WBB: Lady Bears Defeat Kansas State in Big 12 Tournament Quarterfinals

Regardless of the quality of the opponent, it always seems that one team has another's number throughout the year. For Baylor, it seems that we had Kansas State's number this year, beating Kansas State by 30 and 22 during the regular season, even when Kansas State was playing much closer in other contests.

Baylor started the second half with a 6-0 run to extend the lead to 49-29. After leading 55-34 with 14.17 left, Kansas State started to put together a run that extended over 10 minutes and drew within 7 of Baylor. However, Kansas State would not score for the remaining 1:28, letting Baylor push the lead back to 12.
