UH women’s basketball cruises past Tulsa

The UH women’s basketball team bounced back into the win column with a dominant 60-37 victory against Tulsa at Fertitta Center on Saturday.

UH struggled in the opening minutes of the first period, conceding an 8-0 from the opening tip-off.

Propelled by an improved defensive effort, UH managed to halt Tulsa’s run and pull the game to an 11-10 deficit by the end of the first quarter.

In a period even more defensive-minded than the first, UH only scored eight points all quarter, still managing to outscore Tulsa, who only managed five points in the period as the Cougars led by a slim 18-16 margin at halftime.
