In front of a sea of blue and white, No. 10 Baylor men’s basketball took the court in the Big Apple for a neutral-site contest against No. 21 Duke but came up short, 78-70. Despite freshman center Yves Missi putting on a show good enough for Broadway, the Bears left Madison Square Garden with a bitter taste in their mouths on Wednesday night.

When Nicki Collen was hired as the Baylor women’s basketball head coach, she inherited a squad that had just watched Kim Mulkey, its former coach, leave for LSU. Left with only nine players for the 2021 season, Collen made it work, as she continued the 11-year streak of regular season Big 12 championships.
