9-0 Rice.

18-11 but Rice has now missed 5 straight bunnies, 4 of them from Mulkey. She struggles the most when she panics. Basically nobody can block her shot, so she always has time to take a breath.

Those last couple of possessions in the 1Q for the Owls hurt. Should be a double digit lead, but good 1Q on the road nonetheless.

Commentator confirms that Maya had torn her ACL.

Texas Tech starting to get it going. Lead down to 2.

25-22 Rice. Tech has been the better team the last few minutes.

Good response by the team. 33-24 Rice after back-to-back 3s by Jackson and Swayze.

Love how aggressive we are jumping the passing lanes. 39-27 Rice at the half. Easily the best half of the (short) season.

Owls up 12 at the half. Great response!

This has been the most frustrating aspect of Nancy's game. For no reason, she always rushes her shot under the basket. A headscratcher why she has not improved in this regard over the past 3 seasons.

Nice run at the end of the half to go up by 12, but aside from Wiggins, Jackson and Crosthwait we're not shooting well at all....and 1-6 from the charity stripe is simply inexcusable.

Best defensive effort this year so far.

Tech is doing a good job making Mulkey defend the perimeter. Tech's 5 is too quick for her. But back-to-back 3s by Schwartz and it's an 18 point Rice lead. 45-27

Looks like someone woke up Lauren Schwartz at halftime. She's come out on fire for the first time this season.

46 - 27 Rice at 8:05

Friendly refs are starting to call fouls every time Rice is on D.

Free throws:
Tech 9-10
Rice 2-8

Tech on a 10-2 run, with a couple 3s. Lead down to 10 at 50 - 40.

Now down to 8. What happened to our defense?

Holy moly we need to lock the team in the gym and not let them out until they all make 1000 uncontested layups. We might end up getting blown out here. 50-48 Rice.

Tech now on a 17-2 run and has cut the lead to just 2 points. Total collapse on both ends of the court.

And 1! 4 fouls on guerlich
