KNOXVILLE, TENN. ? Jody Conradt and the Texas Longhorns proved there’s more than one orange team at the top.

Nina Norman scored 18 points, and Conradt tied Tennessee’s Pat Summitt for the most career coaching victories in women’s basketball as the fifth-ranked Longhorns beat the No. 2 Vols, 70-60, Sunday.

Jamie Carey added 14 points for the Longhorns (11-1), who struggled to a two-point lead at halftime but never relinquished the lead in the second half en route to their third straight win over previously unbeaten Tennessee (7-1).

Conradt tied Summitt with 828 wins.

While both teams reached the national semifinals last season, the Longhorns’ tradition tends to get less notice. Another win in Knoxville should raise Texas’ profile.

“I think the mind-set of our players was that this was a respect game, and we have to go prove that we deserve that kind of respect,” Conradt said.

Tennessee returned to Knoxville after three tough road wins, including two in overtime, but a comeback wasn’t possible against the Longhorns.

“I think we just played one of the best teams in the country,” Summitt said.

Texas opened the second half with a 9-4 run and extended its lead to eight points before Tennessee started to rally.

The Vols, who started the second half shooting 3-of-13 from the floor, had a 9-2 run midway through the half, keyed by Shanna Zolman’s three-pointer.

No. 13 Colorado 71,

Wyoming 39
