TEMPE, Ariz. — Kelsey Plum led a closing fury for the eighth-ranked Washington women’s basketball team that enabled the Huskies pull away from No. 19 Arizona State 65-54 on Sunday night.
The Huskies (18-2, 6-1 Pac-12) were tied at 48-48 before they closed with a 17-6 run to claim the victory. Plum scored 13 of those points and finished with 34 for the game.
And she did it without her patented long-range shooting touch. She finished just 2 for 8 from three-point range.
In the decisive run for the Huskies, Plum drove to the hoop to score most of her points.
