The Bears knew they had to lock in to their second-round matchup when the Lady Raiders trimmed a 15-point third-quarter lead to just two going into the fourth.

No. 5 seed Baylor women’s basketball proceeded to put the fourth-quarter clamps on No. 12 seed Texas Tech, as it ran away with a 71-60 victory in the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship on Friday afternoon in the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Mo.

“There for a moment — give credit to Tech — they did a really good job with their game plan,” associate coach Tari Cummings said on ESPN Central Texas 1660 AM radio.
