Lady Tops aim for at least a share of C-USA title in regular-season finale

Western Kentucky's women's basketball team can clinch at least a share of the 2017-18 Conference USA regular-season championship Saturday at the Don Haskins Center against UTEP in El Paso, Texas.

The Lady Toppers, who will play their final regular-season game Saturday at 2 p.m. (CT) against the Miners, can secure at least a share of the title with a victory or a UAB loss at UTSA.

On Thursday, WKU twice rallied from double-digit deficits at Southern Miss, erasing a 12-point deficit in the first half and a 13-point hole in the second half, but the furious comeback fell just short as the Lady Toppers fell, 69-63.
