Prahalis leads No. 3 Ohio State past West Virginia
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — No. 3 Ohio State dominated the first 4 minutes and West Virginia never came close to recovering over the last 36.
Samantha Prahalis had 14 points and 12 assists, and the Buckeyes scored the first 17 points to roll past the Mountaineers 92-69 Thursday night in the semifinals of the Preseason WNIT.
"I told the team that's why they're No. 3 in the country and we're not ranked," West Virginia coach Mike Carey said. "We have to learn how to play that hard and that aggressive. We came out standing around and they came out attacking; we came out being attacked."
The Buckeyes (3-0) will host Oklahoma State on Sunday in the Preseason WNIT championship game, also at their own Value City Arena.
Prahalis, the diminutive but lightning-fast sophomore point guard, also had five rebounds and a steal.
"We definitely were clicking," she said about the Buckeyes' play in transition.
