Just when the Bears’ defense put them in position to advance to the semifinals, their offense went ice cold.
In a tight contest throughout, No. 5 seed Baylor women’s basketball came up short as No. 4 seed Iowa State squeezed out a 67-62 victory in the quarterfinals of the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship on Saturday afternoon at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Mo.
Leading the way for the Bears was graduate student forward Dre’Una Edwards, as she had 17 points, seven rebounds and two assists. Sophomore guard Bella Fontleroy contributed 14 points and five rebounds.
