MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Freshman Syla Swords scored 23 points, eight in the fourth quarter, and No. 24 Michigan edged No. 23 Minnesota 70-65 on Wednesday night. Olivia Olson, a freshman from New Hope, Minnesota, added 19 points for the Wolverines (14-4, 5-3 Big Ten Conference), including a jumper to open the fourth quarter that gave them a 55-53 lead.

Swords scores 23, Olson adds 19 as freshmen lead No. 24 Michigan women past No. 23 Minnesota 70-65

The Gophers have, to this point, taken care of business against the teams they are supposed to beat. They haven’t, to this point, beaten top competition. Minnesota headed into Wednesday’s contest with just two losses — one to then No. 25 Nebraska and the other just last week to No. 8 Maryland. It was handed its third defeat of the season on Wednesday — and it came in its third game against a ranked opponent. No. 24 Michigan walked away with a cl…

Amaya Battle’s big night not enough in Gophers’ 70-65 loss to Michigan

MINNEAPOLIS — On paper, the No. 24 Michigan women’s basketball team and No. 23 Minnesota are nearly identical. The Wolverines average 77 points a game, the Golden Gophers average 76. The two teams shoot 2% apart from deep, and less than a single percentage point separates their field goal efficiency. The rankings, of course, speak for themselves.  But instead of a game that was neck-and-neck from tipoff to the final buzzer, Wednesday night’s gam…
