January 12, 2007 Nampa, ID (January 11) – Some key shooting in the final seconds gave Northwest Nazarene just the edge they needed to pull out a win over Saint Martin’s 52-49, Thursday in a Great Northwest Athletic Conference game. With the score tied 47-47, NNU’s Brittney Roggenkamp put the Crusaders up by three on a made shot and free throw.

The Crusaders were led by Lindsay Brady with 11 points while Roggenkamp finished with ten. Danielle Dwello posted a double-double with ten points and 12 rebounds.
