After the game, former LSU star and current WNBA player Angel Reese sent a five-word message to Van Lith, who played all but one minute against Baylor and finished with 14 points, two rebounds, and two assists. "so proud of you sis!" Reese wrote in response to a photo of Van Lith holding the Big 12 trophy.

TCU’s defense was instrumental in the win, holding Baylor to just two points in the first five minutes of the fourth quarter. The Horned Frogs capitalized when Taylor Bigby and Agnes Emma-Nnopu hit back-to-back three-pointers, extending TCU’s lead to 44-36.
