STILLWATER — The shot seemed to go sky-high, but came down soft on the rim, bounced off the backboard and in.
Oklahoma State senior Mandy Coleman could only smile as she ran back down the court after her 3-pointer. TCU had been flirting with cutting the Cowgirls' lead to two possessions, but the big shot buried the Horned Frogs.
Oklahoma State went on to win 85-72 Monday night at Gallager-Iba Arena, concluding the regular season with a 20-9 record and going 11-7 in the Big 12 Conference.
A valuable win for the Cowgirls' NCAA Tournament standing, and an emotional one on a night when they celebrated the final home game of four seniors — Coleman, Kaylee Jensen, Loryn Goodwin and Katarina Adamovic.
