The Bears hosted NCAA singles and doubles individual championships, separate from team championships for the first time, in November.
Adversity can oftentimes rattle and break the morale of teams. This is not the case, though, head coach Michael Woodson and Baylor men’s tennis. They have learned from their first-round postseason exit against San Diego last year and are hungry to take on the 2025 season after a dominant fall.
The Bears have been without their full lineup for much of the season.
Head coach Scott Drew looked on as No. 25 Baylor men’s basketball scored six points in four seconds to tie the game. With six seconds on the clock, TCU senior guard Brendan Wenzel swished a corner 3-pointer to give the Horned Frogs a 74-71 lead.
The Bears went 1-for-6 on fourth downs in a game littered with mistakes.
Redshirt junior quarterback Sawyer Robertson threw for a career-high 445 yards on 30-of-51 passes, but a handful of self-inflicted wounds ate away at Baylor football’s chances to knock off LSU as they fell to the Tigers in the Kinder’s Texas Bowl, 44-31, Tuesday afternoon at NRG Stadium.
“I think it’s really important that we win in this game, you know, to finish what we started,” head coach Dave Aranda said. “If we do that, it puts us in a good position for next year to go and win some more. We’ve really worked hard to win. This is going to be a tough game to win, but we need to win this game.”
With the Christmas season in full swing and Big 12 competition less than three weeks away, Baylor head coach Scott Drew has one thing on his wish list: a healthy basketball team.

Men's Basketball
After Tchamwa Tchatchoua drilled his first career postseason 3-pointer with 1:16 to play, Sacks found his first with 22 seconds remaining. Sacks’ 3-pointer marked the 16th of the night, which tied a postseason program record and notched the 92nd point which also marked the highest scoring output for the Bears (24-10) in an NCAA Tournament game in school history.
The only team in the country to be a No. 3 seed or higher in each of the last four NCAA Tournaments, three-seeded Baylor men’s basketball did so with four new starters. Now, the Bears roll into a round of 64 matchup against No. 14 seed Colgate, which is scheduled for 11:40 a.m. on Friday at FedExForum in Memphis, Tenn.
Baylor redshirt sophomore guard Langston Love must have picked up pennies on the tails side or walked under ladders growing up. Love is out for the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament with a series of ankle injuries, and the setback came after dealing with a torn ACL his freshman year, followed by an eye injury down the stretch of the 2022-23 season.
Women's Basketball
The Bears have now won 14-straight home openers.
No. 19 Baylor women’s basketball left Hardin-Simmons University in shambles after a 120-41 victory in an exhibition matchup on Friday night in the Ferrell Center. The Bears shot 65% from the floor, and all 13 women who saw the floor were able to find a bucket, with five scoring double figures. On defense, the green and gold forced 26 turnovers and allowed a measly 19% field goal percentage from the visiting team.
The Bears are adding several new pieces into the mix ahead of Friday’s scrimmage against Hardin-Simmons.
Tennis
With lots of Bears on the road, here is eveything you may have missed over the weekend away from home.
No. 10 Baylor men’s tennis looked to take down one of the best teams in the nation on Wednesday night in the Hawkins Indoor Tennis Center, but No. 3 Texas Christian University came in strong and took down the Bears 4-1.
The Bears failed to get much going as they lost to the Gators. It’s Baylor’s second loss of the season.

In the 2023 season, Major League Baseball officials added the pitch clock to aid the speed of the game. After the season and now into 2024, I’ve seen that the pitch clock has been very useful and has accelerated the pace of the game.
