• Baylor clinched a share of the regular-season Big 12 title with a 25-point win on the road at No. 8 Iowa State in front of a record crowd at Hilton Coliseum. <br>
• BU's streak of 12 regular-season titles in a row is the longest active streak in the country in men's AND women's hoops.<br>
• The streak ties for fourth all-time in WBB behind Green Bay 20 (1999-2018), Louisiana Tech 15 (2003-17), Stanford 14 (2001-14) and Old Dominion 12 (1993-2004).<br>
• With 24 combined conference championships, Baylor ties Stanford for the most among Power 5 schools since 2004-05.<br>
• With a win over Texas Tech on Sunday or an Iowa State loss on Saturday, Baylor would clinch the championship outright.<br>
• Baylor became the first school since Texas Tech in 2000 to start league play 0-2 and end up winning the conference title.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

• 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.<br>
• BU's record for 3-point attempts in a season came in 2013-14 when the Bears attempted 596 3s. <br>
• 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. <br>
• 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.<br>
• 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).<br>

a career-high with a 7-for-10 mark.<br>
• <b>Andrews'</b> 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.<br>
