Buffs battle back late, beat Utah in overtime

For the first two months of the season, the University of Colorado women’s basketball team rolled over opponents with relative ease. After thirteen games the Buffs were still undefeated with an average margin of victory over 19 points a game. On Jan. 14, that early-season dominance came to a crashing halt as a poor second-half performance handed Colorado their first loss at home against Stanford.

The following two weeks since that loss have not been kind for the Buffs. In that span, CU has played in three road games and lost all three. On Friday night Colorado (14-4) finally returned to form with a much-needed 66-62 win in overtime against the University of Utah (10-7).
