Tuesday night’s games saw the following results:

  • Northern Illinois downed Bowling Green by a score of 79-78 in a close battle. The Falcons were led by Lexi Fleming with 22 points. The Huskies were led by Chelby Koker with 15 points.
  • Ball State beat Central Michigan by a final score of 69 to 66. The Cardinals leading scorer was Oshlynn Brown with 25 points. The Chippewas were led by Molly Davis with 24 points.
  • Ohio defeated Kent State by a final score of 85 to 70. The Bobcats were led by Cierra Hooks with 29 points and the Golden Flashes were led by Katie Shumate with 22 points.
  • Miami tamed Western Michigan by a final score of 73 to 65. The RedHawks were led by Peyton Scott with 37 points. The Broncos leading scorer was Sydney Shafer with 23 points.
