A major contender in the NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Tournament fell in the second round Sunday afternoon.

Ohio State, a No. 2 seed, fell to seventh-seeded Duke 75-63, ending a Buckeyes season that looked like it had more to accomplish.

Ohio State led at halftime, but a second-half surge from the Blue Devils led it to the upset victory.

Reigan Richardson led the charge for Duke, scoring 28 points with seven rebounds. Ashlon Jackson chipped in 13 points, four rebounds and three assists and Taina Mair had 11 points, three rebounds and four assists.
