A tale of two basketball comebacks
It was an eventful weekend for both Washington State basketball programs as the men’s and women’s teams made late rallies. The results of those comebacks were very different and for the women’s team, that was a very good thing.
Charlisse Leger-Walker and the Cougs hosted Boise State on Sunday and found themselves trailing by 10 points early in the third quarter. That was after trailing by nine at halftime. Then the offensive floodgates opened. WSU turned a 10-point deficit into a nine-point lead. That didn’t mean the game ended without drama, because Boise State still had a chance to tie the game in the final minute, but the Cougs still came out on top.
