LUBBOCK, Texas – A 3-point shooting outburst helped guide a record-breaking performance by Iowa State (9-3, 1-0 Big 12) as the Cyclones took down Texas Tech (11-1, 0-1 Big 12) 96-66 Friday night at United Supermarkets Arena. Heading into the night’s contest, the Lady Raiders were one of eight undefeated teams in the country.

Iowa State’s first quarter saw the Cyclones score 35 points via a school-record eight 3-pointers. However, TTU was able to erase a 17-point lead to tie up the game. However, the visitors had another crazy quarter on the cards, as ISU outscored Tech 31-4 in the third period on a school-record 12-of-13 (92.3 percent).

For the night, ISU’s 37-of-57 (64.9 percent) shooting effort from the field was one of the most efficient performances in program history. Iowa State’s 96 points is a record for a Big 12 road game, the previous besting being 92 at Nebraska on Feb. 4, 2001.

ISU finished with a season-high 16 3-pointers. The Cyclones’ victory was led by 23 points from Kristin Scott, who went 9-of-15 from the field on the night. Joining her in double figures was Ashley Joens (19), Maggie Espenmiller-McGraw (17), Adriana Camber (12) and Rae Johnson (11).
