"This was a great win for our team confidence but it is also just one game," said fourth-year Calvin women's coach John Ross. "It puts us in first place in our league which is where we want to be but we also have another big game coming up against Olivet on Wednesday."

John Carroll improved to 9-6, victimizing No. 4 Ohio Northern 63-61 at home.
