McCray’s career day helps KU snap streak in 2OT
Maybe more than any of KU’s other six freshmen, Danielle McCray wanted the streak to come to an end. McCray, an Olathe East product who committed to Bonnie Henrickson as a junior, watched plenty of those consecutive letdowns and also still had the memory of missing a close-range shot which would have tied Kansas State at the end of regulation in a 59-55 road loss on Jan. 24. That extended the Wildcats’ dominance in the series to 12 straight games. Behind a career-high 25 points, and a lifetime-best six three-pointers, McCray paced the Jayhawks to an 82-74 double overtime win over the ‘Cats Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse, ending the streak right around when she had expected to.
