TAMPA, Fla. (AP) – Alexis Hornbuckle’s only basket of the game was enough to get Tennessee back in the championship game.
Hornbuckle’s putback with seven-tenths of a second left lifted the Lady Vols to a 47-46 victory over LSU in Sunday night’s national semifinal. It was the lowest scoring game in Final Four history.
Candace Parker did all she could with her bum shoulder, scoring 13 points and grabbing 15 rebounds to lead the Lady Vols.
Tennessee (35-2) moved within a win of its eighth national championship.
