BIG PICTURE
Baylor: The Lady Bears are clicking despite one of their best players hampered by an injury. All-Big 12 guard Alexis Jones missed her fourth straight game with a knee injury. Baylor coach Kim Mulkey hasn't announced whether Jones will play before the NCAA Tournament.
Texas Tech: Until Saturday's fourth quarter, the Red Raiders rode a hot streak from beyond the 3-point line. Coupled with Friday's victory over TCU, Texas Tech went 16 for 35 from 3-point range at Chesapeake Energy Arena.
UP NEXT
Baylor: The Lady Bears face Kansas State, which topped Iowa State 74-67 earlier Saturday.
Texas Tech: The Lady Raiders' season is likely over after their third loss to the Bears in the last four weeks.
