SPRINGFIELD — The Sandburg women's basketball team pushed nationally ranked Lincoln Land to the final minute, but the Loggers outlasted the Chargers 64-55 on Tuesday night.

The Chargers (2-3) trailed fifth-ranked and unbeaten Lincoln Land 28-18 after the opening quarter but closed within 46-40 on a pair of Tiera Hall free throws with 6:10 to play in the third.

Hailey Redding's 3-pointer with 6:36 left in the contest got Sandburg within 59-51. A Paige Huffman trey with 1:27 to play made it 61-55, but that was as close as the Chargers would get.
