Led by freshmen stars Olivia Hamlin and Sydney Benally, the Cougars overcame a one-point deficit with clutch three-pointers, never relinquishing their seven-point lead. Despite Kansass early lead and ten ties, BYUs defensive prowess and offensive explosion in the fourth quarter secured their four-point victory. Hamlins twenty-three points, including four crucial threes, and Benallys fifteen points, ten in the second half, propelled the team to their first postseason win streak. With Lara Rohkohls six blocks and a strong transition game, BYU held Kansas to thirty-seven point five percent shooting and forced thirteen turnovers.
