ASU pulls away in OT to top Benedict 76-69

ALBANY, Georgia — It’s going to take more than just the starting five to get the Albany State Lady Rams back into postseason play.

Saturday afternoon in a key SIAC game with Benedict, the Lady Rams’ bench came through in the clutch to help them defeat Benedict College 76-69 in overtime at the HPER Gymnasium.

It was junior Kyasha Wilson that hit a pair of 3-pointers late in the second half to keep the Lady Rams in the game. Zuri Frost knocked down two free throws with 0.3 seconds left in regulation to force overtime, and it was Jillian Anderson who scored five of ASU’s first six points in the overtime period to extend the lead.

Head coach Robert Skinner said he was proud of the production he got from his team, and he said it was one of the most-complete games his team has played this season.
