In early stages of their season, the Gophers have had trouble getting off to quick starts, forcing them to rely on the second half to catch up.
Sunday night’s 88-86 overtime victory against the Butler Bulldogs was no exception.
“Butler is a very talented team. They gave us all we could handle tonight. I’m very proud of the resiliency of our team,” head coach Marlene Stollings said.
With 4.9 seconds left in the game, senior guard Rachel Banham drained a 3-pointer, which tied the game and sent it to overtime.
