LAS VEGAS — The top-seeded BYU women’s basketball team enjoyed an ideal start in Tuesday’s West Coast Conference championship game.
But it ended in bitter disappointment for the Cougars.
No. 6 seed San Francisco rallied from a 15-point first-quarter deficit, took its first lead with 17.2 seconds left and held on to knock off BYU 70-68.
With the win, the Dons won their first WCC tournament title since 1997 and earned an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.
