LAST TIME OUT
In the league's second overtime game of the day, the No. 22 Iowa State Cyclones squeaked past the Baylor women's basketball team, 81-77, in front of the second-largest crowd at the Ferrell Center this season in the team's annual Play4Kay game on Saturday. The overtime outing marked the second time this season, and just the third time in the Nicki Collen era, that a game needed more than 40 minutes.
 
The dynamic rookie duo of Darianna Littlepage-Buggs and Bella Fontleroy led the offensive charge for the Bears, finishing with 19 points apiece. In limited minutes due to foul trouble, Caitlin Bickle added 13 with a perfect 6-for-6 showing at the charity stripe. Senior Jaden Owens accounted for 10 of Baylor's 16 assists, leading the Bears in the category for the 17th time this season. Additionally, she grabbed a career-high seven rebounds and tallied a game-high four steals.
 
TRIPLE THREAT
Caitlin Bickle (13 pts, 12 reb), Darianna Littlepage-Buggs (19 pts, 12 reb) and Bella Fontleroy (19 pts, 11 reb) became the first Baylor trio since Nina Davis, Kalani Brown and Kristy Wallace in 2017 to post double-doubles in the same game on Saturday night.
 
Additionally, it marked the first time three Bears finished in double figures on the glass since Brown, NaLyssa Smith and Queen Egbo in 2019.
 
SCOUTING TCU AND THE SERIES
Baylor is an astounding 46-5 all-time against TCU and hasn't lost a game to the Horned Frogs since Feb. 28, 1990. In the conference opener on Dec. 31, the Bears stormed past TCU, 64-42 in Waco. Three players reached double figures led by Caitlin Bickle's 19-point performance, which at the time, was a season high for the forward.
 
TCU enters Wednesday's contest with a 7-18 overall record and 1-13 mark in Big 12 play after picking up its first conference win of the year against Kansas State on Saturday. The Horned Frogs used a 21-point, 10-rebound performance by Lucy Ibeh to take down the Wildcats, 75-62. A total of 12 players
saw the court for TCU in the win.
 
On the year, the Horned Frogs are led offensively by Ibeh (10.7) and Tomi Taiwo (14.3), who are each averaging double figures, while Bella Cravens leads TCU on the boards at 6.0 rebounds per game.
