Panthers coach Tanya Warren talks about Sunday's win at Drake.

Amber Sorenson never flinched.

Neither did her Northern Iowa women’s basketball teammates during the closing moments of Sunday’s 79-73 win at Drake.

“We just have confidence in ourselves,” Sorenson said. “Our point guards do a really good job of settling us down and telling us to take a breath.

“We just had to continue to do that.”

The Bulldogs erased a 14-point, second-half deficit and took a 71-70 lead when Sara Rhine hit a jumper from outside the lane with 1:38 left in the fourth quarter.
