Western Kentucky's women's basketball overcame its largest deficit in nearly three years in its second game at the Gulf Coast Showcase on Saturday, erasing a 14-point second-half lead for Kent State to earn a 79-73 overtime victory at Germain Arena in Estero, Fla.
The 14-point comeback victory is WKU’s largest since coming from 16 points down to defeat Georgetown in the Puerto Rico Classic on Dec. 21, 2013. The Lady Toppers improved to 3-2 on the season with the victory, while Kent State fell to 2-4.
WKU will now face George Washington on Sunday at 12:30 p.
