Spartans Struggle in Second Half in Loss to #13 WashU

The Case Western Reserve University women's basketball team led in the second half against a nationally-ranked opponent for the second-straight game, but ultimately could not hold on for the win in a 66-52 loss to the 13th-ranked Washington University (Mo.)
