Owls to Make Home Debut vs. Texas Southern
The Owls will make their long-awaited (14 days) home debut on Tuesday when they host crosstown foe Texas Southern in the 2018-19 home opener from Tudor Fieldhouse. Rice leads the all-time series vs. the Lady Tigers and the two teams will be meeting for the first time since the Owls defeated TSU 52-49 on the road on Dec. 11, 2016.
Last Time Out
Four players scored in double-digits, and the team shot a combined 58 percent from the floor, as Rice Owls women's basketball team posted a convincing 79-65 road victory Saturday afternoon at Little Rock. Rice took the lead midway through the first quarter and stayed in front more than 34 of the game's 40 minutes. The Blue & Gray led by as many as 22 in the fourth period, and finished the game out-rebounding the Trojans 31-17 on the defensive boards. Rice was led in scoring guard Erica Ogwumike, who poured in 21 points and tied her career-high with 19 rebounds.
Texas Southern Scouting Report
The Lady Tigers picked up their first win of the season last time out with an 83-54 victory over Paul Quinn. Marquia Turner (21 points) and Niya Mitchell (18 points) led the team in scoring. The Lady Tigers were picked to finish second in the SWAC.

Rice continues their four-game homestand with a 2 p.m. Friday contest against Georgia State at Tudor Fieldhouse.
