TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) Utah rallied from an 11-point deficit to start the fourth quarter and handed the No. 22 Arizona State Sun Devils their first home loss of the season 58-56 on Friday.

It was the third straight loss for the Sun Devils (13-6, 4-3 Pac-12).

Megan Huff had 16 points and 14 rebounds for the Utes (13-5, 4-3), who outscored the Sun Devils 26-13 in the final quarter. Torri Williams added 10 points, including four free throws in the final 18.4 seconds.

Robbi Ryan scored 16 for Arizona State but missed what would have been a game-tying 3-pointer in the final seconds. Williams' two free throws with 2.6 seconds left sealed the victory.

It was the second down-to-the-wire matchup between the two teams this season. Arizona State won at Utah 83-81 on Dec. 31.
