The hardest part of mowing a lawn is getting the mower started.
All the grass in sight in Lawrence, Kansas, might have been dead and brittle when the Oklahoma State Cowgirls played the Kansas Jayhawks on Saturday night, but once OSU got started, it mowed down its competition, defeating KU 75-51.
The Cowgirls struggled to get started, scoring only nine points in the first quarter, shooting 15% from the field and turning the ball over six times.
“I think they (KU is) really good defensive team that is really well coached, and they got a member on their staff that was a part of our program, so there was a familiarity with the things we do and all of that, and I think that was a factor,” OSU coach Jim Littell said.
