For the first time in 20 years, the Colorado Buffaloes have the reached the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament. The 6th-seeded Buffs upset the 3rd-seeded Duke Blue Devils in overtime, 61-53, in a physical matchup that JR Payne’s team is built to win.
The Buffs’ frenetic play must have shocked the Blue Devils, as they raced out to a 15-2 lead after the first five minutes. Quay Miller got going early on, scoring 9 of those 15 points and assisting Aaronette Vonleh for another deuce. It seems that she’s fully back to herself after slumping the last few weeks.
