South had eight tricks and was sure to be able to ruff a

ace, South would have claimed. Baskan, however, brilliantly
played low! South was already convinced, from the opening
lead, that East held the ace of clubs. He played low from
dummy, hoping East started with no more than three cards
in the suit. If that were the case, the ace would fall when
South ruffed the third round. West’s eight of clubs held the
trick and he shifted to a heart. There was no longer a way for
declarer to prevail. Lovely defense!

Wisconsin got stuck in the slippery turf at Chase Field

Cedrick Dort ended Oklahoma State’s momentum by

The Cowboys lost four of five to close out the regu-
