WESTERVILLE, Ohio – Otterbein dropped a fast-paced matchup with visiting Wilmington during Ohio Athletic Conference women's basketball action in the Rike Center Wednesday night, staying within striking distance but never getting over the hump in an 88-78 defeat.

The Cardinals, dropping their third game in OAC play, fall to 9-5 on the season and 4-3 against the league. Wilmington improves itself to 8-6 overall.

HOW IT HAPPENED:

Wilmington was whistled for five fouls in the early going of the third quarter, putting Otterbein in the bonus and providing a little momentum. The Cards got to within 62-55 after a three pointer from Abby Zerkle before the Quakers scored nine of the final 13 points in the third frame, taking a 71-59 edge into the home stretch.
Otterbein slice the lead to eight points on multiple occasions, but could never get any closer after the 3:52 mark.
