Colorado women's basketball dominates SE Louisiana in WBIT first round
Colorado women's basketball dominates SE Louisiana in WBIT first round Colorado women's basketball cruised past Southeastern Louisiana in their WBIT first-round matchup Thursday evening. The Buffaloes jumped out to a 12-2 lead and never looked back, taking down the Lady Lions 73-41. The Buffaloes' defense was imposing, holding SE Louisianan to just 26% from the field and 14% from the 3-point line. Offensively, Colorado hit their shots at a respectable clip, but the 19 turnovers will be something that head coach JR Payne will want to have cleaned up by the time Sunday's second-round game tips off. The Buffs used dominant bookend quarters to put away the Lions, closing the game by only allowing five points while holding them to 15.4% shooting. Lior Garzon led Colorado with 18 points on 6-11 shooting and 2-5 from behind the arc. Jade Masogayo added 15 points of her own, going an efficient 5-6 from the field and knocking down five of her eight free throws. Do it all point guard Kindyll Wetta had a near triple-double with 10 points, seven rebounds and six assists. The Buffaloes' game wasn't perfect, but it was good enough, especially defensively, to earn them a comfortable win at home. Colorado will play Gonzaga in the WBIT second round on Sunday, March 23, at 1:00 p.m. MT. Follow Charlie Strella on X, Threads, and Instagram.
