“It was one of those games that was just hard,” Utah coach Lynne Roberts said. “We kind of had to do it by committee. It wasn’t a pretty game. It wasn’t our best game. Coming off that game Friday ... we wanted that badly, and we were a little flat coming out of the gates. But we found way.” “In the Pac-12, the best conference in the country, you always have to be ready,” Kneepkens said. “Any team can beat anybody any night of the week. It makes it a lot of fun. Obviously brings a lot. Scoring. Rebounding. Just her presence on the inside. We just all had to buy in to giving more, score a little more and get a couple more rebounds.”
Utah shot 44.2% and made 6 of 21 3-point attempts. The Utes ranked fifth in NCAA Division I in both scoring at 84.2 points per game and in field goal percentage coming in.Erikstrup’s third 3-pointer gave Arizona State a 59-57 lead with 6:58 left, and Hunt’s layup with 1:51 remaining tied it at 65 before Kneepkens was fouled on a drive to the basket and made both foul shots. The Sun Devils missed their next four field goal attempts while Utah extended its lead at the foul line.
