TULSA, Okla. (AP) Frank Haith has coached various teams to some huge wins over the years, and he wanted everyone to know how much Tulsa s gritty performance against unbeaten No. 5 Houston meant to his team.
“This one was special,” Haith said of Tulsa s 65-64 win on Tuesday night. “Houston is one of the best teams in the country. I hope everyone understands that.”
Tulsa needed a last second dash to the basket by senior all-conference forward Brandon Rachal, who was fouled with one tenth of a second remaining and made both free throws to upend the Cougars.
Rachal s late free throws lift Tulsa past No 5 Houston
