Ballarat Rush lost in a tight finish by three points at the Minerdome on Saturday night.
Hobart held off a desperate Rush three-point attempt to level scores with three seconds on the clock.
Rush trailed by six points at half-time but clawed back strong to pinch the lead half-way through the third quarter, sparking a nail-biting finish in which neither team could get a clear break.
Nat Taylor (15 points), Kate Willey (15 points, six rebounds) and Andrea McMahon (14 points) had the biggest impact on the scoreboard for Rush.
