Tucker And SWOSU to National Title Game
A former Bartlesville Lady Bruin is headed for the National Championship game in NCAA Division II basketball.
Southwestern Oklahoma State won its 34th game in a row on Wednesday night, topping Indiana University-Pennsylvania 66-57 in the national semifinals.
The Lady Bulldogs had to outscore Indiana by 13-points, 21-8 in the fourth quarter to grab the nine-point win.
Again Tucker was instrumental in the victory. She played all 40-minutes and scored 11 points. She was a major part of a 13-2 run for SWOSU that put them on top for good down the stretch.
Now she and the Lady Bulldogs will take on Lubbock Christian for the title. That ballgame tips on Friday evening.
SWOSU has beaten Lubbock Christian 77-75 in a non-conference game in Weatherford, Oklahoma earlier this year.
