STORRS, Connecticut -- Prairie View A&M outscored UConn by seven points over the final 16 minutes of their first-round NCAA tournament game Sunday.
Unfortunately for the Lady Panthers, they were down by 50 points after the first 24 minutes and lost 87-44 to the defending national champions.
"I think it was something we were lacking and that was the confidence in the first 20 minutes and that's what the girls came out and displayed in the second half," Prairie View coach Dawn Brown said. "I told them, 'You guys are going to have to play your hearts out in the last 20 minutes. And that's what they did."
LaReahn Washington scored 13 points to lead Prairie View and freshman Alexus Parker added nine. The Southwestern Athletic Conference tournament champions finished their season 14-18.
