An exciting college women's basketball season came to a close in a 73-45 lose to Trine University in a Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association tournament semi final at DeVos Fieldhouse. 

The Britons kept it close for the first half. Trine lead by four at the end of the first quarter and only lead by 6 midway through the second quarter. MIAA MVP Brandi Dawson made a pair of layups and got contributions from her teammates as Trine opened up a 12 point lead at the half. Trine pulled away in the second half outscoring the Britons by 16. 

Coach Doreen Carden said "I give a lot of credit to our seniors. We overcame a lot of adversity. We had so many injuries the whole year."

"Our kids played hard tonight. We started a different lineup, a lot of kids who came off the bench had to play different roles for us."

"We have a good team coming back. They got a taste of what it is like. We are excited with what the future holds if we get a few kids in combined with what we have."

Leading the group and expected to return next season are All-MIAA performers Evelyn Wischmeyer and Rain Hinton. Hinton lead the Britons with 16 points.
