The Cowgirls' season record now stands at an impressive 12-6, while the Bears hold a 15-3 record. Both teams displayed competitive spirit and skill, but it was the Cowgirls who emerged victorious in this closely contested match.

The game unfolded with high intensity as both teams vied for dominance on the court. The Oklahoma State Cowgirls started strong, outscoring the Baylor Bears 19-15 in the first quarter. Their offensive efforts were led by their ability to convert from beyond the arc, making nine three-pointers at a notable 39 percent accuracy rate. The team's overall field goal percentage was solid at 40 percent, with twenty-five successful shots out of sixty-two attempts.

Defensively, the Cowgirls were just as formidable. They pulled down an impressive total of forty-four rebounds compared to thirty-six by their opponents. Of these rebounds, twenty-eight were defensive which helped limit second-chance points for the Bears to only six.

On offense, points in paint contributed significantly to their scoring tally with twenty-four points coming from inside action against twenty-six by Baylor. Moreover, fast break opportunities were capitalized upon effectively by Oklahoma State resulting in ten fast break points.

Despite committing more personal fouls than their opponents (twenty compared to seventeen), and turning over the ball sixteen times which led to eighteen points off turnovers for Baylor, resilience shone through for Oklahoma State as they maintained composure under pressure.

Key players stepped up when it mattered most; two blocks and three steals underscored a determined defensive effort that complemented their offensive execution throughout all four quarters of play.
