FIVE THINGS TO KNOW

• The Oklahoma women's basketball team hits the road for the first time in two weeks as the Sooners head to No. 2/2 Baylor Saturday for a 4 p.m. meeting.

• Saturday's matchup will be OU's fifth contest with a ranked opponent this season and third meeting with a top-10 team (OU previously played No. 2 UConn and No. 6 Baylor). The Sooners are 2-2 against teams in the AP top 25 after defeating No. 25 LSU 90-68 in the Big 12/SEC Challenge on Dec. 7 and No. 17 West Virginia 73-49 in Morgantown on Jan. 15.

• Taylor Robertson has captured the OU single-season 3-pointers record after draining her 116^th of the season against Kansas State on Feb. 16. Robertson, who is the national- and active career leader in 3s per game is averaging 4.64 this season and is well on track to shatter the Big 12 record of 123 set by Laurie Koehn in 2002-03.

• Robertson was also named to the Ann Meyers Drysdale Award's top 10. The award recognizes the top shooting guard in women's NCAA Division I college basketball. Robertson is averaging a team-high 20.1 points per game and a nation-leading 4.78 3-pointers per game. The list will be pared down to five finalists in March with the winner named at The College Basketball Awards presented by Wendy's in Los Angeles, CA on Friday, April 10, 2020, along with the other four members of the Women's Starting Five.

• Baylor leads the all-time series between the teams 30-26. OU is 14-10 in Waco, but has not defeated the bears since Feb. 25, 2015 in Norman.

GAME 25 RECAP: KANSAS STATE 87, OU 85 OT

Taylor Robertson broke the OU single-season 3-pointers record with her 116th trey of the season as the Oklahoma women's basketball team battled Kansas State to overtime, but fell to the Wildcats 87-85 Sunday in the annual Play 4 Kay game.

Robertson finished the day with 27 points and went 4-for-8 from beyond the arc as she played all 45 minutes of the contest. The sophomore added seven rebounds and two assists.

Robertson's third trey of the game moved her into first place for the most 3s in a single season, surpassing Aaryn Ellenburg's record of 115 set in 2012-13. With 116 triples this year, Robertson holds the Big 12 sophomore record and is the only player in league history to hit 100 3-pointers in back-to-back seasons.

Gabby Gregory scored a career-high 20 points and sank three treys herself in the effort. Madi Williams joined Robertson and Gregory in double figures with 15 and nine boards.

Kansas State's Peyton Williams led all scorers with 31 points and 19 rebounds for a double-double. Ayoka Lee also had a double-double of 14 points and 13 rebounds.

A back-and-forth battle saw 12 ties and 12 lead changes. The game was tied at 75-all at the end of regulation. OU struck first in overtime with a layup from Robertson, but Kansas State narrowly outscored the Sooners 12-10 in overtime to claim the win.
