LAWRENCE — With 42 seconds remaining in Sunday’s game against Emporia State, Lauren Aldridge stood her ground, drew a charge, and forced a turnover.
While the KU women’s basketball point guard led her team in several key categories against the Hornets, that play may have represented how the Jayhawks were able to claw back from a double-digit deficit more than any other.
KU forced 20 total turnovers, including 13 in the second half, to overcome a one-point halftime deficit en route to a 68-57 victory over ESU at Allen Fieldhouse. The Jayhawks trailed by as many as 11 early in the game.
