CU Buffs women stun No. 14 Arizona, advance to Pac-12 Tournament semifinals
The Colorado Buffaloes have now played spoilers to the Arizona Wildcats twice in less than a week.
On Saturday night in Boulder, the Buffs men’s basketball team handed the Wildcats a double-digit loss. Then on Thursday, the Buffs women’s team topped Arizona in a stunning game.
The Buffs started off the Pac-12 Women’s Basketball Tournament with a bang on Wednesday by defeating Washington before landing a huge upset of Arizona in a grind, 45-43.
The Wildcats will leave Sin City in a state of shock, while the Buffs move onto the semifinals.

Kindyll Wetta was phenomenal for the Buffs, stuffing the stat sheet with six points, eight rebounds, four assists and three steals. Oh, and she is just a freshman.
Things were going well for Arizona, but the Buffs played lockdown defense down the stretch.
