LUBBOCK, Texas - TJ Holyfield scored 21 points, Kyler Edwards added 17 and Texas Tech beat Oklahoma 69-61 on Tuesday night when both teams reached the midpoint of the Big 12 schedule.

After the two teams traded baskets for much of the second half, the Red Raiders (14-8, 5-4 Big 12) finished the game with a 13-5 run. A free throw by Jahmi'us Ramsey made a tiebreaking free throw before Davide Moretti hit a 3-pointer and Edwards made a strong drive into traffic for a layup.

Ramsey finished with 13 points while Moretti had 11.

Brady Manek led Oklahoma (14-8, 4-5) with 19 points and Austin Reaves had 16.

Ramsey and Edwards had consecutive 3-pointers in a 36-second span to give Texas Tech a 42-41 lead with 15 minutes left. There were eight lead changes over the next six minutes. Edwards hit a 3-pointer for a 51-49 lead, and the Red Raiders never trailed again.

Reaves scored the last eight points for Oklahoma, starting with a tying 3-pointer with 4:50 left before Texas Tech's final run.
