No. 21 Baylor women’s basketball stomps Texas Tech 61-32 in Brittney Griner’s return

Even Brittney Griner’s courtside presence had an infectious impact on No. 21 Baylor women’s basketball’s defense.

The Bears recorded 13 steals, six blocks and forced 29 turnovers en route to a 61-32 beatdown of Texas Tech on Sunday evening in the Foster Pavilion. The Lady Raiders’ 32 points equaled their lowest-scoring output in program history.

It was also the fourth-fewest points scored by a Big 12 program during league play in conference history.

“Our key to the game was energy [and] effort,” Baylor head coach Nicki Collen said.
