Women’s Basketball: ‘Dogs fail to hold off late Washington rally, drop to 1-2

The Fresno State women’s basketball team let one slip away Friday night at home to the University of Washington.

In a back-and-forth game all the way through, the Huskies used a 12-0 run late in the fourth to pull away and secure the 89-79 win.

The ‘Dogs battled early as they hung tough with the Huskies. A layup by Shauqunna Collins and a jumper by Brittany Aikens gave them a 2-point, 22-20 lead over the Huskies at the end of the first quarter.

Fresno State and Washington battled back-and-forth to even the game at 32-32 with 2:34 left in the second quarter, and from that point the ‘Dogs turned it on.
