The University of Michigan women's basketball team came back from a 17-point first-half deficit and had a chance to send the game into overtime down by three as the final second ticked away but could not find the bottom of the net on its final shot and fell to Northwestern, 60-57, on Thursday night (Feb. 5) in Welsh-Ryan Arena.

The Wolverines had two players in double figures, led by 12 points from senior Jessica Minnfield (Toledo, Ohio/Central Catholic). Senior Carly Benson (Carney, Mich./Carney-Nadeau Public School) was also in double digits with 10 points, while junior Krista Phillips (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan/Aden Bowman Collegiate) tallied a game-high nine rebounds.
