L Additionally, King named an honorable mention All-American by the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) marking the second-straight year that Akron has had a player earn honorable mention All-America accolades by the WBCA. She joined Tecca (2013-14), Cheryl Bowles (1999-2000) and Pam Arnold (1986-87) as Zips who have been honored as earned honorable mention All-America recipients during their distinguished Akron careers.

Four players received all-conference accolades during the 2014-15 campaign as King was tabbed as first-team selection, junior Anita Brown and sophomore Hannah Plybon were tabbed second- and third-team selections, respectively. Freshman Kerri McMahan was recognized as an all-freshman team recipient.

Brown turned in the sixth-best single-season scoring average in program history a year ago scoring 18.8 points per contest, while Plybon connected on a school-record 97 three pointers.

The Zips turned in arguably the best season in program history during the 2013-14 campaign, earning Akron’s first-ever MAC championship and NCAA Tournament appearance. Kest was named as the Ohio Coach of the Year in 2014 for her team’s efforts. The Zips ranked 11th in the nation in scoring offense after averaging 82.0 points per game.

The third-seeded Zips won their first MAC Tournament title in 2014 defeating fifth-seeded Ball State, 79-68, at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland. The victory gave Akron the league’s automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament, which was Kest’s first appearance on the national stage as a Division I head coach. The Zips would eventually fall on the road at Purdue in their first round game, closing out a historic season for the Blue and Gold.

The season also featured a school-record 13-game winning streak from Jan. 18 to March 5, 2014. During the last week of the regular season, it was one of 10 active double-digit winning streaks in Division I. UA shot 45.8 percent from the field and outscored its opponents by an average of 16.5 points per game during that span.

Kest has produced four of the most decorated players in Akron women’s basketball history in Hanna Luburgh (2010-14), Kara Murphy (2008-11), Rachel Tecca (2009-14) and King (2010-15).

» 2010 MAC Coach of the Year» 142-139 at Akron (.504)» 368-292 Overall (.557, 23 Seasons)

The longest tenured women’s basketball head coach in the Mid-American Conference, Jodi Kest returns for her 10th year leading The University of Akron women’s basketball program. The all-time winningest coach in program history, she is back on the sidelines after guiding the Zips to their third-consecutive 20-win season during the 2014-15 campaign, a feat never before accomplished in the 41-year history of the program.

Kest has amassed nearly 370 victories in her coaching career, highlighted by registering at least 22 wins in back-to-back-to-back campaigns. She has guided Akron to three consecutive postseason berths (NCAA 2014, WNIT 2013 and 2015) and four overall postseason appearances in the last six years.

Under Kest’s tutelage, Akron has become well-known for its uptempo style of play and has established itself as one of the top-scoring teams in the country. Kest’s squad was ranked 27th nationally in scoring offense averaging 74.4 points per game. Her 2014-15 team also rated in the top 50 nationally in assists per game (19th - 16.4), assist/turnover ratio (31st - 1.10), field goal percentage (40th - .435), rebounding margin (41st - +5.5) and winning percentage (48th - .710).

Led by Mid-American Conference Player of the Year Sina King, Akron finished the 2014-15 campaign with a 22-9 ledger en route to a second-place finish in the MAC Eastern Division at 12-6. The Zips garnered their third-consecutive postseason berth being selected to participate in the Women’s National Invitation Tournament (WNIT), where Akron traveled to Manhattan, Kan., to square off against Kansas State.

The Zips got off to the best start in program history at 10-0 en route to establishing school records for most regular season victories (22), home wins (13), best winning percentage (.710) as well as individual-game marks for most triples in a game with 13 at Central Michigan, and most combined points with 203 in a 102-101 victory at Toledo.

King became only the second Zips’ player to be named the Mid-American Conference Women’s Basketball Player of the Year, joining Rachel Tecca, who won the honor in 2013, with her selection as the league’s top player in 2015. She led the conference in scoring (20.3) and rebounding (9.3) and scored in double figures all 31 games last season en route to posting a league-best 16 double-doubles.

Three of Kest’s starting five were all-conference performers, including Tecca (first team), Sina King (third team) and Luburgh (third team). Kest also mentored junior point guard Kacie Cassell, the 2013 national leader in assists per game.

Following the milestone season, Kest was rewarded with a five-year contract extension that will keep her at Akron through the 2017-18 season.

During her nine seasons, Kest has seen 18 of her student-athletes earn All-MAC recognition, eight make the All-Freshman Team, two earn Sixth Player of the Year honors, and two named Player of the Year and WBCA All-Region. Additionally, she has coached 17 Academic All-MAC selections, including a record three in 2012-13 as Tecca, King and Luburgh all earned the distinction.

In 2011, she coached two All-MAC selections in King and Taylor Ruper. Ruper enjoyed a lights-out year from behind the arc, becoming Akron’s all-time leader in 3-pointers made. Ruper would finish her career in 2013 with a school record 269 3-pointers.

Four Zips received conference honors for their play during the 2010-11 campaign. Tecca highlighted the group, as she became just the third player in program history at the time to make the All-MAC First Team. Murphy, Akron’s lone senior that year, earned Honorable Mention honors to join Cheryl Bowles (1998-01) as the only two Zips to garner all-conference recognition all four years of their career.

Akron placed a representative on the All-Freshman Team for the sixth-straight season in Carly Young in 2011. Also, junior Jasmine Mushington was named Co-Sixth Player of the Year. Keeping it in the Zips family, Tecca was the recipient of the award in 2009-10.

Kest, who arrived on the campus of UA in 2006, has successfully turned the women’s basketball program around and continues to lead her team to unprecedented heights. She has guided the Zips to 46 victories over the last two seasons after the team won just 24 games in the six years combined prior to her arrival in Akron.

In 2010, Kest became the first UA women’s coach to receive Coach of the Year accolades from the MAC and just the second Akron basketball coach (men’s or women’s) at the time to do

Murphy, Kest’s first ever recruit at Akron, was the program’s all-time leading scorer until Tecca broke her former teammate’s record in 2013. Tecca was Akron’s first ever MAC Player of the Year as a redshirt junior, was also a two-time Academic All-American, and the 2014 MAC Tournament Most Valuable Player. She became just the second player in MAC history to surpass 2,000 points and 1,000 rebounds in a career. Luburgh set Akron’s single-season scoring record during her senior season with 734 points. Together, Tecca and Luburgh were the highest scoring duo in the nation as seniors, and the pair went on to play professionally overseas in Iceland and Poland, respectively. King capped her career with 888 rebounds and 1,634 points, the third- and fourth-highest totals in program history, while playing in 124 career games.

Akron captured its first MAC East Division crown and made its first appearance in the conference championship game in 2013, after Kest led the team to win nine out of its last 10 regular season games. UA went on to earn an invitation to the WNIT for the first time since 1999. Akron finished the season as the seventh-highest scoring team in the nation (75.4 ppg) en route to breaking more than 10 school records as a team.

so, following Dan Hipsher, who was presented the award for the men’s team in 1997-98.

Kest enjoyed an impressive inaugural campaign in 2006-07 that saw the Zips double their win total from the previous year, experience their longest winning streak since 1996 and place two players on All Mid-American Conference postseason teams. A one-point victory over Lehigh in December of ‘06 jump started a six-game win streak for the Zips en route to their first double-digit win season since 1999-2000.

Prior to coming to Akron, Kest guided the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi program to a 73-40 (.646) record (16-12 in 2005-06) in four years, tallying a winning mark in each season and being named Independent Coach of the Year three times (2003, ‘04 and ‘05). Also, under Kest’s tutelage, guard Terra Andrews was named Division I Independent Player of the year in three consecutive seasons from 2003-06. With the Islanders, Kest posted the 200th win of her career and left the school with the most wins in program history.

The highlight of her tenure came during the 2004-05 campaign when the Islanders won a school-record 23 games (23-7), and advanced to the second round of the National Invitation Tournament. The team received votes in the top 25 poll that season as well. From 2004-2006, TAMU-CC defeated such teams as Indiana, West Virginia, Nevada, Fresno State and Kent State.

Kest served as head coach at Gannon University in Erie, Pa., for six seasons (1996-97 through 2001-02) prior to her stop in Corpus Christi. During that time, she developed a two-time Division II All-American, 10 all-conference players, a pair of freshmen of the year and five all-defensive first team honorees.

In 2001-02, the Golden Knights won the GLIAC South championship, advanced to the Division II national tournament and were ranked as high as sixth in the nation. Overall, Kest built a 105-64 (.621) mark with the Golden Knights, and guided the program to three-consecutive NCAA Division II tournament appearances and three-straight 20-win seasons.

Under Kest’s leadership, Gannon center Kristin Roseberry developed into one of the best players in the nation, earning All-American honors in 2000 and 2001. Roseberry was named GLIAC Freshman of the Year in 1999 before guard Jen Gwin earned that distinction in 2002. Kest left the school with the most victories in program history.

Kest cut her teeth as a head coach at Wilkes University in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., from 1986-1990 (48-49/.494), rebuilding the struggling Division III program. After posting a 17-29 combined mark in her first two years at the helm, the 1988-89 campaign brought major improvements as the team qualified for the Middle Atlantic Conference playoffs for the first time in program history with a 16-10 record. She was tabbed as the league’s coach of the year that season.

The ninth head coach in Akron program history, Kest served as an assistant coach at a number of Division I schools, logging time at Maine (1990-92), Cleveland State (1992-93), Nevada (1993-95) and Cal Poly (1995-96).

A 1984 graduate of Slippery Rock, with a Bachelor of Science degree in physical education, Kest was a two-sport standout in basketball and tennis. The three-time basketball team captain garnered All-American honors on the hardwood her final two seasons.

She led the “Rock” in scoring in three successive seasons, averaging 13.6 points in 1981-82; 17.8 points in 1982-83, and 19.8 points in 1983-84. She finished her collegiate career with 1,289 points and 540 rebounds, and was inducted into the school’s Athletic Hall of Fame in 1994.

In 1986, she received a master of science in education from Northwest Missouri State, where she served as graduate assistant coach from 1984-86.

Jackson’s recruiting efforts have been instrumental in bringing the Akron women’s basketball program to the forefront of the Mid-American Conference over the past several seasons. Akron’s 2013-14 senior class marked Jackson’s first full recruiting class at Akron, and left as the all-time winningest class in school history with 74 victories over four years.

A year ago, two of her pupils garnered All-MAC honors led by Anita Brown, who averaged 18.8 points, 6.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.3 steals per contest, while connecting at a 47.3 percent clip from the field en route to earning second-team all-conference accolades.

Hannah Plybon turned in a breakout campaign in 2014-15 registering 13.2 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game en route to earning third-team All-MAC honors. She set a single-season school record for three pointers made with 97 and attempted the second-highest single-season total (260) in program history.

From 2012-14, Jackson transformed Hanna Luburgh into one of the most feared shooting guards in the conference. Luburgh left the program as the fourth all-time leading scorer in school history with 1,634 points. She also set the single-season scoring record as a senior, posting a league-leading 734 points. The two-time all-conference and all-MAC Tournament selection ranked

13th in the country in points per game, and is now playing professionally overseas in Lublin, Poland.

Also under Jackson’s watch, Taylor Ruper earned All-MAC honors in 2012. During Ruper’s career at Akron, Jackson helped to develop her into Akron’s all-time leading three-point shooter, and one of the best long-range shooters in the league as well.

Jackson joined the UA staff after helping to guide the University of Delaware program to three postseason berths – including a trip to the NCAA Tournament in 2007 – in four seasons while in the same role from 2004-05 to 2007-08.

During Jackson’s time at Delaware, the Blue Hens captured a Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) regular season championship in 2004-05, a pair of WNIT berths in 2005 and 2006, and earned an at-large bid to the Big Dance with a 26-6 record in 2007. Overall, UD posted a four year record of 80-44 (.645) and won 71 percent of its conference games (51-21) during that stretch.

Jackson, who worked primarily with the guards at Delaware, helped mentor 2007 WNBA draftee (No. 18 overall) and former Detroit Shock guard Tyresa Smith and a pair of CAA defensive players of the year in Smith (‘06, ‘07) and Kyle DeHaven (‘08). Jackson also played key roles in the recruitment of Jocelyn Bailey, a Top 100 player according to HoopGurlz.com in 2008, and Tesia Harris, the 14th-best swing guard in the nation according to the All-Star Girls Report in 2007.

Jackson played four seasons at the University of Richmond and earned a political science degree in May of 2004. She appeared in 50 career games as a guard with the Atlantic 10 Conference power and earned WNIT berths in both 2003 and 2004. Her ‘04 squad advanced to the semifinals.

A former All-State selection at Hazleton High School in Hazelton, Pa., Jackson is a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and has participated in a number of charitable programs, including Habitat for Humanity, Helping Hands and Adopt a Grandparent.

Jackson and her husband, Drew, currently reside in Bay Village with their son, Luke.

The 125,538-square-foot building also includes an office wing that houses the bulk of The University’s athletics department staff.

During the summer of 2011, the JAR saw the addition of team lounges for the men’s and women’s basketball programs, as well as a 1,850-foot weight room. The team lounges feature state-of the-art technology, including multi-screen audio/visual equipment for practice and game video analysis, and opponent scouting. The video systems, designed specifically to meet the needs of the Akron basketball programs. The weight room services both basketball programs, as well as the volleyball and women’s tennis squads.

Improved locker rooms were added to the Rhodes Arena complex in the fall of 1992. The new team facilities were funded through private contribu-tions to the Z-Fund. Rhodes Arena has played host to the Cleveland Cavaliers’ Wine and Gold intrasquad scrimmage in the past, along with the LeBron James Skills Academy (showcase for the nation’s best high school players) and the LeBron James King’s Academy (youth camp). The King James Shooting Stars Classic (AAU tournament) also called James A. Rhodes Arena home at one point.

The facility became the new home of The University of Akron’s athletics teams on Dec. 3, 1983. Opened prior to the 1983-84 season, the facility gave the Zips basketball and volleyball teams a modern indoor athletics complex.

Rhodes Arena was the first phase of a three-part $20.5 million project, which included the $6.5 million Oliver J. Ocasek Natatorium, a $2.5 million renovation of Memorial Hall (demolished in 2010) and completion of the 6,000-square-foot Clifford Skeen Varsity Weight Room, which was located inside Memorial Hall.

Prior to the 2002-03 season, Rhodes Arena received a $1.1 million renova-tion. The project included the addition of a new playing surface and several fan-based capital improvements.

James A. Rhodes Arena provides the Zips with a home-court advantage that rivals any facility in the Mid-American Conference. Also known as Rhodes Arena and the JAR, the facility is home to the men’s and women’s basketball teams, as well as the women’s volleyball squad.

The women’s squad has posted a combined 23-5 record at home over the last two seasons under ninth-year head coach Jodi Kest. That stretch featured a 13-game winning streak at the JAR, the longest in program history.

All 5,500 seats in the arena are retractable to facilitate the use of the 18,000-square-foot floor for physical education activities, concerts, conven-tions, convocation and other special events.

Armchair seating is available on the lower level (1,323) and on the west-side upper level (773), while the remaining seats are bleacher style.

The main scoreboard, also called Zips Vision, features four Opto Tech 7.5’ x 10’ LED displays which showcase replays of the action on the floor plus other programming before, during and after the game. Opto Tech is one of the industry leaders in large scale video displays, whose sports clients include Major League Baseball’s Arizona Diamondbacks, Ohio State University, University of Nebraska, and the Georgia Dome, home of the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons.

The arena is comprised of two floors. In addition to the court, the first level features locker rooms, a sports medicine and training facility, a ticket office, a fan team shop and meeting rooms.

The ground level is also home to the school’s hall of fame, which features photos and information on each inductee. The second floor offers a jogging track and four special multi-purpose labs – suitable for archery, golf, badmin-ton and dancing.

The 2,600-square-foot Tommy Evans Memorial Lounge, used for pre- and post-game receptions and department functions, is housed on the south end of the second floor.

The first phase of the facelift took place during the summer of 2002 when a new hardwood floor was installed. The cost of the project, which was fund-ed by private donations, was $202,500 and was completed in late August. The new floor replaced a surface that was installed when the facility was built in 1983.

Phase two of the project was one which Zips fans have benefited from most, providing a new state-of-the-art video display and scoreboard system – installed in October 2002.

The Cincinnati Floor Company installed the new floor, which was man-ufactured by Robbins Sports Surfaces. The company is no stranger to the basketball world, having installed the floor at Indiana University’s Assembly Hall and Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena, home of the NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers.

The new surface also saw the addition of the school’s new logo and word marks, which were unveiled in July 2002.

In fall 2008, new courtside tables with LED display capabilities, were pur-chased for the venue.

In 2013, a new lighting project was completed inside the arena, as well as the lobby of the JAR.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL TEAM LOCKER ROOMThe women’s basketball team locker room is designed with comfort in mind. From natural lighting from overhead windows to captain’s chairs at each player’s locker, student-athletes are able to relax before, during and after the game. The women’s locker room is located next to the sports medicine complex and includes all-wood lockers and a lounge area with sofas and a flat-screen television.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL COACHING FACILITIESThe women’s basketball coaches’ facility includes offices for head coach Jodi Kest, her assistant coaches and other staff associated with the program. Visitors and student-athletes alike can catch a glimpse of the 2014 Mid-American Conference championship trophy, as well as other memorabilia that help tell the story of Akron Basketball. Throughout the complex, unique-ly designed artwork recap past seasons, milestones and records, and import-ant student-athletes and coaches who make the program what it is today.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL TEAM LOUNGEThe women’s basketball team lounge features state-of-the-art technology, including multi-screen audio/visual equipment for practice and game video analysis, and opponent scouting. The video systems, designed specifically to meet the needs of the Akron basketball program, is synchronized with equipment located in the exisitng coaching staffs’ offices to maximize effi-ciency in video study and game preparation.

The space in the lounge is flexible in its usability and supports a variety of functions, including team meetings, individual study time, social interaction and recruiting visits. Graphic elements emphasize the identity of the pro-gram and the branding of the University and Zips Athletics. Other amenitites include study cubicles with computers and extra tall ceilings and doorways.

RHODES ARENA WEIGHT ROOMThe 1,850-square-foot strength-training room gives the Zips a space for strength and conditioning training inside Rhodes Arena, allowing for the squad to better utilize training time without having to relocate to other buildings for weight room access. The facility is located in proximity to the team’s locker room, team lounge and arena floor. The weight room services both men’s and women’s basketball programs, as well as the volleyball squad.

Women’s Basketball falls to Purdue in NCAA Tournament, 84-55

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - The thirteenth-seeded University of Akron women’s basketball team ended its postseason run Saturday afternoon with an 84-55 loss to fourth-seeded Purdue in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at Mackey Arena.

UA finishes the year with a 23-10 overall mark, tying the school record for most victories in a season, capped by its first NCAA Tournament appearance in the 40-year history of the program.

Rachel Tecca led the Zips with 18 points, and Kacie Cassell added seven points and a game-high 11 assists. Hanna Luburgh grabbed a team-high eight rebounds, but Akron’s sharpshooter was limited to nine points.

Akron was unable to keep pace with Purdue on the glass, as the Boilermakers won the rebounding battle, 50-28. The difference limited UA’s traditional fast-paced transition game and allowed Purdue to put up 19 second-chance points.

Whitney Bays led Purdue (22-8) with 20 points and 13 rebounds in 24 minutes.

The Zips struggled to find their rhythm in the early going, falling behind 20-2 in the first four and a half minutes. Courtney Moses buried two quick 3-pointers for Purdue, and the Boilermakers’ tight defense and dominating presence inside hindered Akron’s ability to run the floor, forcing the Zips into a half-court set for much of the half.

Luburgh picked up her first points of the day on a 3-pointer at the 10:52 mark of the first half, and a long two from Tecca on the Zips’ next possession cut the deficit to 10 points at 30-20 and forced a Purdue timeout.

The Zips continued to hang with the Boilermakers, despite Purdue’s hot hand from the field. The Boilermakers had nine different players score in the opening period, including five 3-pointers.

With under five minutes to play in the half, Luburgh pulled down a monster rebound and kicked it up the floor to Cassell who found Anita Brown in transition, putting the score at 42-30 in Purdue’s favor just before the last media timeout.

The Zips did enough to keep Purdue in their sights, trailing by 12 at halftime, 46-34. Akron harnessed some momentum over the last three minutes, when Carly Young stepped in to take her second charge of the day. Tecca’s turnaround jumper with 2:30 on the clock cut Purdue’s advantage to 10 for the second time.

Purdue started the second half with two quick buckets in the first minute before Akron called a timeout. The Zips could not match Purdue’s pace in the second 20 minutes, falling behind by 19 points by the 16:07 mark.

Akron was held to just six field goals in the second half without a 3-pointer. Purdue’s offense never quite cooled off, as it shot 65.4 percent from the field after halftime.

UA’s 2014 senior class leaves Akron as the winningest class in program history, tallying 74 victories over the last four seasons, and is the first team to win a Mid-American Conference title.

2015 WOMEN’S NATIONAL INVITATION TOURNAMENT (WNIT)

Kansas State powers past Akron, 86-68, in WNIT Opening Round

MANHATTAN, Kan. - The Akron women’s basketball team was forced to play from behind throughout and the Zips were unable to overcome a hot-shooting Kansas State squad in the opening round of the Women’s National Invitation Tournament, as the Wildcats registered an 86-68 triumph.

Anita Brown led Akron with a team-high 22 points on 9-of-16 shooting, while Hannah Plybon added 15 points, all on three-pointers.

In the final game of her distinguished Zips’ career, Sina King registered her team-leading 16th double-double of the season with a 20-point, 10-rebound performance. King finished her career having recorded 1,634 points and 888 rebounds, representing the fourth-highest scoring and third-best rebounding totals in program history.

The Wildcats were paced with a 30-point contest from Haley Texada, while Breanna Lewis, Ashia Woods and Brianna Craig contributed 11, 10 and 10 points, respectively.

The Zips connected on 39 percent of their shots from the field, including making nine three-pointers. Kansas State posted a 57.1 percent shooting mark for the game.

Thanks to Kings’ 10 rebounds, Akron outrebounded the Wildcats, 32-31, including 12-5 on the offensive glass.

The Wildcats scored the game’s first 10 points before a jumper by Brown got the Zips on the scoreboard 2:16 into the affair.

Akron cut into Kansas State’s advantage on back-to-back three pointers from Brown and King to trail, 14-8, at the 15:27 mark.

The Wildcats stretched their lead to 23-12 before Plybon nailed a triple with 11:50 remaining in the initial stanza to cut the deficit to eight, 23-15.

The Zips then struggled with their shots from the field missing eight of their next 10 attempts from the field. Kansas State slowly began to stretch their margin during this span leading by as many as 21 points in the first 20 minutes.

The Wildcats entered the intermission maintaining a 50-32 advantage over Akron.

The Zips connected on 37.9 percent of their first-half shots, while Kansas State attacked the basket at a 60 percent clip.

Brown paced the Zips in the first half with a team-high 15 points on 6-of-10 shooting, while King and Plybon added seven and six points, respectively. Texada paced the Wildcats’ attack with 19 first-half points.

The two sides exchanged the first nine baskets of the second half before back-to-back baskets from King brought the Zips to within 13, 58-45, with 14:26 remaining.

Kansas State answered with a 16-5 run to assume its largest lead of the game, 74-50, lead at the 9:39 mark and the Wildcats didn’t look back en route to notching the 86-68 triumph.

The loss concludes another successful campaign for the Zips, one in which Akron registered 22 wins for third consecutive season.

POSTSEASON TOURNAMENT HISTORY

Women’s Basketball bows out of WNIT with 71-66 loss at Duquesne

PITTSBURGH, Pa. - Sina King surpassed 1,000 career points and the University of Akron shot 47.1 percent from behind the 3-point arc, but nei-ther was enough to carry the Zips to their first postseason victory in a 71-66 loss at Duquesne in the first round of the Women’s NIT.

Hanna Luburgh led all Akron scorers with 19 points and was one rebound short of a double-double with nine. Rachel Tecca was a perfect 6-for-6 from the free throw line en route to 16 points and eight boards, and Taylor Ruper drained 4-of-6 from long range to finish with 14 points.

King ended the night with 15 points, and hit her career milestone with two free throws at the 8:14 mark of the first half. She was 9-for-10 from the line, also grabbing eight rebounds.

The contest was a wild one that featured 17 lead changes and seven ties in 40 minutes. The Zips put together a 9-0 run over the last two minutes of the first half to build a six-point lead at halftime at 37-31.

UA was a perfect 12-for-12 from the charity stripe and out-rebounded the Dukes 26-18 in the first period. Luburgh scored 11 of her points and collect-ed seven of her rebounds during that time.

The second half started off slow for both teams, until Tecca put in a soft jump hook at the 15:33 mark to break the scoreless drought. The Zips held their largest lead of the night at 11 with 13:16 left on the clock after Ruper knocked down back-to-back 3-pointers and forced a Duquesne timeout.

The Dukes slowly started to chip away over the next several minutes, making the most of Akron’s 26 turnovers in all. Trailing by five with 45 seconds to go, Luburgh achieved the improbable and converted a 4-point play to make it a one-point game at 67-66 in Duquesne’s favor with 35 seconds to play.

Akron put on its pressure defense but could not capitalize on a key steal from Cassell as Duquesne knocked down four-straight free throws down the stretch to secure the game.

1999 WOMEN’S NATIONAL INVITATION TOURNAMENT (WNIT)

Zips close season with gutsy loss in WNIT to Michigan State, 76-65

EAST LANSING, Mich. - Despite a game-high 25 points by Akron’s Cheryl Bowles, Michigan State took advantage of a depleted Zips lineup to pull out a 76-65 win in the first round of the Women’s National Invitation Tournament.

Akron led most of the first half, jumping out to a 19-14 advantage with 9:43 before the break. The Spartans went on a 5-0 run to tie the game at 19 and took their first lead, 22-19 on a three-pointer by Maxann Reese with 7:13 left in the half.

MSU extended the lead to as many as seven with 2:37 left until intermission but a 7-3 Zips run over the final two minutes drew Akron to within three, 35-32, at the break.

In the second half, the Zips pulled to within one on two occasions early, but would get no closer. The Spartans extended the lead to as much as 12 points, 61-49, with 9:03 remaining, but the Zips had one more run left.

Keyed by six points from Bowles and five from Abby Hoy, who had 18 total, the Zips used a 13-4 run over the next six minutes to trail by only three with just under three minutes remaining. Akron had a chance to tie with a three-pointer by freshman Hollie Stephenson but it was just off the mark. The Spartans rebounded and took control closing the game with an 11-3 run for the final margin.

In the MAC Tournament, the Zips had advanced to the semifinal, falling to Toledo, 86-65, at the SeaGate Center.

Women’s Basketball Defeated at Wichita State, 67-61, in WBI

WICHITA, Kan. – The fifth-seeded University of Akron women’s basketball team was defeated by fourth-seeded Wichita State, 67-61, Thursday night in the opening round of the Women’s Basketball Invitational at Charles Koch Arena. Senior forward Jolene Tamboue recorded her seventh double-double of the season in her final game as the Kansas native paced the Zips (18-14) with 16 points and 12 rebounds. The Shockers (18-14), who trailed by 11 points at halftime, opened the second period with a 22-6 run and held on late to eliminate Akron from postseason play. Junior Kara Murphy joined Tamboue in double figures with 14 points on 5-for-9 shooting. Jessica Diamond led four WSU players in double figures with 14 points. It was a strong-shooting first half for Akron, which took a 37-26 lead into the locker room, as the Zips connected on 55.6 percent (15-for-27) from the field while converting all six free throw attempts. The Shockers turned the tables in the second half, however, scoring the first six points of the period to cut the deficit to five, 37-32. They saw their lead grow to as many as seven points but lay-ins by Murphy on back-to-back possessions kept UA’s hopes alive; pulling the Zips to within three, 52-49, with 4:15 left. WSU’s Haleigh Lankster answered with a 3-pointer, however, to spark a 7-0 run and hold on for the victory.
