Bella Murekatete scored 19 points and Washington State upset No. 3 Utah 66-58 on Thursday night in the quarterfinals of the Pac-12 women’s basketball tournament.
The seventh-seeded Cougars (21-10) led by three with 39.3 seconds left and had the ball, and rather than foul, the No. 2 seed Utes allowed Charlisse Leger-Walker to virtually dribble out the shot clock, make one pass, get the ball back, and drain a three-pointer with eight seconds left to extend the lead to 64-58.
