The No. 15 ranked Baylor Bears women’s basketball team secured a narrow 67-64 victory against the Arizona State Sun Devils at the Desert Financial Arena in Tempe, Arizona, on Saturday night to maintain their momentum in early-season play. Led by a standout performance from Taliah Scott, the Bears managed to repel a late-game surge from the Sun Devils, who were fighting to pull off an upset on their home court. The tightly contested matchup served as a critical test for Baylor's composure and defensive structure under pressure. Taliah Scott proved to be the decisive factor for the Bears, contributing a team-high 17 points to help keep Baylor ahead during crucial stretches of the game. Despite the thin margin of victory, Baylor’s offensive execution in the paint and their ability to convert at the free-throw line allowed them to stay just out of reach of an Arizona State squad that refused to quit. The Sun Devils showcased significant resilience, narrowing the gap in the final minutes, but ultimately fell short of overhauling the ranked visitors. This victory underscores Baylor’s status as a top-25 powerhouse, though it also highlights areas for growth as they navigate a challenging non-conference schedule. For Arizona State, the narrow loss serves as a moral victory and a sign of potential, demonstrating that they can compete at a high level against elite national programs. Baylor will look to refine their perimeter defense and turnover margins moving forward, while Scott continues to establish herself as a primary scoring threat for the remainder of the season.
