LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) – Texas Tech Athletics is inviting the public to sendoff the Lady Raiders at 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday at the Womble Basketball Center.
Parking will be available at the C15 lot that is west of the basketball center.
After closing out the regular season with a 58-51 win against Arizona State, the Texas Tech Lady Raiders (25-6, 12-6 Big 12) are on their way to the Big 12 Women’s Basketball tournament as the No. 5 seed, and as the nation’s No. 21 team.
This ranking is one spot down from the previous week, and Wednesday night’s 68-59 loss at Kansas factored in.
Other Big 12 schools include:
10. TCU (27-4, 15-3), 15. West Virginia (24-6, 14-4), and Baylor (24-7, 13-5).
Iowa State (22-8, 10-8) and Oklahoma State (23-8, 12-6) are also receiving votes.
The top five includes:
UConn (31-0), 2. UCLA (28-1), 3. South Carolina (29-2), 4. Texas (28-3) and 5. Vanderbilt (27-3).
Fifth-seeded Tech will await the Cincinnati-Kansas State winner 11 a.m. Thursday. The Bearcats and Wildcats will tip-off 11 a.m. Wednesday.
Both of the 2026 Big 12 Tournaments are held at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Mo.
Just like that, the #Big12WBB regular season comes to a close… but the best is yet to come.
