Box Score
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Lauren Ebo was so excited about celebrating her final regular season home game that she was unaware of another milestone.Ebo scored a career-best 17 points to help No. 9 Texas extend its winning streak to eight games with a 65-50 victory against Oklahoma State on Saturday in the final regular season game ever at the 45-year-old Frank Erwin Center.
Ebo, a 6-foot-4 center, converted 6 of 9 field goal attempts, grabbed a game-high six rebounds and made two blocks as Texas (23-6, 13-5 Big 12) finished the regular season with those eight straight wins after losing three in a row, including two to No. 5 Baylor.
Lexy Keys and Lauren Fields scored 10 apiece to lead Oklahoma State (8-19, 3-15), which finished the regular season with five straight defeats.
Texas led 40-20 at halftime after making 11-0 runs in the first and second quarters. Harmon scored six points during the second run as Texas took a 24-point lead, its largest of the game. The only real glitch for Texas was four turnovers on four straight possessions during the final two minutes of the half.
Oklahoma State shot just 30.6 percent and committed 20 turnovers, six more than its average, against an aggressive Texas approach that included full-court defensive pressure. Coach Jim Littell said his team did not adjust well after facing a much different style against Oklahoma on Wednesday.
"We didn't handle the pressure very well in the first half," Littell said. "They got us sped up. We came off a game with Oklahoma where it was a soft zone and you didn't have any worries about handling the ball."
