MONMOUTH, Ore. --- The Western Oregon women's basketball team led throughout most of the game, but fell short to MSU Billings 59-58 Saturday at New PE Building.

The Wolves (7-6, 1-4) led 56-49 with 4:50 left in the contest following a Kylee Arzner 3-pointer before going cold from the field and the Yellowjackets (13-4, 4-2) going on a 10-0 run to take a 59-56 lead with 1:01 left.

WOU pulled within a point after Cali McClave drained a pair of free throws to make it 59-58 with 47 seconds left and had a chance at the end, but the Wolves' shot was blocked just before the final buzzer sounded.

Kylee Arzner came off the bench to lead WOU with 17 points, going 3-for-7 from 3-point range. McClave had 13 points and three assists for the Wolves.

WOU returns to action Thursday at Simon Fraser.
