Top-ranked Oregon stunned the United States women’s national team, 93-86, on Saturday to hand the Americans their second loss to a college team in program history.
The Americans haven’t lost a major international game since falling to Russia in the semifinals of the 2006 World Championships. The only other loss to a college program came in 1999 when Tennessee won on a shot by Kara Lawson, who was a freshman that season, with 10 seconds left. The United States won the next 20 college games after that loss to the Lady Vols before Saturday.
