The Texas Tech Red Raiders are set to face the #11 TCU Horned Frogs on Saturday, January 11, at 6 pm CT. TCU fans should keep an eye on these standout players from Texas Tech, who could play pivotal roles in the game:
#3 Jasmine Shavers – Guard, Junior
Hailing from Mesquite, Texas, Jasmine Shavers has been a key player for Texas Tech this season. As a 6-foot-8 junior guard, she leads the team in scoring and steals. Shavers excels in midrange shooting and aggressive drives to the basket, making her a versatile offensive threat. For TCU, limiting Shavers’ penetration and forcing her into tough shots will be essential to their defensive strategy.

Assists: 1.8
Field Goal %: 38.5%
#20 Bailey Maupin – Guard, Junior
Bailey Maupin, a junior guard from Gruver, Texas, complements Shavers’ offensive prowess with her own scoring abilities. Known for her midrange jumpers and poise in traffic, Maupin also contributes defensively, making her a critical asset on both ends of the floor. TCU’s ability to stifle Maupin’s scoring and disrupt the chemistry between her and Shavers will be key to curbing Texas Tech’s offensive flow.
Season Statistics:
