March Madness 2025
Head coach Scott Drew will lead his Baylor Bears against his brother Bryce’s Grand Canyon Antelopes at a public exhibition Friday at Foster Pavilion. The matchup will be the first time the two college basketball legends have faced off publicly since 2015.
Redshirt sophomore guard Cameron Carr is the lone player on Baylor’s roster to share a practice court with last season’s team. The former four-star and ESPN top 100 recruit is coming into the season carrying the burden of an expected leader for the Bears.
The first 17 years of head coach Scott Drew’s career at Baylor saw one season-ending knee injury. The past five years have seen five.
Baylor’s roster saw complete turnover this offseason, returning zero players from last year’s team. After competing together in the FISU World University Games, though, the Bears’ new faces have gelled quickly.
The Bears took to Germany this summer to represent the United States in the World University Games, hosted by International University Sports Federation (FISU).
Behind eight more made 3-pointers than Iowa State and 21 forced turnovers, Baylor women’s basketball extended its winning streak to eight, downing the Cyclones 67-52 Saturday afternoon at the Foster Pavilion.
No. 19 Baylor women’s basketball won their seventh straight game, the longest active streak in the Big 12, taking down Colorado 84-62 Thursday night at the CU Events Center in Boulder. The win keeps the Bears in a two-way tie for first place in the conference with No. 9 TCU.
“My identity is through Christ, so I don’t feel like my identity has changed much after making this decision,” Bartley said. “I think that I’ve just had a change in my life and my path, and that’s okay.”
The 25th-ranked Bears picked up their second ranked win of the year and led for the final 35 minutes of the game. They assisted on 19-of-26 made baskets and shot 50% from the floor as the starting lineup accounted for 70 points.
On the same night she was honored for scoring 1,000 career points, junior forward Darianna Littlepage-Buggs picked up her 10th double-double of the year, leading all players with a season-high 26 points and 15 rebounds to push Baylor women’s basketball past BYU 83-71 Saturday evening at the Foster Pavilion.
