Wildcats pick up first America East win of the year at the buzzer vs. Hartford

Amanda Torres becomes the 22nd player in program history with 1,000 career points
DURHAM, N.H. – The last of junior Helena Delaruelle's (Enghien-les-Bains, France) career-high five 3-point field goals came from 42 feet out as time expired to lift the UNH women's basketball team to Wednesday night's 69-66 America East victory against Hartford at Lundholm Gym.
Delaruelle paced three Wildcats (4-12, 1-4 America East) in double figures with a career-best 18 points, which matched senior Ivy Gogolin (Hopkinton, Mass.) for game-high honors. Graduate student Amanda Torres (Hudson, N.H.) finished with 16 points and became the 22nd player in school history to reach the 1,000-point career scoring plateau.
After falling behind 66-56 with 2:01 remaining, Hartford (1-14, 1-3 AE) came storming back courtesy of a 10-0 run that culminated in a game-tying layup from Marina Paula with five seconds remaining.
Delaruelle then pulled up from just inside mid court and swished her final 3 to deliver the Wildcats their first conference victory of the season. She went 6-for-12 from the floor, 5 of 8 beyond the arc, added seven rebounds, six assists and a career-high-matching four steals.
Torres, who went 6-for-10 and made each of her two 3s, joined the 1,000-point club on a straightaway jumper with 46 seconds remaining in the half to knot the score at 29. Gogolin, who shot 6-for-7 from the floor and 6 of 9 at the free throw line, snapped the deadlock with a jumper of her own at the 13-second mark to give the Wildcats a 31-29 lead at the intermission.
Paula paced the Hawks with 17 points on 5-of-9 FG shooting and 7-for-7 free throw shooting. Jabria Ingram tallied 15 points and seven assists, Carmen Villalobos finished with a double-double (12 points, 10 rebounds) and Abby Streeter went 4 of 8 from long range for 12 points.
The Wildcats rebounded from a slow start (trailed 9-4 with 7:23 left in the first quarter) to lead 16-13 after one. UNH parlayed a 7-1 run over the final 2:54 of the period, including an and-1 layup from Gogolin, off a Delaruelle entry pass, with 1:22 left that provided the 'Cats with their first lead (13-12).
A back-and-forth third quarter featured four lead changes before the Hawks took a 46-45 lead to the fourth. Torres' only points of the quarter were two free throws with 4.4 seconds left to trim the deficit to one.
