Holmes Leads WVU Comeback Against TCU

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. - Senior guard Bria Holmes tallied a season-high 30 points, as the West Virginia University women’s basketball team erased a 13-point third quarter deficit to engineer an 83-72 come-from-behind victory over TCU on Wednesday evening at the WVU Coliseum.

Both teams traded jabs in the first half with 11 ties and five lead changes, but WVU (21-8, 10-6 Big 12) held a slight 45-43 lead at the break. TCU (15-12, 7-9) made eight of its first nine shots to open the third quarter and built a 13-point lead with 3:20 remaining. West Virginia finished the final 13:20 of the game with a 32-8 run, as 20 of those 32 points came from Holmes.
