QUOTES
"We knew there was going to be a lot of surge at the beginning of the game, and we couldn't be the ones on our heals. I really liked the group we had started the game with and they played really well together, especially on the defensive end of the floor," Coach Raegan Pebley said postgame.
UP NEXT
TCU will have a couple days off before welcoming Missouri State to Schollmaier Arena on Friday. Tip-off against the Bears is scheduled for 6:00 p.m. on Big 12 Now on ESPN +.
