The Lady Raiders (11-14, 3-11 Big12) take on the Kansas Jayhawks (8-17, 2-12 Big12) on Saturday, February 18, 2017. This will be the 29th meeting between these two teams. The Lady Raiders lead the series 18-10. Kansas is 4-9 when playing the Lady Raiders in Lubbock. The Lady Raiders lost to Kansas in the first matchup earlier this season on Jan 26th (60-66). The game was played in Lawrence, KS. and was a tight game. The Lady Raiders pretty much lost this one at the “charity strip”. Tech didn’t make their FTs but the Jayhawks did. I am hoping it is a different game today in Lubbock. I am hoping the Lady Raiders control the game and make their shots count, both from the floor and the free-throw line. Kansas is good at Stealing the ball and so the Lady Raiders will have to have good ball control and good clean passes. I am hoping the Lady Raiders are able to turn things around and win soundly. Texas Tech needs a positive boost and I think this game can give that to them.
This game supports the Play 4Kay so the Lady Raiders will be wearing pink uniforms.
Texas Tech will also be honoring former Lady Raider Sheryl Swoopes for her induction into the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2017.
Focus on the game at hand
Get the Win ….. Wreck’Em !!!!
Beat the Kansas Jayhawks !!!
