On December 21st, in the last non-conference game of the season, Oakland fell to the visiting Miami Ohio RedHawks in overtime, 66-68.

Miami’s freshman forward, Amber Tretter, had 12 points and 10 rebounds just in the first half. All other RedHawks only scored 2 or 3 points. Tretter finished with 19 points, 13 rebounds, and 6 assists, all of which are career highs.

Miami’s Maddy Huhn was able to score a three-pointer to make it a one possession game, 58-55 Oakland with 19 seconds left. Then a Miami steal would lead to a three pointer by Cori Lard, her only FG of the game at the time, to tie the game with 12 seconds left.


Oakland failed to make the winning shot in the last possession, sending the game into overtime.


The Golden Grizzlies would lead in OT by 4 with a midrange jumper by Brooke Quarles-Daniels, with 1:37 in OT.


The lead would swing both ways until it’s tied at 66 with 14 seconds left. Miami had the final shot of the game, a jumper by Jada Scott to win it for the RedHawks, 68-66.


The Golden Grizzlies were led in scoring by Brooke Quarles-Daniels with a career-high 22 points, Maddy Skorupski with 15, and Kianni Westbrook with 10.
