<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt">The Lady Bears made a statement when they plated four runs in the top of the second inning. Josie Bower got things started when she got plunked, and then Taylor Ellis followed with a double off the center
field wall to put runners in scoring position with no outs. Emily Hott then stepped to the plate and singled through the right side to plate a run before a single by Lou Gilbert to center field scored another. After a pitching change for the Red Raiders, Goose
McGlaun roped a double that stayed just fair down the left field line to plate two more runs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt">An inning later, Aliyah Binford led things off with a single through the left side before she scored off a sacrifice fly from Sydney Collazos.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt">Two more runs came across for BU in the fourth inning as Maddison Kettler singled to center field before McGlaun walked and Zadie LaValley singled to load the bases with no outs. Bower then recorded an RBI,
and Ellis followed with an RBI single through the left side.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt">Texas Tech got on the board in the fifth inning, but Baylor got one of those runs back in the sixth thanks to a big swing from McGlaun. Her fourth home run of the season cleared the right field wall and put
BU up by six.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt">Sidney Holman-Mansell got the start in the circle and moved to 6-0 on the year as she gave up two runs off five hits with six strikeouts through six innings of work. Maren Judisch came on in relief for the
final frame and didn’t allow a run or a hit with a strikeout.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
