After being down 20 points in the middle of the 3rd quarter, the Golden Grizzlies win 79-76 against the Chippewas!
The first three quarters of the game were not ideal for Oakland. In those quarters, Central Michigan shot 55.6% FG while Oakland shot 25.81% FG and were heavily outrebounded.
Oakland entered the 4th quarter down by 12 with no momentum on either side of the ball. However, they quickly stole the fire from the fired up Chips.
They open up the final quarter on a 17-2 run to quickly close the gap. Leading the charge was Maddy Skorupski, who had 2 threes, 2 steals, 2 rebounds, and an assist in the 4th.
