DALLAS (AP) – Imani McGee-Stafford had 11 points and 10 rebounds as Texas advanced to its first Big 12 tournament championship game since 2004 with a 59-46 win over Oklahoma on Sunday.
McGee-Stafford’s layup with 5:15 left wrapped up a 14-0 run that put the Longhorns (22-9) up by 10 points.
Brady Sanders also had 11 points for preseason Big 12 favorite Texas, which plays in the title game Monday night against regular season champion Baylor. The Lady Bears are going for their fifth consecutive tournament championship.
