Florida had three players in double-digits on Sunday with Kiara Smith leading the way at 23. LSU, on the other hand, was solely reliant on Khayla Pointer who put up 35 as the lone Tiger to score more than eight points.
For the majority of the game, the Gators did a good job of keeping it close never letting LSU pull away with a significant lead. That back-and-forth play would continue in the second half with nine lead changes occurring and ultimately resulting in a one-point win for the Gators.
No. 15 Baylor throttles No. 7 Iowa State
No. 15 Baylor sent a message to the No. 1 team in the Big 12 as the Bears dismantled the Cyclones 87-61. This is Baylor's first win against a ranked opponent this season.
Center Queen Egbo was a force to be reckoned with all day, racking up 14 points and 21 rebounds on the day. Those 21 boards were a career high for Egbo and tied her for the fourth most in program history. It wasn't just Egbo putting in work on Sunday, three other teammates were in double digits, including Jordan Lewis who put up 24 in the win.
