Catching up on the weekend's biggest women’s college basketball games

The GIST: The weekend’s slate of women’s college basketball games had a little bit of everything, from upsets, to star performances, to a Texas-sized serving of revenge.
No. 4 Texas gets revenge on No. 2 South Carolina: Less than a month after their brutal road loss to the Gamecocks, the Longhorns returned the favor yesterday, coming away with a 66–62 victory — just South Carolina’s second loss in nearly two years. Longhorns superstar sophomore Madison Booker recorded 20 points and 11 rebounds. Horns all the way up.
No. 7 USC dominates No. 8 Ohio State: The Big Ten showdown was decided in the paint thanks to USC senior Kiki Iriafen, who put on a show with 24 points and 13 rebounds in the 84–63 dub. But it was a whole-team effort from the Trojans — three other players finished in double-digits, including sophomore star JuJu Watkins with 17 points.
No. 25 Oklahoma State upsets No. 12 Kansas State: Shooters shoot, and that’s exactly what Oklahoma State senior Anna Gret Asi did in her team’s 85–55 upset win over K-State. The guard finished with 24 points on eight made 3-pointers (!!!), more than half of her team’s 14 buckets from downtown. On fire.
Michigan wins The Mitten: The Wolverines’ freshman trio was dominant — Syla Swords led with 19 points, Olivia Olson had 14, and Mila Holloway added 10 — as Michigan secured a 71–61 dub over intrastate blood rival No. 20 Michigan State. With three straight wins in the big, bad Big Ten, the Wolverines might be peaking at just the right time.
