BOULDER, Colo. (AP) -- Brittany Spears scored 24 points and Chucky Jeffery added 12 points and 10 rebounds to lead Colorado to a 73-68 win over No. 16 Oklahoma on Wednesday night.
The victory snapped the Buffaloes' (13-13, 4-9 Big 12) eight-game losing streak to the Sooners (19-8, 9-4).
Oklahoma senior Danielle Robinson finished with 21 points and her layup with 28 seconds to go gave her 2,000 points for her career. It also brought the Sooners within 68-66, but Colorado converted from the line down the stretch to seal the victory.
Colorado was 18-for-20 from the free throw line.
The Buffaloes trailed for most of the first half until a 13-2 spurt to close the period gave them a 39-33 lead at the break.
Colorado hadn't beaten Oklahoma since the 2003 Big 12 tournament. First year coach Linda Lappe was a senior on that team.
