Fair returns from injury to lead No. 6 seed Syracuse to a 74-69 opening-round win over Arizona

Associated Press  

STORRS, Conn. — It looked really bad for Syracuse when star Dyaisha Fair was being carried off the court at the end of the third quarter, unable to put any pressure on her legs. Fair scored 32 points, including her team’s final 13 to lead the Orange to a 74-69 come-from behind win over No. “You know that’s a fourth-quarter kid.” Fair’s personal game-winning run began with the Orange trailing 66-61 with 3:16 left. I just prayed that it wasn’t serious.” Kennedi Perkins jump shot to open the fourth quarter gave the Orange their first lead at 53-51. An offensive foul on Arizona’s Jones gave the ball to Syracuse, and the Orange never gave back the lead, BIG PICTURE Arizona: The Wildcats earned the right to play in this game by beating Auburn in a First Four matchup on Thursday.
