In a game of nationally-ranked teams that had 11 lead changes and nine tie scores, the Hope College women's basketball team fell to Carroll University, 80-75, in overtime at DeVos Fieldhouse on Saturday afternoon. 

No. 21 Carroll, which outscored the Flying Dutch 13-8 during the five-minute extra period, moved to 4-1 on the season, while No. 12 Hope fell to 3-2.

Sophomore Chloe Brunsberg (Chaska, Minnesota / Southwest Christian HS) finished with a career high 18 points to lead the Flying Dutch.

Brunsburg shot 66.7% from 3-point range (4-of-6), including one during the first quarter that helped spark Hope back from an early 15-6 hole. The Flying Dutch trailed, 21-20, after the first quarter following a layup at the buzzer from sophomore Terin Maynard (Jenison, Michigan / Jenison).

The Flying Dutch pulled as much as eight points in the second half. Carroll, however, ended regulation on an 8-2 run.

Both teams missed shots at the end of regulation to force overtime tied at 67-67.

The Flying Dutch surged ahead 73-70 early in overtime, but Carroll responded again and outscored Hope, 10-2, over the final two minutes.

"They're a really good team, they were top 12 in the nation last year. I think we got off to a bad start, but then we came back," said head coach Brian Morehouse. "We dug ourselves in a hole to start the game and then we came back and played really well going forward." 

Freshman Anna Richards (DeWitt, Michigan / Lansing Catholic) chipped in 14 points off the bench to help Hope's bench outscore Carroll by a 58-12 margin. 

Maynard added 10 points for Hope. 

Senior Courtney Lee (Fishers, Indiana / Heritage Christian) brought down a team-high seven rebounds, while freshman Leah Richards (DeWitt, Michigan / Lansing Catholic) and Anna Richards each grabbed seven rebounds. 

"Our bench came up huge today," said Morehouse. "I think everyone coming off of the bench today played really well."
