The Texas Tech Lady Raiders picked up their largest win of the season, pummeling Alcorn State, 90-37, on Sunday.
Texas Tech (7-3) outscored the Lady Braves (0-9) 52-10 in the paint and scored 20+ points in three of the four quarters.
“I’m proud of our girls’ consistency throughout the game,” Head Coach Candi Whitaker said. “We had multiple people step up and make plays on both ends of the floor. I’m really proud of our execution and effort.”
Defensively, the Lady Raiders held Alcorn State to just 37 points. The last time the Lady Raiders held an opponent to 40 points or fewer was when TCU scored 37 on Jan. 4, 2015. The Lady Raiders also forced a season-best 11 turnovers in the first half alone.
Six Lady Raiders scored double-digit points for the first time this season. Junior center Jada Terry led the team with 15 points as she went 6-for-7 from the field.
The Lady Raiders return to the United Supermarkets Arena to host UT-Arlington for the final non-conference home game of the season. Tip-off is set for 2 p.m.
