LUBBOCK, Texas - Texas Tech senior forward LaToya Davis was named the Big 12 Player of the Week for the week of Dec. 12-18. It is the first league honor for Davis this season.

Last week, Davis poured in a career-high 33 points in Texas Tech's 99-58 win over Oral Roberts in the Lady Raiders' lone contest.

Davis scored 25 of her points in the first half. The Houston, Texas, native shot 81.3 percent from the field, hitting 13-of-16 shots. Davis was also 7-of-10 from the free throw line for 70 percent. She added eight rebounds and a steal in the 41-point victory in 25 minutes of action.

On the year (prior to the game vs. Louisville), Davis leads the Lady Raiders in scoring and rebounding as she is averaging a double-double with 21 points and 10 rebounds while shooting a team-high 62.8 percent from the field.
