Rough offensive night dooms Buffs in loss to Washington State

Midway through the second quarter, the University of Colorado women’s basketball team air-balled two three-pointers in the span of only a few minutes. The missed shots were two of many misses for the Buffs, as Colorado managed only 19 first-half points against Washington State. The Buffs emerged with a newfound vigor in the second half and leaped out to a seven-point lead. The lead didn’t last long, as ultimately, an inconsistent effort on both sides of the ball allowed the Cougars to snatch a 63-56 win over Colorado at the CU Events Center.

“I didn’t coach a perfect game,” said head coach JR Payne.
