Kansas State women’s basketball got off to a rough start in Big 12 play, falling 77-55 to No. 9 TCU Saturday afternoon in a game that was close early, but eventually was put out of reach.
The Wildcats, one of the youngest teams in the country, couldn’t find a foothold against the Horned Frogs, the oldest and most experienced team in the nation, and K-State faded through the final three quarters while TCU soared.
“(TCU) is really good,” head coach Jeff Mittie said in a statement. “They’re very veteran. They play that way, and we don’t play that way right now. We’ve got to grow up quicker. We’ve got to play beyond our years right now, and we have not done that well enough, particularly against a team like them.”
