Kaylee Jensen averaged a double-double with 28.5 points and 14.0 rebounds in back-to-back road wins at Iowa State and TCU. The senior scored 22 points and grabbed a game-high 16 rebounds at No. 24 TCU. She netted a career-high 35 points and pulled down 12 rebounds at Iowa State. Talk about ballin! Jensen is a preseason All-Big 12 team member who is currently averaging 18.6 points per game and 10.6 rebounds.

Iowa State wasn’t able to contain Jensen, but Madison Wise still had an impressive game. The Cyclone freshman tallied 21 points, nine rebounds and two assists last week in the loss to the Cowgirls. Wise shot 66.7 percent (8-of-12) from the field. The 21-point performance was a career-high for Wise and marked the 10th time this season that she has reached double figure scoring.

The Big 12 standings are still pretty tight between the 3 through 6 spots. Anybody can win on any night. No. 21/25 Oklahoma State will host No. 3/3 Baylor tonight with a tip time of 7pm. Iowa State will travel to face No.24 TCU on Wednesday at 6:30pm.
