Jamestown College won another typical battle with Minot State by beating the Beavers 66-56 in the DAC Quarterfinals and now advance to the Semi-finals against Black Hills State on Wednesday. In what proved to be a physical game on both sides, the Jimmies did enough from the field and free throw line, and tightened up its defense down the stretch to hang on.
The Jimmies had double digit leads in both halves, but Minot chipped away both times and had it down to two points with under two minutes remaining, before the Jimmies sealed the win at the free throw line. The Jimmies were lead by Senior, Heidi Fiechtner (pictured), who continued her strong season with 17 points and and 7 rebounds. Kellie Schuneman added 15, including going 5-5 from the free throw line. Freshman Mara Paulson added 12 including hitting 3 big baskets early in the second half. Amanda Rantapaa finished with another strong performance by adding 9 points and holding sharp shooter Whitney Lofteness to 0 points as she went 0-9 from the field.
