GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Colorado senior Darby Kiernan broke her own CU record for points in a game Friday to lead the Buffs to a 23-18 win over Jacksonville, giving the Buffs their first-ever NCAA Tournament win in just the fifth year of the program's existence.
Kiernan finished with seven goals — tying the CU record — and added five assists to finish with a program-record 12 points as the Buffs built a big lead early, withstood a strong Jacksonville surge, and then put the game away with a 5-0 run down the stretch in the second half.
