Weekend Highlights: Cowboys, Cowgirls Pick up Wins on Saturday
Some of the best plays from the court by both the Cowboys and the Cowgirls.
Both of Oklahoma State’s hoops teams picked up victories on Saturday. The Cowboys earned theirs thanks to same late-game heroics from Cade Cunningham in his return, while the Cowgirls cruised to a big road win at KU.
Let’s get into some of the highlights.
Cowboys 81, Razorbacks 77
The Cowboys survived another turnover-heavy first half (15 this time) by shooting lights out. OSU nailed 55 percent of its field-goal attempts in the opening period.
Avery Anderson started off white hot, making his first three shots and finished 5-of-7 from the field (3-of-4 from deep). But his most memorable play was this skywalking reverse layup on a fastbreak.
Here’s another angle of it.
Then this grown-man sway by Matthew-Alexander Moncrieffe led to a runout by Isaac Likekele the other way. I’m surprised they didn’t have to retire that basketball.
The Razorbacks made their own runs and held a five-point lead with just under six minutes remaining.
But crunch time is Cade time.
And then Cade shut it down.
Here’s a look at the full-game reel from OSU.
The Cowboys head to Fort Worth on Wednesday night for an 8 p.m. tipoff against TCU.
Cowgirls 75, Jayhawks 51
The Cowgirls used a big second half from sophomore guard Lauren Fields to extend their win streak to three. Fields score 19 of her career-high 23 in the final two quarters.
Natasha Mack chipped in 21 points, 16 rebounds, six blocks and four steals, marking her 11th double-double this season.
Here are the top plays of the game, courtesy of OSU.
The Cowgirls will see the Jayhawks again on at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, this time on their home turf.
