K-State rides defense, bench to win over Texas Tech

Sometimes before games, Kansas State women’s basketball coach Jeff Mittie can relax. But he was concerned heading into Saturday night’s game.
Turns out, he didn’t need to be. K-State beat Texas Tech, 58-54, thanks to strong defense and good performances from Eternati Willock and Kaylee Page off the bench.

“Our bench played great tonight,” Mittie said. “They gave us a lot of energy in every area, really, not just in scoring, but in rebounding … we only had one turnover from the bench tonight, and that’s big. People get caught up in scoring off the bench, but there’s a lot of ways to contribute.
