It was another overtime thriller for the women’s basketball team in the Great Alaskan Shootout.

This time it found itself on the winning end, beating Alaska Anchorage 90-84.

Junior guard Brandie Baker tied the game with 15 seconds left on a 3-point shot. The Chippewas never trailed in overtime, scoring the first four points and eventually outscoring the Bulls 17-11 in the period.

“Our bench was really big in this game,” Guevara said.

The Chippewas had a lead evaporate to one at the half, leading 38-37.

“We had a couple lapses in our defense, especially in our perimeter play,” Guevara said.

Freshman guard Kerby Tamm knocked down four 3-pointers coming off the bench.
