Last second, game-winning threes are fabulous. Unless, of course, you're on the wrong end of one.
In front of 6,115, a regular season-record for a UW women's contest, Utah ended the Cowgirl's 12-game winning streak on the strength of Morgan Warburton's 3-pointer with three seconds remaining.
Down two, #6 Baylor's Angela Tisdale nailed a three with 19 seconds left to put the Bears up one over #25 Texas.

"You have to give Utah credit because they made one more play," fifth-year UW coach Joe Legerski said. "I think in ballgames of this caliber, you can go back through and there maybe several plays you could have grabbed an extra rebound, maybe made an extra shot. But when it comes right down to it, it went to the right person, and Warburton answered it."

The Longhorns had one final possession, which Baylor defended perfectly, clogging the passing lanes underneath the basket. Texas freshman forward Kat Nash pulled up for a jumper from the free-throw line, but Baylor center Danielle Wilson swatted the shot. Brittainey Raven tried in vain to control the loose ball, but it bounced off her foot and out of bounds.
