PITTSBURGH -- Shavonte Zellous scored 29 points to help Pittsburgh beat No. 13 West Virginia 77-75 in overtime Tuesday night, ending a four-game losing streak for the Panthers.

LaQuita Owens missed a potential game-winning 3-pointer at the buzzer of overtime. Chakhia Cole tied the game with 9.9 seconds left in regulation and Pittsburgh (19-8, 9-5 Big East) had a chance for one last shot, but Mallorie Winn's 3-pointer missed.

Zellous, who missed the Panthers' loss to Marquette on Saturday night with a concussion, was 9-for-14 from the field.

Meg Bulger and Olayinka Sanni led the Mountaineers (22-5, 11-3) with 19 points each. Cole added 14.

West Virginia beat Pittsburgh 56-35 on Feb. 13.
