DALLAS — RV\/No. 17 Texas Tech struck first on a Storie Sexton<\/a> goal, before allowing a 73rd minute equalizer in Thursday’s 1-1 draw against SMU at Washburne Stadium in Dallas. <\/p>\n

Playing at its former Southwest Conference for the first time since 2008, Texas Tech (2-0-3) was unable to close out its 13th-straight win following a loss or draw. The Red Raiders did however extend their unbeaten streak to 10 (4-0-6) since a 3-0 loss at Colorado last Oct. 23. Tech also extended its in-state unbeaten streak to 16 (11-0-5) since a 2-1 loss against BYU back in 2024. <\/p>\n

Up 1-0 at the break after a perfect ball from versatile winger, Alana Harry<\/a> connected with Sexton, the Red Raiders were less than 20 minutes away from a pivotal win before seeing SMU (4-1-2) equalize on a 73rd minute strike from Julianne Richter. <\/p>\n

After a back-and-forth start saw the teams take 10 of the matches 16 corners, it was the 39th-minute dime from Harry to Sexton on the doorstep that gave Tech the lead. Showing the poise of a senior, Sexton walked the ball home for her third career goal and second of her senior campaign.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

Following the intermission, the Red Raiders managed just a pair of shots on Kylie Bahr<\/a> headers in the 86th and 89th minutes. The final shot from Bahr was a rising header that narrowly missed clipping the top of the goal before sailing over for an SMU goal kick. <\/p>\n

In the second-straight draw, Tech goalkeeper Addie Todd<\/a> made five key stops to preserve the result for her Red Raider side. <\/p>\n

After tallying 10 shots in the first half, the Red Raiders were outshot 17-12 as the two sides each attempted eight corners. <\/p>\n

UP NEXT:

\nThe Red Raiders will begin a two-match homestand to close out non-conference play on Sunday night when San Diego State comes to Lubbock. First touch from the John Walker Soccer Complex is set for 7 p.m.
