WACO, Texas – HCU women's basketball will take a quick road trip north to face off against the no. 21 Baylor Bears at 2:00 p.m. Sunday afternoon in the Ferrell Center. Houston Christian University (HCU), formerly Houston Baptist University (HBU), underwent a name change in September 2022. 
 
Sunday's game can be found live on ESPN+ and live stats can be followed on HCUHuskies.com or through the @HCUAthletics Twitter page.  
 
This will be the third game the HCU (3-3) women's basketball have played against a top-25 ranked opponent this season. Early in the season the Huskies played #22 Nebraska Cornhuskers and #15 LSU Tigers in back-to-back games. They will take on their fourth and final ranked opponent, the #19 Texas Longhorns, in a few weeks - their final game before the Southland Conference schedule begins. 
 
HCU's two game winning streak came to an end Wednesday, when they were downed by UTRGV. Abbey Sutherland recorded her first double-double of the season in that contest. Julija Vujakovic once again found herself leading the Huskies offense with 12 points. She was tied with Kennedy Wilson with a team high three assists.  
 
This season Vujakovic is leading the Huskies with 13.2 ppg. followed by N'Denasija Collins who averages 12.3 ppg. Marilyn Nzoiwu grabs the most rebounds for HCU, averaging nearly seven boards per game.  
 
Baylor (5-2) played #23 Villanova and #22 Michigan in back-to-back shootouts. The Bears got the best of Wildcats, 75-70, before losing to the Wolverines 84-75. Aijha Blackwell leads five Bears averaging double-digit points this year with 14.0. Sara Andrews is a close second averaging 13.7 ppg. while Bella Fontleroy leads their bench unit averaging 10.0 ppg.
