WSU upsets No. 8 Arizona on Senior Day, 72-67

For the second straight year, the Washington State Cougars upset a top 10 Arizona WIldcats team in Pullman — this year’s final score, 72-67, on Sunday.

WSU (18-8, 10-5 in Pac-12) hung tough with No. 8 Arizona (19-4, 9-5) and even controlled the game at multiple stages, having the lead for 26:15. The Cougs pulled away late in the game, anchored by a 7-0 Johanna Teder run to all but seal the Senior Day victory.

The win launches WSU into second (!!) in the Pac-12 standings and puts WSU in a great spot to get a first-round bye in the Pac-12 tournament, needing just one more win or one Utah loss to clinch a top four seed.
