UW took on the #6 ranked Colorado Buffs at their home gym on Sunday, losing convincingly 80-57. Chloe Briggs got the start for Jadya Noble, who was still out with an injury. UW attempted to come out more aggressive to keep up with Colorado’s unrelenting pace, but quickly fell behind in the first quarter as Colorado shut them down. Colorado went on a 9-0 run to go up 16-7 and shot 86% from the floor. UW ended the first quarter shooting 33% to Colorado’s 67%.
The second half was not much better for UW as CO kept up the pace, pushing the lead bigger and bigger.
