Huskies survive in double overtime and advance to face Pacific on Sunday

Jazmine Davis learned how to shoot from her father, Oliver. When she was a child, dad worked with daughter tirelessly on her form, making sure her elbow was lined up just right with her front foot. He’s said she has a “damn good jump shot,” but still thinks she could get a little more arc on it.

With the Huskies already down 17 points against No. 6 California on Saturday afternoon, Cal’s 6-foot-2 Gennifer Brandon drove into the lane and weaved around 5-foot-7 Jazmine Davis like a snake through the grass. Brandon lofted a floater over Davis, who stood rooted to the court at Hec Edmundson Pavilion with her arms extended to the rafters, helpless.
