\nMcKinna Brackens<\/a> scored seven points to go with four rebounds.
\nMarley Washenitz<\/a> pulled down six rebounds and had five assists. In both categories, Washenitz was one short of matching her season high.
\nMartina Fantini<\/a> was the team\u2019s top producer off the bench with six points, two rebounds and two steals.<\/p>\n
\nAlthough ASU (34 rebounds) had two fewer rebounds than TCU (36 rebounds), the Sun Devils had a big advantage on the offensive glass (12-4) and had twice as many second chance points as TCU (8-4).
\nBoth teams had 17 turnovers, but ASU was able to have more success with turning miscues into offense as it was plus-five in points off turnovers (15-10).
\nEven though the Horned Frogs, who extended their winning streak at home to 36 games, were not as accurate from long range (36 percent), they made seven more 3-pointers than the Sun Devils (9-2).
\nThe first quarter provided no indicator of the eventual outcome as the Sun Devils played the Horned Frogs on even terms. After the first 10 minutes, TCU held the slightest of leads, 14-13.
\nIn the second quarter, TCU made 75 percent of its shots (9-12 FGs), including all three triples it attempted, and outscored the Sun Devils 21-7.
\nTrailing 35-20 at the half, ASU could not get within single digits at any point in the second half.<\/p>\n
