie drained a clutch 3-pointer off an assist from Swett, who subsequently came up with a steal. Kennedy calmly made four free throws in the final 17 seconds.
"I think our upper class showed really good leadership out there. They really propelled us to what we needed to do," junior point guard Hannah Fenske said.
