What 2 Watch 4
• Oklahoma State will begin play at the Big 12 Championship with a 6 p..m. contest against Oklahoma on Thursday.
• The Cowgirls will arrive in Kansas City as the No. 8 seed, while the Sooners are the No. 9 seed.
• Vivian Gray has scored in double figures in 55 consecutive games and 58 of her 60 outings as a Cowgirl. She has logged 20-point outings in 13 of her last 21 contests.
• Against TCU in Fort Worth, Gray surpassed the 500-point mark for the second season in a row, a feat only accomplished twice previously (Andrea Riley 2007-10 and Kaylee Jensen 2016-18) at OSU. Only three Cowgirls have logged multiple 500-point seasons during their careers with Clinette Jordan doing it in 1986-87, 1988-89.
• She is now 20 points shy of joining Riley as the only player in school history with multiple 600-point seasons.
• Gray has 33 20-point outings in her career. Among OSU's All-Americans over the past decade she ranks second behind Andrea Riley (76) and ahead of Kaylee Jensen (32), Brittney Martin (27), Toni Young (24), Loryn Goodwin (20) and Tiffany Bias (15).
• Gray matched her career high with nine assists against Texas Tech and with it became the first player nationally this season to record 500 points, 100 rebounds, 100 assists, 40 steals and 20 blocks.
• Natasha Mack is third nationally with her 12.5 boards per game. She grabbed a school-record 23 boards against Oral Roberts on Dec. 20.
• Mack ranks sixth nationally with her 96 blocks and is also third with her 3.6 blocks per game.
• The Cowgirl defense has produced 15 single-digit scoring quarters and caused 16 shot-clock violations as well.
• She is 24 points shy of 500 for the season, which would give OSU multiple 500-point scorers for the second time in three seasons.

• The Cowgirls are 1-3 all time as the No. 8 seed.
