COLUMBUS, Ohio -- For the second straight game, Arike Ogunbowale made a game-winning shot, this one with 0.1 seconds left, as Notre Dame beat Mississippi State 61-58 to win the national championship on Sunday.
Two days ago, Ogunbowale made a jumper with a second left in overtime to beat UConn. In the title game Sunday, she did one better with a 3-pointer over Victoria Vivians as the clock ticked near zero. Notre Dame scored the game's last eight points to win its second national championship and the first since 2001.
Ogunbowale's winner came after a wild sequence with the score tied; both teams got steals with less than 20 seconds to play.
