Iowa State was plagued by turnovers throughout the game, and a 16-2 Texas Tech run in the 3rd quarter doomed the Cyclones, who lost 66-69 to the Lady Raiders on Sunday in Lubbock, Texas. Iowa State was unable to survive its first game without Bryanna Fernstrom, who left the team for undisclosed reasons on Monday. Seanna Johnson had 19 points and 10 rebounds, but she accounted for nearly half of Iowa State's 23 turnovers.
The Cyclones (11-5, 3-2) jumped to an early 7-0 lead against a Texas Tech squad that had failed to win a Big 12 game this year before Sunday.
