EMORY, Va. – Freshman forward Tuesdee Woods hit the second of two free throw attempts with 0.5 seconds remaining in overtime to lift Emory & Henry to an 82-81 victory over Washington and Lee in ODAC women's basketball action on Friday evening at the King Center.

W&L (9-15, 8-11) held an 81-79 lead in the final minute of the extra frame, but Woods tied the game on a jumper with 42 seconds left and the Generals were unable to answer on the other end.
