UH women’s basketball exits Big 12 tourney with Texas Tech loss

The Houston women’s basketball team faced an early end to its Big 12 tournament run and 2023-24 season following a 74-60 loss to Texas Tech on Thursday.

Neither team found rhythm in the first period, with Houston shooting just 27% from the field and the Red Raiders an only marginally better 29% in the quarter en route to an 11-11 stalemate entering the period break.

Texas Tech was the team to build the first formidable lead of the Big 12 Tournament First Round matchup, coming out of the gate in the second period with an 8-0 run to lead 19-11.
