AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -- Caton Hill scored 20 points, including the go-ahead layup with 1:26 to play to give No. 25 Oklahoma a 76-73 victory over Texas on Wednesday night. The teams exchanged leads seven times in the final six minutes of the game. Texas (11-6, 3-2 Big 12) took a 73-72 lead with 3:11 to play on Alisha Sare's fourth straight 3-pointer, but didn't score again. Given the lead on Hill's basket, Oklahoma (14-3, 4-0) stretched its defense and forced a shot clock violation. Oklahoma's Stacey Dales missed two foul shots with 13 seconds left, but drew a charging foul. The Sooners' LaNeishea Caufield was fouled on the inbounds pass and made two free throws with six seconds remaining. Phylesha Whaley and Jadrea Seeley each scored 15 points for Oklahoma, which survived 26 turnovers. Edwina Brown scored 22 to lead Texas, but was left holding the ball when the Longhorns ran out of time on the 30-second clock in the final minute. She also lobbed a cross court pass on Texas' last possession that was intercepted by Dales. Sare, who scored 12 straight for the Longhorns with the 3-point outburst in the second half, finished with 20 points.
