The Oswego State women's basketball team scored a thrilling 73-70 comeback overtime victory over Utica College on Tuesday, Feb. 7, at Max Ziel Gymnasium.

The Lakers trailed throughout the second half but got back into the game with 3-pointers in the final minute by Lacey Kimpland and Kelly Mraz to reduce the deficit to two points. After missing a free throw with seven seconds left, Mraz stole the ball from a Utica player, dribbled to the top of the key, and hit an off-balance leaning jumper as the buzzer sounded. The basket forced overtime with the score tied 67-67.

Oswego State outscored the visiting Pioneers 6-3 in the extra session as Sarah Lombard and Mraz had three points each.

Kimpland paced the Oswego State scorers with 17 points. Mraz scored 12 and Jessica Tremblay had 11.
