Streak Snapped, OU Falls to TCU

January 19, 2020 | Women's Basketball

NORMAN – The Oklahoma women's basketball team saw its first loss in four games Saturday as the Sooners fell to TCU 82-63 Sunday at Lloyd Noble Center.

With the loss, OU moves to 10-7 overall and 3-2 in Big 12 play. TCU improves to 13-3 and 4-1 against the league.

"We didn't play very well," said head coach Sherri Coale. "I thought TCU played extremely well. They looked like a veteran team today. We didn't have the kind of defensive commitment we needed in the first half … The second half we couldn't make a basket – a layup or three, it didn't matter. We have to be able to score when we are trying to come back and they built that lead in the third quarter.

 There is a lot we can learn from this game. We are excited to get back to work and do that."

Four players scored in double figures for the Sooners but TCU out-shot OU 53.3% to 40.7%. TCU's Jayde Woods and Kianna Ray led all players with 18 points as five Horned Frogs scored in double digits. Taylor Robertson led the way for OU with 16 points, her first game in nine contests with fewer than 20.

In a season-high 40 minutes on the court, freshman Gabby Gregory chipped in 15 points and added four rebounds on the night. She also added a steal and an assist. Mandy Simpson and Madi Williams tallied 12 and five rebounds apiece.

After a back-and-forth first half, OU trailed TCU 41-39. The Horned Frogs used a run in the third quarter to jump out to a 12 point lead headed into the final period. The Sooners scored just eight points in the fourth quarter as TCU closed out the game on five-point run. 

Up Next

OU is on the road for two games next week, facing Texas Tech Wednesday at 7 p.m. before making a trip to Kansas State on Saturday for a 2 p.m. meeting.
