TCU sweeps Baylor women’s basketball to win Big 12 Regular Season Title<\/p>\n
The Horned Frogs got off to a good start and ended up with another lopsided victory over the Bears. Baylor had a big comeback in the second half \u2014 bringing TCU’s lead to single digits. TCU would pull away and was crowned the outright Big 12 regular season champions.<\/p>\n
“We did a lot of good things in the first half and so you know it certainly isn’t the feeling we want at the end of the day, but I thought we competed at a high level and turned it into a pretty good basketball game,” head coach Nicki Collen said.<\/p>\n
“It just sucks, but I mean, we’re not done. We still, we still have basketball left to play, so just got to build off this game,” Darianna Littlepage-Buggs said.<\/p>\n
The Bears end the regular season on a tough note. Baylor misses out on another conference title and this team’s time together is limited.<\/p>\n
“I’m trying not to be emotional because I know these guys are emotional. This is an awesome group of kids and I don’t want this season to end,” Collen said.<\/p>\n
“Ultimately I told them like we can be disappointed that no one in that locker room was more disappointed than I was or equally, but that we have a lot to play for and there’s another championship on the line,” Collen said.<\/p>\n
Five straight losses to the Horned Frogs, but the Bears are looking to turn this around as they prep for the conference tournament.<\/p>\n
“Disappointment is the biggest motivation. I think that we’re all disappointed at how the regular season ended and I think we’re coming in with a new vengeance. I think this team is hungry,” Taliah Scott said.<\/p>\n
Scott finished the game with 17 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists. Scott struggled throughout the game but turned it up in the fourth quarter by scoring 14. <\/p>\n
“The media is going to say whatever they say about us because whatever we lost two times to them, but I think we’re a team that can still be good teams and I think that we’re all, everybody in that locker room is ready to go and step up to whatever challenge we have next starting in the conference tournament,” Scott said.<\/p>\n
Baylor locks up the three seed for the Conference tournament as now the road to Kansas City begins.<\/p>\n
