Bailey Maupin led the Lady Raiders in scoring with 23 points, shooting 6-25 from the floor.

The Lady Raiders have now lost four games in a row in conference play.
At the end of the 1st quarter, TCU only led the Lady Raiders 17-16. It was the 2nd quarter in which TCU pulled away as they outscored Texas Tech 16-5.
