No. 18 Baylor (8-2) 93, Tennessee State (4-6) 27
Waco, Texas (Ferrell Center)
Thursday, Dec. 15, 2022


  *   The No. 18 Baylor Bears posted an impressive 93-27 win over Tennessee State inside the Ferrell Center on Thursday.
  *   The 66-point victory marked the largest margin of win in the Nicki Collen era and second largest since topping McNeese by 93 in 2020.
  *   The 90-point outpouring marked the second-straight game the Bears recorded 90-or-more, powering past UT Arlington last week, 91-36.
  *   Freshman Darianna Littlepage-Buggs led the way for the Bears with a 30-point, 11-rebound performance for her fourth-career double-double.
  *   Littlepage-Buggs became the first Division I player to outscore a Division I opponent by herself this season, and only the fourth in the Big 12 to do so since 1999-00.
  *   The reigning Big 12 Freshman of the Week is the first Big 12 and Baylor freshman to outscore an opponent by herself since Brittney Griner in 2009-10.
  *   In her first appearance back from injury, senior Aijha Blackwell added 11 points off the bench and grabbed seven rebounds in just 10 minutes of action.
  *   Everyone who was available for the Bears saw the floor, as senior Jaden Owens logged a team-high 28 points. She led the team in assists for the eighth time this season, dishing out six along with junior Sarah Andrews.
  *   Graduate Ja’Mee Asberry recorded a season-high 16 points, going 2-for-3 from behind the arc and a perfect 4-for-4 from the charity stripe.
  *   Rookie Bella Fontleroy added 12 points off the bench for the Bears, marking the sixth-straight contest she has reached double figures.
