&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Owens came to Baylor after one year with UCLA as a backup point guard. In her freshman season with the Bruins in 2019-20, she averaged 9.6 minutes per contest in 28 games off the bench. She averaged 2.5 points, 1.2 assists and 0.6 steals per contest. Her
 assist-to-turnover ratio was 1.8:1, and she backed up All-Pac-12 point guard and recent WNBA draft pick Japreece Dean. Owens debuted Dec. 18 vs. Northwestern State hitting her first attempt from the field, a 3-pointer, and she finished with 3 points and 2
 assists before she collected a career-high eight assists in Baylor's win vs. McNeese State, Dec. 19.<br>

Richards' rehab began immediately after she briefly lost feeling below her knees. Richards was first confined to a walker to assist her in walking, but by mid-November she was completing individual drills and workouts with medical and strength &amp; conditioning
 staff. Richards shocked doctors, team medical staff and coaches with the rate of her rehab. Thirty-eight days after the injury, she played 30 minutes off the bench at South Florida Dec. 1. She scored a bucket 13 seconds into her entry, and picked up where
 she left off last season by leading Baylor with seven assists. Dec. 6 in<br>
Fayetteville, Ark., she resumed her starting role, getting her first start at point guard and finished the contest with a game-high eight assists. She led the Big 12 in assists per game in 2019-20, ranked 13th in the nation and had the NCAA's sixth-best assist-to-turnover
 ratio at 2.9:1.<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Her return to the floor sparked interest from ESPN with Mechelle Voepel writing a feature on her recovery, and Scott Van Pelt led off his Tuesday edition of SportsCenter, covering Richards' return with the &quot;Best Thing I Saw Today&quot; segment.<br>
