SHARE THE SUGAR
• Baylor took down Kansas State by 45 points due to a total team effort on Wednesday night. The Bears assisted on 30 of 35 made field goals.
• The Bears nearly had four players log 20+ points in a game for the first time in program history - Jordan Lewis<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10723> 24, NaLyssa Smith<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10721> 22, Queen Egbo<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10718> 19 and Sarah Andrews<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10716> 19.
• Egbo had a monster performance with 16 boards in addition to her 19 points. The senior also played exceptional defense, helping hold K-State's leading scorer to only eight points.

TEXAS TWO STEP
• Baylor became the first team since 1999 to defeat a ranked opponent twice in three days as the Bears took down then-ranked No. 13 Texas, 75-63 (2/4) and 63-55 (2/6).
• NaLyssa Smith<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10721> combined to put up 53 points off 21-of-30 (70%) shooting from the floor and a perfect 10-for-10 mark from the free-throw line as well as pull down 21 rebounds.
• BU never trailed in the first contest between the rivals on 2/4. The Bears started fast with an eight-point advantage after the first quarter and never looked back. Baylor scored 25 points off 20 Texas turnovers.
• It was a different beginning but the same result in the second game as the Bears got off to a sluggish start, only making seven field goals in the first half for 18 points. Baylor came out of the half and made their first 10 shots of the third quarter to come from as many as 10 points down in the third to secure the eight-point victory.

WALKING DOUBLE-DOUBLE
• NaLyssa Smith<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10721> is fifth in the country with 15 double-doubles on the season.
• Smith is fourth in program history with 43 career double-doubles. She's six away from tying Maggie Davis-Stinnett (1986-89, 1990-91)
• The senior is averaging 20.8 points and 11.4 rebounds per game which ranks No. 11 and No. 14 in the country, respectively.

LET IT FLY
• Baylor's program record for triples made came on Dec. 18, 2019 against Arkansas State when Juicy Landrum caught fire and set an NCAA record with 14 triples. Besides that record-setting performance, BU hadn't drained more than a dozen shots from deep since 2011.
• BU's record for 3-point attempts in a season came in 2013-14 when the Bears attempted 596 3s.
• From that season to 2020-21, Baylor made 10 or more 3-pointers in a game only five times across a total of 281 games (1.78 percent). BU has done so five times this season.
• At Kansas, Baylor nearly set a record with a 14-for-29 display from the perimeter. BU's 14 treys marked the second most in program history.
• Prior to this year, only 14 Bears had made six or more 3s in a game. Two of them had done it multiple times (Makenzie Robertson, 2012, 2014) and Jennifer King (1990, 1991, 1993).
• Sarah Andrews<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10716> and Ja'Mee Asberry<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10724> have already joined that elite club this season. Andrews went 6-for-8 against Morehead State and from deep and Asberry fired off 6-of-8 against Alcorn State. Asberry then went 6-for-11 at Kansas, and Andrews set a career-high with a 7-for-10 mark.
• Andrews' seven 3s tied for third in program history. She is now one of six Bears in program history to hit a minimum of seven triples in a game.
• Jordan Lewis<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10723> joined the club with her 6-of-7 performance against Iowa State.
