Women's college basketball players score on wrong baskets in separate games

Two separate Division I women's college basketball games on Friday featured players accidentally scoring in their own baskets.

In a matchup between Arkansas and Northwestern State, guard Karma Wynn received a pass under her own basket and drove for a layup into the incorrect hoop. The error contributed to an 89-59 victory for Arkansas.

In a later game between New Mexico State and Southern Utah, Emma Christiano stole an inbounds pass with 20 seconds remaining in regulation. Christiano drove to her own basket for a layup, which briefly gave Southern Utah a 63-60 lead. Despite the mistake, New Mexico State secured a 64-63 win after Stacy Chovino scored two late baskets.
