Women's basketball: Miami hands Colorado first loss

CORAL GABLES, Fla. - For the first time this season, the Colorado women's basketball team has tasted defeat.

No. 21 Miami raced past the Buffaloes in the second half for a 73-58 victory at Watsco Center on Sunday.

CU (6-1) hit just 34.8 percent of its shots, while the host Hurricanes (7-2) hit 53.1 percent. An over-reliance on the 3-pointer doomed the Buffs, as they went just 5-for-28 from beyond the arc.

"It was a tough road game against a very good basketball team," CU head coach JR Payne said in a press release from the school.
