TAMPA, Fla., April 7 (UPI) -- Alexis Hornbuckle's put-back shot with 0.7 seconds to play gave Tennessee a 47-46 win over LSU Sunday and another trip to the women's NCAA championship game.

Tennessee will play Stanford -- which beat Connecticut 82-73 in Sunday's other semifinal -- in the title game Tuesday night.

The Lady Vols trailed 46-45 with 7.1 seconds left after LSU's Erica White sank two free throws.

Tennessee charged back and Hornbuckle scored after Nicky Anosike missed a lay-in attempt.

Candace Parker scored 13 points and pulled in 15 rebounds for Tennessee (35-2). Shannon Bobbit added 11 points and Alberta Auguste 10.

Sylvia Fowles had 24 points and 20 rebounds for the Lady Tigers.

Defending champion Tennessee will be shooting for its eighth national championship.
