What 2 Watch 4
• Oklahoma State's women's basketball team will play its first true road game of the season on Wednesday when it travels to Waco, Texas to face Baylor at 3 p.m.
• The Cowgirls will be looking to start 2-0 in league play for the first time since starting 3-0 during the 2019-20 season.
• Head coach Jacie Hoyt and her husband, Daniel, welcomed their first child on Dec. 11, Harlow Renee Heflin.
• The contest will mark the latest date OSU has played its first road game since a Jan. 8 tilt at K-State in 2014.
• The Cowgirls currently stand at No. 32 in the NET ranking.
• Ténin Magassa is 13th among current active leaders with her 1.97 blocks per game and 12th with her 207 blocks.
• OSU has already produced a quartet of 30-point scorers on the season. Macey Huard scored a career-high 31 points in the season opener against UAPB and Anna Gret Asi poured in a career-high 33 points in OSU's win over Texas Southern. Micah Gray joined the list with her 36-point outburst against Chicago State. Stailee Heard added a career-best 32 points against Alabama State.
• Gray's output marked the most by a Cowgirl since Andrea Riley's 37-point outing against Kansas in 2010.

Last Time Out
• The Cowgirls earned their first league-opening win under Hoyt. OSU fell to Kansas two years ago and Iowa State last year to open Big 12 play.
