[Women's Basketball] TIGERS DEFEATED IN OPENING ROUND OF NAIA NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

Sioux City, Ia. – The Tigers season comes to an end with this loss to Indiana Tech at the NAIA National Championship. With defense taking precedent in this game, neither team was able to score easily to open up the game. A layup by Kennedy Johnson (SO/Romulus, Mich.), coming two minutes after the tip would open up the scoring for the Tigers, and tie the game at two. Later in the quarter, Sammy Stejskal (SR/Arlington Heights, Ill.) would steal possession and make a quick bucket to put the Tigers within one point. Then to end the first quarter, Kennedy Johnson would get a steal of her own and turn it into a basket to go into the second quarter facing an 18-13 deficit.
