Eleanor Hays started it by slipping a pass to fellow defender Kylie Bahr, who raced deep into Oklahoma State territory. Bahr found Raleigh Greason in the middle of the 18-yard box, and Greason hit a left-footed strike for a 1-0 lead just 2 minutes and 50 seconds in.

Just over five minutes later, Avery Bass stopped a Taylor Zdrojewski shot but punched the rebound back into play. Hays headed it home. Then an errant pass from Bass fell to Zdrojewski, who chipped the keeper with a bomb from 40 to make it 3-0.

The win moves the Red Raiders (8-0-4, 4-0-1 Big 12) into sole possession of first place in the Big 12 table, helped by losses from BYU and Baylor. It is Tech's fourth straight win overall and fourth in a row against the Cowgirls. The unbeaten streak now sits at 17 matches, and this was win No. 53 since 2023. Addie Todd made three saves for her Big 12-leading seventh clean sheet of the season, while Oklahoma State fell to 4-5-3, 1-3-1 in league play.

The Cowgirls' best chance all night was a penalty kick in the 63rd minute, and they missed it.
