Bowling Green State University junior guard Amy Velasco dribbled three-quarters the length of the floor in 3.8 seconds and sank a five-foot right-handed floater at the buzzer to give the Falcons a 68-66 victory over Duquesne University at the Stroh Center Monday.The play was designed with deception in mind because BGSU coach Fred Chmiel thought the Dukes were expecting the hot hand of senior guard Lexi Fleming to shoot the game winner.The Falcons ran a stack play with the appearance that Fleming would curl out to the point, and two defenders followed Fleming, leaving the lane open for Velasco.
