On Sunday afternoon, the Colorado Buffaloes women’s basketball team suffered its first loss of the season, dropping a defensive battle with the Boise State Broncos, 50-47.
While CU did shoot better than Boise State from the field — 34% to 32% —the Buffs were 0-of-17 from beyond the arc. That broke a streak for the Buffs, as they had hit at least one 3-pointer in 125 straight games before Sunday.
The game was a battle from the start. Neither team led by more than five points and the two teams exchanged 16 lead changes. Jade Masogayo was the only Buff to reach double-digits at 13 points while also leading the team with seven rebounds. CU was, however, without its best shooter as Frida Formann missed her third consecutive game with a leg injury.
After falling to 2-1, Colorado will face the Nevada Wolf Pack on Tuesday (8 p.m. MT) at the Tahoe Blue Event Center in Stateline, Nevada. The Mountain West Network will provide the broadcast.
