No. 1-ranked Baylor women’s basketball went undefeated in the Big 12 regular season for the second year in a row and the fourth time in school history, avoiding a near upset from the West Virginia Mountaineers 61-57 on Monday in Morgantown, W. Va.
With their 35th straight Big 12 road win, the Lady Bears finished the Big 12 regular season 18-0. Baylor went undefeated in conference play in 2012 and 2013 in addition to the past two years.
Only two other teams have gone unbeaten in Big 12 play: Oklahoma in 2006 and Nebraska in 2010.
