PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Somewhere in the second overtime, Drexel coach Denise Dillon was running out of water and Northeastern's Daynia La-Force Mann was running out of movies to quote. It was the game that wouldn't end.
The teams went at it for five overtimes Thursday night, exhaustion and injuries taking a toll. Drexel finally prevailed, winning 98-90 in the longest game in NCAA Division I women's basketball history. Two Division II games have gone to five overtimes.
"As the game went on, we just tried to find humor in it," Dillon said Friday. "It was almost like a boxing match."
