QUOTING BAYLEE BARKER
HOW IT HAPPENED
- Barker was urged to gain her confidence back by head coach Stacey Brunner-Jones after a 1-for-9 performance in the Falcons last game at Marian. The senior guard from Oconomowoc, Wisconsin did just that, by going 8-of-14 from the field (two 3-pointers) and making 9-of-10 free throws to tie her career high of 27 points from earlier this season.
- As unit, Concordia Wisconsin did what they need in certain situations to stay ahead just enough through the game. There were 13 lead changes and 12 scoring ties in the heated matchup.
- The Falcons trailed 67-66 with two minutes and 39 seconds to play and junior guard Clara Chambers (Mineral Point, Wis.) drained a 3-pointer on the ensuing possession to put the hosts in front for good. Barker made a layup on the next offensive possession to put the Falcons in front four and made four free throws down the stretch.
- Chambers ended with 10 points, while freshman Camryn Szolyga (Waukesha, Wis.) had 15 points off the bench in 23 minutes.
- Diamond Pikulyk led the Eagles with 18 points in 18 minutes, while Lexi Walter and Alyssa Lemirande each had 12 points. Abby Shane added eight points and six assists.
GAME NOTES
- The Falcons have locked up the third seed for the NACC Tournament and will host a game next Tuesday at 7 pm inside the R. John Buuck Field House.
