WSU drops 3rd straight game with loss to ASU
WSU Photo Services The state of Arizona was not kind to the Washington State women’s basketball team this week. After losing by nine to Arizona on Friday, the Cougs suffered a 67-61 loss to Arizona State on Sunday.
The loss was WSU’s third straight defeat following its win against No. 5 UCLA. On Sunday, the Cougars ran into issues in the third quarter. Trailing by five at halftime, the Cougs dug themselves into a huge hole in the third quarter by making just 3-of-11 shots. ASU, meanwhile, made 7-of-13 shots in the quarter to extend the lead to 15 points.
WSU surged back in the fourth quarter, but it was too little, too late.
