THEY SAID IT
Baylor senior Livia Kraus on starting Big 12 play with a win…
"We were all very excited to come out and compete today, especially since it was our first Big 12 match since the COVID-19 pandemic started. We were a little nervous, but we were also very excited. We wanted to give our best, fight very hard and leave it all out on the court today. I saw all the girls on all courts leave it all out there. We are very proud of ourselves. Now we are going to get ready tomorrow for West Virginia on Sunday. Hopefully we can continue playing the way we are."
