In a display of offensive efficiency, the Oregon State Beavers outperformed the Texas Tech Lady Raiders in women's basketball at Seabury Hall. The home team showcased their shooting accuracy with a field goal percentage of 52 and were particularly lethal from beyond the arc, converting 44 percent of their three-point attempts into points. The Beavers' sharpshooters nailed 11 three-pointers, contributing significantly to their total score.


The Oregon State squad also demonstrated superior ball distribution with an impressive tally of 21 assists. This facilitation allowed for dynamic offensive play and kept the defense guessing throughout the game. On defense, they managed to block two shots and steal possession six times from their opponents.


Rebounding was another area where the home team excelled; they pulled down a total of 39 rebounds—26 defensive and eight offensive—which played a crucial role in maintaining possession and creating second-chance scoring opportunities that led to an additional 12 points.


Despite committing more personal fouls than their opponents with a count of 22, it did not deter them from maintaining control over the game flow. Their discipline was evident as they limited themselves to just one team turnover compared to eight by the Lady Raiders.


On Texas Tech's side, despite falling short on points scored, they put up a valiant effort throughout all four quarters. They managed to accumulate three blocks and twelve steals defensively but struggled offensively with lower shooting percentages across all categories compared to Oregon State: field goals (34 percent), two-points (38 percent), free throws (76 percent), and notably only making three out of fifteen attempted three-pointers for a mere twenty percent completion rate.


The Lady Raiders were aggressive in converting turnovers into points as well; they scored thirty-three points off turnovers which highlighted their ability to capitalize on mistakes made by Oregon State who had twenty-four turnovers during this matchup.


Looking ahead for fans eager to support their team once more: The next game for Oregon State will be against Morgan State Lady Bears at Gill Coliseum located in Corvallis on December 28th at approximately five o'clock Pacific Time.
