Speaker 1: This is a one oh three nine at ninety eight
three ESPN Sports Center updates. For the first time in
program history, the BYU women's basketball team has won a
Big twelve tournament game. Yesterday, the Cougars in Blue defeated
the Cougars in Red, a seventy six to sixty six
win over Houston. Lanny Gibb got off to a hard start,
leading the Cougars with eleven points in a Thai game
heading in a half time, but everyone else picked up
the slack and she was held scoreless to start the
second half. In a game where multiple players including GiB
we're in foul trouble, eight b Yu found a way
to come out on top. This is the team's tenth
Big twelve win of the season, matching the total from
the first two years combined. Olivia Hamlin, Lata Rocal, Delanny Gibb,
and Sydney Binali all scored between fourteen and sixteen points
for the Cougars. As it was a team effort to
advance the next round. Earlier today at twelve thirty, the
team tipped off against Utah's there trying to go three
to zero against the Utes this year, sticking with women's
basketball their tournament helps remain alive. Following the win. During
the broadcast yesterday, ESPN bracketologist Charlie Cream said BYU would
have to beat Utah and most likely top seed at
TCU as well in the next round to secure a
spot in the NCAA tournament. Yesterday we mentioned the women's
track and field team will have eight entries in nationals,
and today we share that seven entries from the men
will be joining them. That group consists of Carter Cutting,
Tavan Kitchen, and Jane's brother Isaac Heningerd, among others. Speaking
of Jane, she and Riley Chamberlain were placed on the
third edition of the Bowerman Watch List yesterday by the USTFCCCA.

female track and field athletes each year. The six and
