BOULDER, Colo. (AP) _ Tera Bjorklund had 18 points and 16 rebounds for her fourth double-double of the season to lead No. 13 Colorado to a 72-57 victory over Oklahoma State on Saturday.
Oklahoma State's Nina Stone fell on a drive to the basket in the first half and had to be taken off the court on a stretcher. She scored 12 points in the first 14 minutes before being injured. X-rays on Stone's neck were negative.
Randie Wirt and Kate Fagan each scored 16 points and Veronica Johns-Richardson added 12 for Colorado (20-5, 9-4 Big 12), which had lost two in a row.
Trisha Skibbe scored 19 points to lead the Cowgirls (8-17, 3-11).
The teams were tied 37-all at the half and at 52 with 8:54 to play before the Buffs went on an 11-0 run, capitalizing on three Oklahoma State turnovers to put the game out of reach.
