The Tulsa women's basketball team dropped a 59-53 decision to 2nd-ranked Division II Alaska-Anchorage on Thursday afternoon in the 40th annual and final Great Alaska Shootout at the Alaska Airlines Center in Anchorage, Alaska.
"I am proud of the way we competed the entire tournament," Head Coach Matilda Mossman said. "It came down to the charge call at the 1:26 mark. We had a one-point lead, Shug makes a basket, but is called for the foul and Alaska-Anchorage finishes with a 9-2 run. I am proud of the way we weathered the storm when we were down 11, but UAA played really hard and played with urgency in the end.
