LUBBOCK, Texas \u2013 Kaitlyn Giametta<\/a> buried a penalty kick, and Taylor Zdrojewski<\/a> scored a key insurance goal to power No. 25 Texas Tech to a dominant 2-0 win at the John Walker Soccer Complex in front of another sold out crowd of 2024.<\/p>\n

After a slow start, it was Texas Tech (5-0-4, 1-0-1 Big 12) who struck first, when a streaking Emma Torres<\/a> was dragged down in the box for what turned out to be the first PK attempt of the season for the Red Raiders.<\/p>\n

Showing the poise of a sixth year, Giametta slipped a ball past Cincinnati (2-3-4, 0-1-1 Big 12) goalkeeper Amber Brandon for her third goal of the season.<\/p>\n

Up 1-0, Tech quickly put the game to bed in the 55th minute, when Kylie Bahr<\/a> turned the corner and slipped a dangerous ball that found Torres deep in the Bearcats box. Seeing a streaking Zdrojewski, Torres slotted a beautiful ball that “Z” was able to get on the other end of for her sixth goal of the season and 32nd for her career.<\/p>\n

Armed with a two-goal lead, Tech closed out its 50th win since the start of the 2023 season, improving to 50-9-16 (.773) over that span. The Red Raiders trail just Stanford (62), Florida State (57) and UNC (55) for the most victories in the country.<\/p>\n

The Red Raiders outshot the Bearcats\u00a016-6 as GK Addie Todd<\/a> made two saves to earn her fifth clean sheet of the season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With the two-goal performance, the Red Raiders improve to 51-0-2 since the 2022 season when finding the back of the net twice and are now 60-2-2 since 2022 when hitting the two-goal mark.<\/p>\n

The win also improves the Red Raiders to 29-3-11 (.802) in Big 12 play since the start of the 2023 season that mark is sixth-most nationally and trails just TCU (30) for most wins. The Horned Frogs were 1-0 winners in Salt Lake City tonight.<\/p>\n

The Red Raiders also ran their unbeaten streak to 14 overall (7-0-7) dating back to a 3-0 loss (Oct. 23) to No. 22\/7 Colorado and are now 20-0-7 when scoring at least once. Tech is also 12-0-4 at home since a 2024 loss to BYU and are 14-0-5 in their last 19 matches in Texas.<\/p>\n

Since the installation of the natural grass surface, the Red Raiders are now 31-2-6 (.872) at Ft. Walker.<\/p>\n

\nThe Red Raiders continue the season-long three-match homestand on Sunday afternoon against No. 13\/8 Colorado.
