March Madness 2025
Unless your spring break destination was somewhere televisions don’t yet exist, such as the moon, the Shire, or College Station, you are probably aware the Baylor men’s basketball team has reached the Sweet 16.
The basket was as wide as the ocean for Brady Heslip, and because of that, the future looks as bright as those uniforms for the Baylor Bears.
I know it hurts now Baylor fans. The men’s basketball team created some attention and momentum with its play in the first two games of the tournament, and it seems like Missouri took it away in one fell swoop.
No. 11 Baylor men’s basketball finished runner-up in the 2012 Big 12 tournament after losing to the Missouri Tigers 90-75. Baylor was led by sophomore Perry Jones III, who finished with 16 points and 11 rebounds.
Baylor men’s basketball stunned the top-seeded Kansas Jayhawks in the semifinals of the Big 12 Championship tournament 81-72. Every Baylor starter scored in double figures, but sophomore Perry Jones III led the Bears with 18 points and seven rebounds.
The No. 1 Baylor Lady Bears (18-0) look to add to the win column as they host No. 23 Kansas State (13-4) at 7 p.m. Saturday at the Ferrell Center.
Brittney Griner scored 21 points to lead No. 1 Baylor over Texas Tech 72-64 on Wednesday.
You’ve heard it said that defense wins championships. Defense has become the backbone of the No.1 Baylor Lady Bears’ unfinished business and quest for Denver, Colo.
Brittney Griner turned in another dominant performance, tying her season high with 32 points to go with 13 rebounds as No. 1 Baylor stayed unbeaten Sunday with an easy 77-59 win over Texas.
The game was played just as passionately as any other, but the sense of something more important filled the Ferrell Center.
