UH women’s basketball comeback bid comes up short at Tulane

The UH women’s basketball team suffered a heartbreaking 76-72 loss on the road to Tulane on Sunday.

The Cougars now fall to below .500 for the fifth time this season, honing a 12-13 overall record while dropping to 5-8 in conference play.

Junior forward Bria Patterson led the charge for UH in the early-going, having scored six points in the first quarter as the Cougars jumped out to a 21-15 lead.

Despite zero points between both teams in the first 2:13 of the second quarter, Tulane came out stronger defensively as it began to chip into the UH lead.
