Seufer, who scored 10 points in the contest, also hit a pair of free throws with 57 seconds left in regulation to knot the game at 57-57. Washington and Lee had the ball and chances to win the game in the final seconds of regulation, but could not convert. W&L had one last opportunity with 0.3 seconds remaining as first-year guard Meghan Ingram (Greensboro, N.C./Ragsdale) nailed a three-pointer off an in-bounds play, but the shot was ruled to have been after the buzzer, sending the teams into the overtime session.
