Senior night?

She was announced as a starter, and walked out for the jump ball to start the game, as one of the jumpers. She didn't jump during the toss, but just stayed there, not moving. The visitors won the tap easily, and immediately scored. During the dead ball after the made basket, the home coach called time out, and put in a substitute for the injured captain. She got her name announced as a starter, and received two standing ovations from both home, and visiting fans, got her name in the local newspaper's box score, and got to "play" in her last high school game.

Did her team lose by two points?
