Ashleigh Fontenette scored eight of her 20 points in the two overtime periods, including a clutch 3-pointer, to help No. 14 Texas beat Kansas 85-82 on Saturday.

After LaChelda Jacobs made 1 of 2 free throws with 10 seconds left in the first overtime, Fontenette hit a 3-pointer with 1.6 seconds left to tie the game at 77 and force a second extra period.
