Nighthawks Face Tough Offensive Night Against Seawolves

ANCHORAGE, Alaska – Northwest Nazarene women's basketball continued their games in Alaska on Saturday as they went head to head with Alaska Anchorage. In a difficult battle the NNU team was unable to stop the strong Seawolves team, falling 86-47.

The third quarter saw NNU's offense trying to push back, with Kate Clark knocking down free throws and a pull-up jumper to contribute to the scoreboard. Chloe Deharo also added points from the line, and Sadi Clemons found success inside with a layup. 

In the final quarter, Northwest Nazarene continued to fight, but Alaska Anchorage maintained control with a final score of 86-47.
