With two minutes remaining in overtime, Tiana Mangakahia was stuffed by two defenders as she rounded the left side of the arc, looking for Emily Engstler. She lost the ball, and Kendall Spray collected the turnover, drove down the court and splashed a 3-pointer her seventh of the afternoon that stretched the Tigers lead to six points.
Moments later, Mangakahia turned it over again after a Clemson layup and then fouled out. Mangakahia finished with seven turnovers and 10 assists.
