What 2 Watch 4
• Oklahoma State's women's basketball team will close out its non-conference slate this week when it travels to San Diego for the Surf 'N Slam Classic.

• OSU is one of seven remaining undefeated teams in the nation.
• OSU will be looking to start 10-0 for just the second time in school history and the first time since its school-record 10-0 start in 1995-96.
• OSU's last in-season tournament title came at the 2010 UNM Thanksgiving Classic in Albuquerque. Last year, the Cowgirls finished second at the Peppermill Holiday Classic in Reno, Nevada.
• The Cowgirls have won 20 consecutive games in which four players have scored in double figures, including all nine wins this season.
• The Cowgirls are currently ranked in the top 10 in nine of the 18 NCAA statistical categories.
• OSU currently ranks first nationally with its 88.8 points per game and is second in scoring margin (+39.3) and assists (20.5 apg).
• The Cowgirls have assisted on 191 of their 311 field goals (61 percent) thus far.
OSU Against The Field
• OSU has never met Harvard or SDSU on the hardwood. The Cowgirls are 2-1 all time against SMU.
• OSU's last meeting against SMU came on Nov. 14, 1998 and resulted in a 64-57 Cowgirl win.
Know The Foe
• Harvard has not played since an overtime loss at Boston on Dec. 10 that snapped its four-game winning streak.
• SDSU is 7-3 and has won three in a row after its win against Fresno Pacific on Dec. 19.
• SMU is 8-3 after its Dec. 22 loss to Wichita State.
UT Arlington Leftovers
• The Cowgirls had at least four players score in double figures for the ninth time this season.
• Brittney Martin recorded the program's first-ever triple-double, finishing with 10 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists.
• The Cowgirls logged their sixth 90-point game of the season to tie the school record set in 1987-88.
• The win extended OSU's winning streak to 15 games, which dates back to last year's WNIT run. The string became the longest in the nation after Baylor's 42-game string came to an end on Nov. 16.
