The Lady Mocs could not get past Kansas State in Round One of the NCAA tournament Sunday.
The 24-game winning streak by the UTC Lady Mocs came to a halt in the first round of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday at Bridgeport, Conn. UTC lost 79-69 to Kansas State.

The Lady Mocs were up 22-18 after Brooke Hand hit three straight three pointers.

UTC trailed by only a point at the half, and then got a six-point advantage early in the second half.

Kansas State pulled away down the stretch, connecting on their free throws.

Laura Hall and Hand led the Lady Mocs.

Kansas State was playing without All-American candidate Kimberly Dietz, who suffered a season-ending ACL injury.

But little-used reserve Kelsey Nelson stepped in and scored a career-high 20 points.

Alex Anderson was held to only nine points.

UTC last lost Dec. 1 to Alabama A&M. Only other defeats were to Tennessee and Louisville.
