It may be the Lady Bears’ third consecutive year advancing to the third round of the NCAA Tourney, but head coach Kim Mulkey believes this year’s Sweet 16 venture against Wisconsin-Green Bay Sunday at 8 p.m. at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas tastes just as sweet.
The Lady Bears knocked off any rust from their week-long break as they defeated Florida International in both games of a doubleheader Thursday, first 2-0 then 4-3. The win improves Baylor to 26-4.
