WKU has along tradition of strong women’s basketball . The last time we played them we lost by 4 points in Oxford in a WNIT game. They recruit internationally and their leading scorer is from Egypt. They have 3 6-4 girls, but are 8th in the nation at forcing turnovers ( 23 per game). That has been a big weakness of Miami.
Miami loses at the buzzer 6-58. Miami had a lead with under 2 minutes to play and basically got very sloppy and gave the game away. Also. Tajah Foster Walker hurt in the second half. Her own teammate ran into her knee.
