Excerpt from the Dayton Daily News
When Wright State trailed by one with 23 seconds left in overtime, coach Kari Hoffman had some options to choose from while setting up a potential game-winning basket.
It’s nice to have options.
“We kind of had a two-fer,” she said, meaning she told her team in the timeout to get the ball to either Layne Ferrell or Alexis Hutchison and let them do their thing.
“Luckily, we have two players you can go to at any moment and feel like they can make the plays — even when you don’t draw up something specific for them.”
Hutchison scored on a layup for a one-point lead with 17 seconds left, and the Raiders scored the last eight points in OT for an 80-77 win at Robert Morris on Sunday.
They improved to 9-6 overall and 3-1 in the Horizon League with a pair of road wins over the weekend.
