Box Score By Kevin Farr
Murray State Sports Information
Lady Aggie basketball coach Nate Levine might have been thinking he was having déjà vu Thursday night as his team watched a fourth quarter lead slip away while the visitors forced overtime. Unlike their last home outing that turned into a loss, Murray State found plenty of offense in the extra frame this time around.

Freshman Olivia Quapaw tossed in nine points as Murray State kept the throttle down while pouring in 16 in the five-minute extra period to claim an 88-83 conference win over Seminole State College. The Lady Aggies improve to 13-7 overall and 5-4 in league and will be off until next Thursday when they travel to conference leading Connors State.

Murray State raced to a 24-15 edge after one quarter and was still in front 39-35 at intermission before the visiting Belles posted a 23-17 scoring advantage in the third to take the lead.

Sosefina Langi scored 11 in the fourth frame however and looked like she might have sealed the victory with a steal and then layup with 21 seconds remaining in regulation. Seminole had other ideas, canning a tying trey at the horn.

The Lady Aggies shook it off though as Quapaw started the overtime with a conventional three-point play and then finished things by sinking four straight at the charity stripe after Seminole had closed to within 84-83.

Langi and Quapaw each notched season-high 26-point effort to spur the Murray offensive charge. Ongolea Afu also reached double digits with 18 points while Arissa Garcia tacked on seven, Tierra Williams had six and Khalayah Willis chipped in five.
