HOW IT HAPPENED
The difference in the contest was the second period of action where the Horned Frogs (2-3) were outscored 19-12. TCU would battle back in the second half, but it was not enough to overtake the lead. The Bearkats closed the game out in the end for the six-point victory.
Tomi Taiwo led TCU in the scoring column with 14 points after shooting 4-for-8 from behind the arc and a perfect 2-for-2 at the line. Lucy Ibeh recorded her first double-double of the season as she compiled 10 points and 10 rebounds in the game. Paige Bradley was the only other Horned Frog to reach double-figures in scoring as she finished with 10 points on 4-of-8 shooting from the field.
As a team, TCU struggled at the free-throw line as they converted on just 10 of their 21 free throw attempts. Overall, the Horned Frogs shot 18-for-57 from the field and 8-for-23 from behind the three point line, and were out rebounded by the Bearkats 40-44.
Chyna Allen and Madelyn Batista led Sam Houston State in scoring with 16 points each.
TCU falls to 2-3 on the season, while Sam Houston State moves their record to 2-3.
QUOTES
"In the end, Sam Houston just had more quality shots than we did. We played at a pace that was not going to help us play at our best, and we fell into that trap of trying to respond to their pressure with more pace," Coach Raegan Pebley said postgame.
UP NEXT
TCU will continue their home stretch after the holiday when they play host to Incarnate Word on Tuesday, November 29th. Tip-off against the Cardinals is scheduled for 12:00 p.m. inside Schollmaier Arena. The game will be televised on the Big 12 Now network and ESPN Plus.
