Minnesota's Rachel Banham ties NCAA scoring record with 60 points, Northwestern falls to Minnesota 112-106 in 2OT

Rachel Banham is a basketball magician, there's really no other way to put it. The redshirt senior from Lakeville, Minnesota tied an NCAA scoring record with 60 points on Sunday leading Minnesota (16-7, 8-4 Big Ten) to a 112-106 double overtime win over Northwestern (14-10, 3-9).

Just like the last time these two teams played, the game started out fast. Minnesota's Mikayla Bailey opened the scoring with a three and then Rachel Banham added two of her own. Minnesota would finish the half shooting 60 percent from deep. Unlike last time however, Northwestern managed to keep pace and not fall behind by 19.
