A 3-pointer from Louisiana-Monroe (3-13, 1-4 Sun Belt) freshman guard Gara Beth Self was a tough blow for the Bobcats.
Texas State (7-9, 0-5), now trailing the Warhawks 56-55 with 1:05 left in Thursday’s game inside Strahan Arena, missed its next shot. Senior guard Bailey Holle came up with a big stop on the other end, denying ULM senior guard Amber Thompson a clean look at the basket and grabbing the offensive rebound.
The hosts took the ball back to their side of the court and called timeout with 14.6 seconds remaining on the clock. Junior guard Avionne Alexander received the inbounds pass after the break and handed the ball off to sophomore guard Kennedy Taylor on the right wing. Taylor flung the ball to the opposite side of the court to sophomore forward Da’Nasia Hood, who pulled up for the triple.
