The end of the game in Salt Lake didn’t make Adia Barnes happy. She wasn’t sure that there was enough time on the clock for the moves that got Alissa Pili to the line for the winning free throws. But if Arizona women’s basketball had done a few things earlier in the game, it wouldn’t have mattered.
One thing to change is to cut down on fouls. Arizona had three foul out with Esmery Martinez leaving on the final whistle that put Pili on the line. Both Shaina Pellington and Cate Reese were disqualified before that.
