The outcome of Thursday night’s women’s basketball game between Alabama and No. 10 Texas A&M came down to the final seconds.
Crimson Tide sophomore Karyla Middlebrook drove to the basket, hit a layup and the clock stopped with 1.8 seconds left. The basket should have given Alabama a one-point lead, but the basket was waved off. The score remained in favor of the Aggies, 57-56, as an offensive foul was called on Middlebrook, and Foster Auditorium erupted in protest.
Amongst the chaos, a technical foul was also called on the Alabama bench and Aggie senior Courtney Walker nailed two free throws, finalizing a 59-56 win for Texas A&M.
