LAS VEGAS, N.M. – Chadron State’s Lisa Durden hit two free throws with 3.3 seconds to play and New Mexico Highlands missed a long range shot as time expired to give the Eagles a 66-64 Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference victory Friday evening.

After running down the time in the backcourt, Durden, who finished with nine points, drove to the lane and drew a foul on the Cowgirls. Durden calmly sank both foul shots and Highlands’ final shot spun off the back end of the rim.

Dallas Shaw led the Eagles with her second consecutive double double – 11 points and 12 rebounds – andGreer Babbe added 11 points, five boards and two blocks.

Guzman finished with 10 points and Sadie Waugh scored nine more.
