Sophomore guard Miya Crump rises up for a layup in UH women’s basketball’s victory over USF. | Andy Yanez/The CougarHouston’s NCAA Tournament hopes took a major blow Tuesday evening as the Cougars fell to Cincinnati 65-57.
Late in the third quarter, the Cougars took a series of charges on the defensive end of the floor to spark their offense, who struggled to find any kind of rhythm throughout the first half.
UH hit its next four 3-pointers and took the lead for the first time all game early in the fourth quarter.
Up six, it appeared as if the Cougars would pull away but they quickly cooled off from the field, only scoring four points over the last 7:30 minutes of play.
