BOULDER, Colo. — Oklahoma State's women's basketball team's three-game winning streak came to an end Sunday afternoon as the Cowgirls fell to Colorado, 79-65, at the CU Events Center.

With the loss, OSU moves to 16-5 overall and 5-3 in conference play, while the Buffaloes improve to 13-7 and 4-4 in conference.

The first quarter started off with Achol Akot getting to layups, then it was all Colorado from there going on a 9-point run. Amari Whiting would answer with a few layups and end the quarter with a floater as time was winding down to make it 16-10 in favor of Colorado.

In the second, it was the Buffaloes at the start going on a 15-4 run to start and ending with three minutes to go in the first half. The Cowgirls would get a comeback going by going on their own 11-2 run to finish the half. Akot and Timmer headed the run combining for all the points in the final two and a half minutes.

The third quarter would be a back-and-forth with Colorado not losing their lead and going shot for shot with the Cowgirls. OSU would go on multiple small runs but could not cut into the Buffaloes lead. The third quarter would be capped off by a 10-2 run in favor of the Pokes.

In the fourth quarter, Akot and Timmer refused to let the game get out of hand. The pair combined for 15 points in the final period, with Timmer knocking down big shots and Akot battling inside through contact. A Timmer layup cut the deficit to seven with four minutes remaining, but Colorado answered with an 11-4 run to put the game away.

Akot finished with a team-high 22 points and nine rebounds before fouling out in the final minute, while Timmer added 17 points, including three shots from beyond the arc, as the duo accounted for more than half of OSU's scoring.

Oklahoma State will be back in action on Jan. 28 at 6:30 p.m. taking on BYU in Stillwater.
