March Madness 2025

Baylor basketball has been a threat all season, and heading into March Madness, it’ll continue to be one. Once it passes the first weekend, both teams will be ready to make it deep into the tournament.

Collen said the team intentionally brought in players who have produced in previous places.
The Baylor women’s basketball team will welcome four transfers and one freshman for the 2023-24 season.
