Women's hoops exhibition: a last second thriller

By Mark Sweeney | November 6, 2001

In an exhibition precursor to the 2001-2002 campaign, the Dartmouth women's basketball team dropped a thriller, 63-62, to the Galatasaray SK All-Star team from Turkey at Leede Arena last night. After trailing for nearly all of the second half, the Big Green stormed back behind a three-pointer from Keri Downs '03 and eight consecutive free throws from Downs and Katharine Hanks '03 to take the lead late in the game. While trying to preserve a one-point lead, Dartmouth committed a costly turnover with 25 seconds remaining and Galatasaray SK converted the opportunity and made the winning bucket with five ticks left on the clock.
