Chloe Jackson’s driving layup with 3.9 seconds left Sunday night lifted top-seeded Baylor to an 82-81 win over defending champion Notre Dame for the NCAA Women’s National Championship at Amalie Arena in Tampa.
Jackson pumped in 26 points on 13-of-25 shooting for the Bears , which joined Connecticut and Tennessee as the only women’s programs to win at least three national titles. Baylor’s previous championships came in 2005 and 2012. Ogunbowale scored a game-high 31 points on 11-of-27 shooting, while Marina Mabrey added 21. Brianna Turner contributed 12 points, 12 rebounds and five assists, and Jessica Shepard chipped in 11 points and 10 rebounds.
Baylor put its stamp on the game right away, forcing a Notre Dame timeout just 3:46 into the game when Jackson canned a jumper for an 11-3 lead. Jackson capped a 10-point quarter with a driving layup as time expired for a 25-14 Bears lead.
