Cougars, who battled all season, didn’t have enough to overcome a tough Wildcats team...
Houston guard Taze Moore takes the ball to the basket against Villanova guard Justin Moore during the first half of an NCAA South Region men's basketball final Saturday, March 26, 2022 in San Antonio.SAN ANTONIO — After everything that Kelvin Sampson’s University of Houston team overcame this season, they almost overcame this.
All the red. All the hype. All the noise throughout the first half, even as a flat UH squad fell behind by 11 points and was fortunate to only trail by seven at the break. The Cougars’ offense was Jamal Shead and Moore, and that was it. Kyler Edwards and Fabian White Jr. combined for two quiet points, while UH shot 8 of 26 overall and 0 of 8 on 3s. Factor in the odd sight of seeing Sampson’s team losing the board battle and the best part of the Coogs’ first half was a home-away-from-home crowd that kept trying to wake up its team.
