all 18 of her points in the fourth quarter as Baylor coasted to its second win over TCU this season, Tuesday. Ursin has been an incredible story for the Lady Bears, averaging just 4.0 points per contest for her career coming into her senior season. She had
just five starts prior to starting in all of Baylor's games this season, and she's averaging career bests with 11.5 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists. In the last five games she's averaged 17.6, 8.0 and 3.6, respectively. Smith has 11-straight games with
double-figure scoring and five double-doubles in the last six games. Andrews missed her first nine shots before hitting six of her last eight, including four 3-point field goals, and Baylor went on to their 31<sup>st</sup>-consecutive victory over the Horned
Frogs.<br>

<strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">LADY BEARS LOOKING TO TAKE BACK CONTROL OF IOWA STATE SERIES</span></strong><br>
Prior to Iowa State's back-to-back wins over Baylor March 8, 2020 and Jan. 16, 2021, the last team to beat Baylor twice in a row was Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish beat the Lady Bears in consecutive Elite 8s March 31, 2014 and March 29, 2015. The last Big
12 team to beat Baylor twice in a row in conference play was Texas on Jan. 31, 2010 and again on March, 2010. If Iowa State were to pull off the upset again, it would be the first time a league opponent beat Baylor three times in a row in the regular season
since Oklahoma beat the Lady Bears four-straight times in the 2005-06 and 2006-07 seasons. Baylor's focus will be on returning to controlling the series with Iowa State. The Lady Bears lead the all-time series 30-9 and are 29-6 in the Mulkey era. Prior to
the Cyclones' two wins over Baylor, the Lady Bears had taken 19 of the previous 20 meetings.<br>

<strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">RICHARDS, KNOWN FOR HER DEFENSE, QUIETLY MOVING UP BAYLOR'S ALL-TIME ASSISTS LIST</span></strong><br>
When most think of </span><dfn><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"><a href="https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10008"><span style="color:#154734">DiDi Richards</span></a></span></dfn><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">,
they think defense. After all, she was the National Defensive Player of the Year by both the WBCA and Naismith last season without having high steals or blocks numbers. Her reputation for on-ball defense and pestering the Big 12 and the nation's top perimeter
players earned her the awards. But, many might not know that Richards is one of Baylor's all-time best passers. In her last five games, Richards has collected 42 assists with just 10 turnovers. This season, she ranks first in the Big 12 in assists per game,
which ranks 8th nationally. She ranks second in the league in total assists, and last season she was the Big 12 statistical champion and ranked 7th in the nation in assist-to-turnover ratio. Her 459 assists coming into Sunday's game ranks 5th all-time on the
Baylor career assists list. With COVID-19 looming, Richards may not get to put up the numbers she normally would have, but she has a shot to leave Baylor at 3rd all-time in that category. Kristy Wallace collected 525 assists in her four years and ranks third.
Richards has 11 Big 12 games left to play, a Big 12 Tournament and an NCAA Tournament. Her pace is 6.7 assists per game, and if she continues at that rate, she would pass Wallace in the next 12 games. Niya Johnson is Baylor's all-time leader with 988 and Odyssey
Sims ranked second at 641.<br>

to set career best for season totals in virtually every category. Through 13 games, her 149 points is quickly approaching her previous career best of 154 in her junior season, accomplished in 30 games. Oliver on the other hand already has career best in points
(85) and rebounds (52) in just a dozen games.<br>

<strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">COVID-19'S EFFECT ON THE LADY BEARS</span></strong><br>
All are having to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Lady Bears are no exception. Baylor lost four games scheduled for the Preseason WNIT in Waco in November, along with a Thanksgiving week game vs. Oregon in Las Vegas. Originally scheduled for Nov.
27, Baylor and Northwestern State's game was postponed due to COVID issues within the NWST program and was rescheduled for Dec. 18. Baylor lost its top-10 matchup with UConn Jan. 7 and postponed originally-scheduled Big 12 contests with K-State at home (Jan.
10) and at Kansas (Jan. 13).<br>

(SCIOWRA). Ursin returned to practice after clearing concussion protocol in mid-November while<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 & 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>
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 "Best Thing I Saw Today" segment.<br>

Baylor's win at South Florida Dec. 1 marked the program's 1,000th victory. Baylor became the 15th program in NCAA Division I history to reach 1,000 victories joining Tennessee, UConn, James Madison, Louisiana Tech, Stanford, Texas, SFA, Old Dominion,
Ohio State, Maryland, Western Kentucky, Wisconsin-Green Bay, South Dakota State, and Notre Dame. </span><dfn><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"><a href="https://baylorbears.com/coaches.aspx?rc=1573"><span style="color:#154734">Kim

<strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">MULKEY JOINS STAR-STUDDED 2020 CLASS WITH NAISMITH HALL OF FAME INDUCTION</span></strong><br>
The Big 12 and NCAA Tournaments were cancelled, but </span><dfn><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"><a href="https://baylorbears.com/coaches.aspx?rc=1573"><span style="color:#154734">Kim Mulkey</span></a></span></dfn><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"> did
get some good news in April when she was announced as a member of the 2020 induction class to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. She and her class' peers are virtually peerless as she joined a star-studded class, including Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan,
Kevin Garnett, Tamika Catchings, Rudy Tomjanovich, Eddie Sutton, Barbara Stevens and Patrick Baumann.<br>
Her induction ceremony was delayed due to COVID-19 and the 2020 class has yet to be enshrined. Her induction will be as a coach, although she has been nominated as a player on numerous occasions. She was also a finalist in 2018. Mulkey's many accomplishments
earned her the honor, but among them are three NCAA titles, 21 Big 12 championships, and she was the fastest NCAA Division I head coach, man or woman, to reach 600 career victories (700 games).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
