Montana native Joslyn was invigorated by the Rocky Mountain air. She started again for the fourth time this season, played for 32 minutes and led all scorers with 20 points, matching her career high. She began the scoring 1½ minutes into the game with a long-g-g three-pointer and followed that a minute later with a cut to the basket and two points. She sank another long one later in the first half and made all four of her free throws. She also grabbed three rebounds and was a strong, effective defender.
Chiney and Toni added 19 points each. Chiney also had nine rebounds and two assists. Toni had five rebounds, two assists and a steal.
Nneka subbed out early in the first half after she stepped on Chiney's foot and tweaked her ankle. But she got it re-taped, came back in six minutes later and played most of the rest of the game. She finished with 15 points, five rebounds and a steal.
The Cardinal defense held Chucky Jeffery, the Buffs' top scorer, to just two points on one of ten field goal attempts and Lexy Kresl, their second-best scorer, to three points on one of seven three-point attempts. Colorado had the lowest-scoring first half (15 points) in a home game in team history. Their final 54 points is the current team's second-lowest score of the season.
