Texas Tech defeated Oklahoma to break a streak of 11 straight wins by the Sooners and complete a 15-2 home season at United Spirit Arena that included a 56-45 victory over then-No. 1 Baylor on Feb. 19.

Texas Tech's win breaks the tie in the overall series as the Lady Raiders now lead 22-21 and hold a 13-8 advantage in Lubbock.

Oklahoma has not won consecutive games or on the road since winning at Kansas on Jan. 23.
