Dubuque defeated No. 9 Simpson 72-56 to end the Storm's 13-game winning streak. Mollie Whiting exploded for 32 points and 10 rebounds for the Spartans.
No. 1 DePauw survived a cold shooting night and overcame Wittenberg 56-48. DePauw shot 29.5 percent (18-for-61) but outrebounded the other Tigers by nine. It is DePauw's smallest margin of victory since the 60-59 win over Washington U.
NESCAC fans will have their hands full figuring out the seeding for the upcoming playoffs. Amherst, Williams and Tufts won their regular season finale and finished tied for first with 9-1 records. Tufts received the top-seed by a random selection.
The rest of the conference standings are just as confusing. Six teams finished 4-6 with just five more playoff spots available. Connecticut College is the odd team out.
Montclair State finished an undefeated regular season by dominating TCNJ, 76-47. The Red Hawks will have a first round bye and then play either Ramapo or Rutgers-Newark in the semifinals.
Transylvania defeated Hanover 61-55 to clinch the HCAC title. Alex Botkin had 17 points and 14 rebounds for the Pioneers.
