UCC Riverhawks Womens Basketball 65-60 Clark

With just under three minutes remaining and trailing by two points, the UCC Riverhawks women's basketball team found the clutch shooting they needed to turn a nail-biter into a 65-60 victory over Clark at home Tuesday night.

The non-conference matchup lived up to its billing as both teams traded baskets throughout the evening, but the Riverhawks' late-game composure proved to be the difference in front of their home crowd.

UCC improved to 23-10 overall with the hard-fought win, showing the kind of resilience that has defined their season. The five-point margin doesn't tell the full story of a game that saw multiple lead changes and neither team able to build more than a single-digit advantage for most of the contest.

Clark refused to go quietly, keeping pace with the Riverhawks' offensive attack and creating several anxious moments for the Douglas County faithful in attendance. The visitors' ability to answer UCC's scoring runs made every possession crucial down the stretch.

The victory caps off another solid performance for a Riverhawks squad that continues to build momentum as they navigate through their schedule. With their record now standing at 23-10, UCC has shown they can win the close games that often define successful seasons.

The Riverhawks will look to carry this clutch-time confidence into their upcoming games as they continue their pursuit of postseason positioning.
