So, the Bradley women won at the final game at Robertson Memorial Field House! Devyn Flanagan scored 18 points and only had 2 fouls, and reached the 1000-point mark early in the first half (after this game, she has 1013 career points). UNI only scored 2 points in the first 10 minutes of the game, but they managed to get some more points in the half. Bradley led 39-19 at the half after a 3/4-court length buzzer shot managed to make it into the hoop. UNI had a run of its own in the second half, cutting the Bradley lead to 5 at one point, but Bradley fought back and UNI never got closer than that.

The final chapter in the storied history of Robertson Memorial Fieldhouse was written tonight as the Lady Braves subdued the women of Northern Iowa 79 ??“ 63. Sonja Harris was big on the boards and was one of five Braves in double figures. The others were Rachel Merriman, Skye Johnson, Raisa Taylor, and last but not least Devyn Flanagan.
Flanagan stole the show with a team high 18 points, but it was her career total surpassing 1000 that was the highlight. Needing only 5 to become just the 14th Lady Brave to reach 1000 Devyn wasted no time as she scored her 5th at just 16:22 in the first half.
Bradley raced out to a 7 ??“ 0 lead and padded it to 21 ??“ 2. They stretched the lead to 20 at 30 ??“ 10. The first half lead stayed in that range. The half ended as UNI missed a shot with just a few seconds remaining and then Devyn launched a half court shot that was nothing but net as time expired for a 39 ??“ 19 BU advantage.
UNI chipped away in the 2nd half and closed to 5 at 62 ??“ 57 with 5:32 left. BU??™s lead varied in the 5 ??“ 10 point range. The final drama ended with BU in front by 9 at 68 ??“ 59 when UNI missed a shot under the basket. BU went down and scored as the Panther coach jawed at the official drawing a T. That proved to be the Panther??™s last growl.
