LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - The Texas Tech Lady Raiders fell to the Oklahoma State Cowgirls Saturday 92-80 in a game that needed three overtimes.

The Lady Raiders erased an 8-point deficit as Bre’Amber Scott with a clutch five points in the final two minutes of regulation helped force overtime.

After that, the Lady Raiders battled back from a deficit in every overtime period. They had the chance to have the final shot in two of the overtimes, but both opportunities came up short.

In the 3rd overtime, the Cowgirls were able to expand on a few untimely turnovers from the Lady Raider offense - an offense that ran predominantly through Bre’Amber Scott, as she ended the day with 30 points.

This was Texas Tech’s first overtime game since Nov. 16, 2022, when they beat Colorado 86-85.

Texas Tech has now lost their last four games dating back to their home win to Texas. Oklahoma State has now won five straight.
