No. 10 TCU scored its fewest points of the season, but a last-second shot helped the Horned Frogs escape Morgantown with a 51-50 win over unranked West Virginia on Wednesday at WVU Coliseum.
Despite a tough shooting night from Marta Suárez, the Spaniard came up huge to let the Horned Frogs (17-1, 5-1 Big 12) avoid an upset, popping to the top of the key off an inbounds play with 2.8 seconds left. She took a jab step before knocking down the winning 3-pointer in the face of a defender for West Virginia (14-4, 4-2).
It was her only 3 of the game after five misses. She shot 4-for-19 overall.
The win was a big one for the Horned Frogs in the Big 12 standings with Texas Tech (19-0, 6-0) still undefeated.
Here are three takeaways from the Horned Frogs’ last-second win:
Olivia Miles leads the way in scoring
In a game where the Horned Frogs had their most turnovers of the season and their fewest assists, they relied on point guard Olivia Miles to lead the way. She had 14 points on 5-for-12 shooting, but went without a shot attempt for the first half of the final quarter.
The Mountaineers worked hard to take away Miles’ effectiveness as a scorer, and she went 0-for-1 with only one assist in the final quarter.
Turnovers haunt Horned Frogs’ offense
TCU entered the game averaging the second-fewest turnovers in the Big 12 (14.0), but against a Mountaineers squad that forces the most turnovers in the league, the Horned Frogs struggled to take care of the ball, matching their season average by the end of the first half.
The Horned Frogs’ turnovers came in myriad ways: multiple illegal screens, errant passes and offensive fouls. West Virginia used those turnovers to keep the game close despite an abysmal 28.3% shooting day.
The Horned Frogs ended the game with almost six times as many turnovers (24) as assists (five).
Marta Suárez plays hero after struggles
After scoring 20 points in three of four games, Suarez, a graduate transfer from Cal, has struggled over the past three games as defenses have keyed in on her to try and slow her down. She scored 11 points Wednesday after scoring four against Arizona State on Sunday and 11 against Oklahoma State on Jan. 7.
As teams have focused on Suárez, other players have been able to take advantage, but that was not the case on Wednesday.
Despite her struggles from the field, Suárez continued to stay aggressive but still couldn't find the net consistently. She also found herself in foul trouble, with four midway through the third quarter.
After re-entering the game in the fourth quarter, she went scoreless on her first four shot attempts — until her game-winning 3-pointer.
TCU will continue its Big 12 schedule against Arizona (10-6, 1-4) at 4 p.m. Saturday at Schollmaier Arena.
