Rice responds on a 7-0 run of it's own to take a 57 - 48 lead at 1:07

Crosthwaite has provided a much needed scoring punch. But that's two pointblank misses. Could hurt us.

Rice up by 6, 57 - 51 heading into the 4Q. Tech is taking advantage at the FT line with 11 - 12 shooting to keep them in the game. Mulkey's offensive game has been totally taken away. She's only 1-5 from the field.

We need a strong defensive effort this final quarter.

She's been ice cold since halfway through the 1Q.

Swayze starts the quarter with a couple buckets and Rice lead up to 11.

Crosthwait picks up her 4th personal with 8 minutes left. Smith, Schwartz and Jackson all have 3.

One of the interesting things about this game is the relative quietness of Rice's bench. TTU's seems so much louder and raucous. I feel like in past years we've had more energy.

Swayze with 8 of Rice's 10 points this quarter. Rice up 67 - 54 at 6:00

Just a mega second half from Swayze. Big shot after big shot.

Now we’re taking control.

Smith picks up her 4th personal with 5:31 to go. Schwartz and Swayze pretty much the Rice offense right now.

Up by 21!

Schwartz with a very strong second half. By far her best game of the season after being virtually invisible the first 2 1/2 games. Tina had her only playing 6 minutes the first half tonight.

Good gracious what a second half from Rice. Would've been so easy to get run out of the gym after that huge TTU run.

Since Tech’s 21-4 run to pull within two, it’s been 27-6 run for Rice.

Also strong offensive games from Wiggins and Jackson. Synde has played every minute so far with 3:00 to go.

Just a total clamp down 4Q. Tech didn't score it's first point of the quarter until it was half over.

Best day of Rice athletics in quite some time.

Very nice win for the Owls. No panic when TT made their runs.

Congrats Owls!
