CINCINNATI -- Randy Foye had 25 points and Dante Cunningham scored off an inbounds play with 3.2 seconds remaining, as Villanova won its 11th straight. The Wildcats (22-2, 12-1) wasted a 12-point lead down the stretch before pulling out a win that kept them in control of the Big East.
WOMEN
No. 3 LSU 86, Alabama 61
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Seimone Augustus scored 32 points and Sylvia Fowles had 28 points and 13 rebounds as LSU clinched at least a share of the Southeastern Conference title. The duo of Augustus and Fowles took turns dominating the game for LSU (24-2, 12-1), which led by only six at halftime. Augustus scored 20 points in the first half and Fowles had 22 after that to help LSU pull away. Lauren Hill led Alabama (9-17, 3-10) with 17 points, while Navonda Moore had 13 and Harriet Barnes 10.
No. 4 Maryland 89, Clemson 63
COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- Crystal Langhorne scored 16 points to reach the 1,000 mark quicker than any player in Maryland history, and the Terrapins extended Clemson's losing streak to nine. Maryland (25-3, 12-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) never trailed in cruising to its school-record 14th home win of the season. Amanda Frist scored 16 points and D'Lesha Lloyd added 12 for Clemson (8-19, 2-11). The last-place Tigers haven't won since Jan. 15 and are 0-6 on the road in the ACC.
No. 5 Tennessee 81, Auburn 56
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tye'sha Fluker scored a career-high 22 points and Sidney Spencer added 18 to help Tennessee beat Auburn. The Lady Vols (25-3, 11-2 Southeastern Conference) built a big lead in the first half and never relinquished it on their way to a 13th straight victory over Auburn.
No. 13 Georgia 86, Arkansas 80
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Sherill Baker scored 28 points and Tasha Humphrey had 23 in the second half to lead Georgia past Arkansas. Humphrey finished with 25 for the Lady Bulldogs (19-7, 9-4 SEC). Arkansas (13-13, 5-8) played nothing like a team that's lost seven straight SEC games after a 5-1 start. Whitney Jones scored 21 points for the Lady Razorbacks, one short of her career high.
No. 14 Michigan State 68, Michigan 42
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Liz Shimek had 22 points, moving into second place on Michigan State's career scoring mark. Lindsay Bowen scored 11 points, remaining No. 1 on the scoring list, for the Spartans (21-8, 11-5 Big Ten), who finished the regular season with no worse than a third-place tie in the league. Entering the Big Ten tournament next week, Bowen has 1,685 career points -- three ahead of Shimek. Janelle Cooper had 18 points for the Wolverines (6-21, 0-15).
No. 22 Minnesota 65, Indiana 58
MINNEAPOLIS -- Jamie Broback scored 20 points to help Minnesota break a four-game losing streak and earn a first-round bye in the Big Ten tournament.

Indiana (15-11 9-6) was trying to win its fourth consecutive Big Ten game for the first time since the 1985-86 season. Calhoun scored 12 points for Minnesota (18-8, 10-5). Nikki Smith led Indiana with 15 points.
