TU loses third straight home game this month
It was another disappointing night for the Tulsa Golden Hurricane as they played the Tulane Green Wave last Wednesday night at the Reynolds Center. For the third time in the month of February, Tulsa lost while playing at home. They had not lost three straight home games since the 2016-2017 season.
Tulane opened the scoring to begin the game, but Tulsa immediately responded by tying the game at two points each. Over the next few minutes, Tulsa and Tulane went back and forth as to who held the lead. Just past the halfway point of the first quarter, Tulsa had a four-point lead. However, this was as large a lead as they would get during the entire game as Tulane came roaring back with a 15-0 run, which they carried into a 38-25 halftime lead.
