For the first time in 10 years, Houston women’s basketball has started off the season 3-1 after a 61-59 victory over Stephen F. Austin on Friday night at Fertitta Center.
The Cougars’ defense was stifling all game, holding a Ladyjacks offense that entered the contest averaging 75 points to just 59 points.
The full-court press that gave Auburn problems in UH’s last contest worked well against SFA, as the Cougars forced seven first quarter turnovers.
