In the closing minute, UDM senior Zemora Davis, who scored a game-high 20 points, hit a key jumper and the Titans were 4-of-4 from the line to help clinch the 4-point victory over nationally-ranked Georgia.

In the first half, Detroit senior Sandi Brown netted a 2-pointer to give the Titans a four-point advantage (21-17) with just under 10 minutes left in the stanza. Brown added two more points about a minute later and junior Brigid Mulroy then collected a 2-point bucket to keep Detroit in the lead (25-21) over the Bulldogs. Georgia sophomore Angela Puleo hit one from long range to tie the game at 32 with 31 seconds left, but Mulroy responded as she nailed a trey with eight seconds on the clock to send the Titans into the break with a 3-point advantage (35-32).

Allen collected her first career double-double with a team third-best 13 points and tied for a game-high 11 rebounds, all of which were on the defensive end.

CALIHAN HALL
