The Buckeyes led for all but 49 seconds of Sunday's game against Michigan State, but the Spartans kept things close until the game's final minute.
In every game Ohio State has played so far this season, there's been a clear moment where the Buckeyes broke the game open, a string of possessions where they built so much momentum they were impossible to stop.game-breaking runs
"We showed really good competitive character," coach Kevin McGuff said."We stayed together. We found a way to win. I was also really proud, they were beating us up on the boards early and we ended up plus-two, so we kept fighting and scratching and just doing what we had to to find a way to win. The same storyline played out in the third quarter. Michigan State went on a 9-0 run midway through the quarter and another 6-0 run late in the period, while Ohio State continued to turn the ball over and never looked fluid at the offensive end.
But Michigan State only made one more basket from there, and Ohio State was able to pull away just enough. One free throw from Madison Greene, four from Mikesell and a final, exclamation-point layup from Taylor Thierry just before the final buzzer secured the win for the Buckeyes. The layup gave Thierry a new career high with 21 points and improved her nation-leading field goal percentage to 72.1%.
