Rebels upset No. 4 Baylor in Round of 32
WACO, Texas (FOX 44) — A heartbreaking finish in Waco sees Baylor Women's Basketball's season come to an end as Ole Miss held on in the late stages to send the Bears home in the Round of 32, 69-63. Both teams entered the Foster Pavilion eager to prove their worth with a ticket to the Sweet 16 hanging in the balance. Ole Miss took the early advantage with the Bears tying it up five times throughout the first two quarters, eventually taking their first lead of the game with just 47 seconds remaining in the half. The most glaring stat came from behind the arc, where two teams that came into Sunday afternoon shooting over 30 percent from three-point range failed to record a three-point bucket in the first half. Both teams shot a collective 0-13 with Baylor missing eight threes in the first 20 minutes. Each team came out of the halftime break with something to prove in the second half, unwilling to have their season come to an end on Sunday. The Rebels tied the game three times before finally breaking through to take the lead back with 4:58 left in the third quarter. Baylor wouldn't go away, battling back to take the lead right back off an and-one bucket from Darianna Littlepage-Buggs, trading leads but ultimately heading into the fourth quarter knotted up at 48. The Rebels jumped out to a six-point lead to start the final frame to take their largest lead since the second quarter but the Bears battled right back, cutting the deficit to just two with a huge three from Sarah Andrews. The Rebels took the lead back twice and the Bears tied it right back up twice, with each team laying it all on the floor down the stretch. The Bears ultimately couldn't get buckets when they needed them under a minute as the Bears fell short of a second-straight Sweet 16 appearance. Baylor finishes the season with a 28-8 record.

Baylor falls short in Big 12 Championship against TCU
KANSAS CITY, Missouri (FOX 44) — Baylor's conference title hopes fell just short with a 64-59 loss to TCU. The Horned Frogs have proven to be the Bears kryptonite, defeating Nicki Collen's squad three times this season. Nicki Collen's squad was short handed again, playing without star forward Darianna Littlepage-Buggs. Foul trouble haunted the Bears for the majority of the game. Bella Fontleroy and Jada Walker both recorded their fourth foul before the end of the third quarter. Baylor overcame a double-digit deficit to tie the game at 57 with three minutes remaining but TCU had just enough firepower to hold off the Bears comeback effort. Aaronette Vonleh had a look from three point range with less than 10 seconds left to tie the game but she missed off of the front iron, sealing the TCU victory. Most of Baylor's offense came from three players. Vonleh led the way with 20 points, Sarah Andrews did her thing with 13 points and the Big 12 Sixth Player of the Year winner Yaya Felder lived up to the billing with 12 of her own. Sedona Prince is one of the best post players in the country and she proved that for the Horned Frogs, playing all 40 minutes and racking up 12 points and 14 rebounds. Hailey Van Lith earned the Big 12 Player of the Year in the regular season and she was the difference in the conference title, filling it up with 20 points. Now all the Bears can do is wait and see if they did enough in the committees eyes to earn a top four seed and host the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament at the Foster Pavilion. The Selection show is set for Sunday, March 16th. The tournament begins on Wednesday, March 19th. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
