Texas Tech basketball: Jahmi’us Ramsey’s return sparks Red Raiders vs. UTRGV

For the second-straight game, the Texas Tech basketball team played down to the level of its opponent in Lubbock on Saturday. Fortunately, for the second-straight game, a better second-half showing kept the No. 24 Red Raiders from being an upset victim at home as they extended their home-court winning streak over non-conference opponents to 53 games by beating UT Rio Grande Valley 68-58.

Red Raider fans got an early Christmas present when leading scorer Jahmi’us Ramsey returned from a 4-game absence to make his first start since Thanksgiving night. The true freshman shook off the rust to score a team-high 15 points on 6-12 shooting on an afternoon when his team’s offense looked out of sync for much of the game.
