Big 12 semifinal day
A date with the Baylor Bears on the line as Iowa State takes on Texas in the Big 12 Conference Tournament.
Very similar to their opener against West Virginia, Iowa State and their opponent started out the game trading baskets for baskets and stops for stops as both teams battled inside and out in a flurry of points in the first quarter. Texas started the game much better though striking early and often with a pair of 3-pointers, one each from Joanne Allen-Taylor and Shay Holle. The 1st quarter went back-and-forth between runs as the Cyclones closed it to 9-5 before Texas extended back to 16-9 and Iowa State answered right back closing it to 18-16 by the end of the final frame, capped off by a triple by Lexi Donarski.
