Basketball:
Massive win for the program. This is a tournament team.
“Leadership and experience are so important this time of year, and we are seeing that in a lot of different ways from our team right now,” TCU head coach Raegan Pebley said.
Iowa State senior guard Bridget Carleton was the Cyclones main offensive production, scoring 34 points and grabbing 10 rebounds. She entered leading the Big 12 in points per game (20.6).
Succeeding a 15-point first quarter performance from Carleton, TCU’s (18-6, 8-5 Big 12) defense kicked it up a notch in the second quarter and held Carleton to just two points.
