Hamlin's 20-point night sends BYU women over No. 19 Texas Tech, 73-61
PROVO, Utah (AP) --- Olivia Hamlin scored 20 points, Delaney Gibb tallied 17,
and BYU trailed for less than a minute of game time in a 73-61 win over No. 19
Texas Tech.
The Cougars (15-4, 4-3 Big 12) won their first game against a ranked team since
a 68-64 win on Feb. 15, 2025 against then-No. 20 Oklahoma State. They are 3-7
in their last 10 games against ranked opponents, and 23-55 historically.
After Texas Tech hit a game-opening 3-pointer, BYU went on a 7-0 run that gave
them the lead for good. A 9-0 run to start the fourth quarter extended their
lead to double-digits, and they cruised to a comfortable victory.
Laura Rokohl added 15 points on 6-for-9 shooting for BYU and grabbed eight
rebounds. Gibb dished a team-high six assists. Hamlin was 9-of-15 from the
floor and 2-for-5 from beyond the arc.
For the No. 19 Lady Raiders (19-2, 6-2), Snudda Collins scored 17 points and
Jalynn Bristow came one point shy of a double-double with nine points and 11
rebounds. The Lady Raiders have lost two straight after their 19-0 start.
Texas Tech struggled shooting, managing 33% from the floor and 26% from beyond
the arc. BYU was 47% and 44%, respectively.
