8 WOMEN'S BASKETBALL RECAP
Texas edges Kansas in two overtimes
Kansas almost found the toughness it needed to upset a ranked team, but fell just short as it lost 85-82 to No. 14 Texas.
"It's no different than the other night; we struggled to find a way to finish," coach Bonnie Henrickson said.
After trailing by six with a minute and a half to play, the Jayhawk's outlook for an upset seemed rather bleak. Then sophomore forward Aishah Sutherland made her first basket of the game while drawing a foul. She made the free throw and one minute later, freshman guard Monica Engelman drained a three with 14 seconds remaining to tie the game up and send it into overtime.
Kansas may not have even needed the overtime period as it had chances to win in regulation. What killed the Jayhawks, though, was that they allowed the Longhorns to pull in 17 offensive rebounds in regulation.
"A box out is something you can control," Henrickson said. "If you do that in regulation you're not in overtime."
The Jayhawks dominated the opening minutes of the first overtime, leading by as much as six. Texas came back, though, and sophomore guard Ashleigh Fontenette did her best Monica Engelman impression as she sunk a three pointer in traffic with one second remaining.
That shot sent the game into a second overtime and erased the Jayhawks last lead of the game as the Longhorns controlled the second overtime to collect their fifth straight win.
"We put ourselves in position to win a couple of big games. We haven't found a way to finish, though." Henrickson said.
