HILLSDALE, Mich. - The #14 ranked Walsh Cavaliers traveled to Hillsdale to take on the Chargers earlier Thursday evening (Jan. 30). The Cavaliers pulled out a one point win over Hillsdale (70-69) in the final two seconds of the game. Walsh continues their 13-game winning streak as they improve to 18-2 overall and 11-0 in the G-MAC. 

Hillsdale led the Cavaliers through the majority of the contest, as Walsh's first lead came at the 6:15 mark of the fourth quarter when Quionche Carter connected for a three. The final six minutes of the game featured three ties and four lead changes, until Alyssa Dean's game-winning layup with only two seconds remaining secured the win for the Cavaliers.
