DALLAS -- When Mississippi State guard Morgan William made a jump shot at the buzzer from just outside the free-throw line to topple Connecticut and its 111-game winning streak on Friday night, it captured the attention of women's college basketball.
It sent Mississippi State into a frenzied celebration of its NCAA Tournament semifinal victory. The Bulldogs (34-4) advanced to play South Carolina (32-4) in an all-Southeastern Conference national championship game on Sunday evening at American Airlines Center.
It brought the Huskies face to face with the agony of defeat for the first time in more than 28 months.
