The Lady Saints found themselves trailing by 6 with less than a minute remaining. The Lady Saints fought hard, knocked down a free throw and forced a turnover and made a layup to get within 3 points. GMCS would force a tough shot and got the rebound with just a few seconds remaining. From the other end of the court, there was a pass, a dribble, and a last-second heave and the game-tying three-pointer fell just short, as the Lady Saints great season came to an end with a 30-27 loss to Lakewood.
