Sooner women stun West Virginia
Associated Press
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Madi Williams scored 21 points and Taylor Robertson 20 and Oklahoma pulled off a surprise 72-71 win over 19th-ranked West Virginia on Saturday.
Facing a 66-57 deficit entering the fourth quarter, the Sooners went on a 15-0 run over a nearly eight-minute span and the Mountaineers never recovered.
West Virginia missed 11 of 13-shot attempts in the fourth quarter and turned it over seven times. The Mountaineers coughed it up a total of 20 times.
Despite the collapse, Kirsten Deans buried a 3-pointer with 28 seconds left to bring West Virginia within the game’s final margin.
After an OU turnover, and following a West Virginia timeout, Esmery Martinez missed a short jump shot for the Mountaineers.
Deans came up with the offensive rebound, who then found Madisen Smith for an open 3 but her shot came up short as time expired.
Gabby Gregory scored 12 for Oklahoma (8-9, 5-7 Big 12 Conference) and Skylar Vann 10.
Deans led West Virginia (16-3, 10-3) with 22 points, Kysre Gondrezick scored 19 and Jasmine Carson 10.
OU heads home to face Texas Tech on Wednesday.
On the same day, West Virginia is at No. 7 Baylor.
