PENSACOLA, Fla. – The UWF women's basketball team trailed by as many as 10 points in the fourth quarter and battled back with a chance to tie the game in the closing seconds before turning the ball over, suffering a 48-45 loss to Alabama Huntsville at the UWF Field House Tuesday night.
 
UWF (3-7, 0-4 Gulf South) scored nine-consecutive points early in the fourth to pull within 40-39 but was unable to overtake the Chargers in the final six minutes. 
 
The Argos shot 30 percent in the game and made 10-of-16 free throws. They used 19 offensive rebounds to score 15 second chance points.
 
Sophomore Fanny Hulmi had her second career double-double as she finished with 12 points and 10 rebounds. Junior Danielle Norquest continued her string of consecutive double-doubles with 12 points and a career-high 18 – the most by an Argonaut since Toni Brewer accomplished it twice in the first month of last season.
