WACO, Texas (AP) — Udoka Azubuike had 23 points and a career-high 19 rebounds and No. 3 Kansas held on to beat No. 1 Baylor 64-61. That ended the Bears' 23-game winning streak, and come Monday, likely their five-week hold on the No. 1 spot in the AP poll. 

The 24-3 Jayhawks have won 12 in a row since their first-ever home loss to Baylor on Jan. 11. They had a 10-point lead with 6 1/2 minutes left before Baylor cut it to one in the final seconds. Jared Butler led the 24-2 Bears with 19 points but missed a potential tying 3-pointer at the buzzer.

 <li>K-State (9-17, 2-11 Big 12) will host its first Saturday home game in more than a month, as the Wildcats return to play Texas (15-11, 5-8 Big 12) at Bramlage Coliseum. The Longhorns have won 2 of the last 3 meetings and will be attempting to sweep the season series for the first time since 2016 after a 64-50 victory on Jan. 11. The game will tip at 1:06 p.m., CT on CBS with Andrew Catalon (play-by-play) and Steve Lappas (analyst). This will be the first CBS game at Bramlage Coliseum and the first in the regular season since a 69-62 loss at Kansas on Jan. 17, 1998.</li><li>Saturday's contest will be Throwback Day at Bramlage Coliseum, as K-State will wear their two-tone lavender throwback uniforms, which were worn from 1973 to 1982, and made famous by the Purple Pop-Gun tandem of Mike Evans and Chuckie Williams during the 1974-75 and 1975-76 seasons and commemorated by Rolando Blackman on the cover of Sports Illustrated after the 1981 upset of No. 1 Oregon State in the NCAA Tournament. Overall, the Wildcats posted an 186-81 (.697) record during the period of the uniform (1973-82), including an 85-41 (.675) mark in Big Eight play, winning the 1977 Big Eight regular-season title and the 1977 and 1980 Big Eight Tournament crowns to go with five NCAA Tournament appearances.</li><li>Texas Tech extended K-State’s misery in close games, as the Red Raiders swept the season series with a 69-62 victory on Wednesday night at United Supermarkets Arena. The loss was the Wildcats’ sixth straight, which is the longest such streak in the Bruce Weber era and the longest by a Wildcat team since also dropping 6 in a row from Feb. 2-19, 2005. The team has now lost 11 games by single digits, including 6 in Big 12 play, and fell to 3-12 in games decided by 10 points or less.</li><li>Texas Tech was impressive on the offensive end, connecting on 50 percent from the field with 18 assists on 23 made field goals, but K-State still had opportunities, closing to within 44-42 after a layup by junior Cartier Diarra midway through the second half. However, a missed dunk by Diarra on the next possession ignited an 8-2 run by the Red Raiders, which provided the necessary cushion to flip the narrow 44-42 lead into a 52-44 advantage with 6:44 to play. The Wildcats could get no closer than 5 points (64-59 with 38 seconds left) the rest of the way. Despite the loss, the team was better offensively, connecting on 47.9 percent (23-of-48) from the field, including 61.3 percent (19-of-31) from inside the 3-point line. It was the highest field goal percentage since hitting on 59.2 percent (29-of-49) in a win at home over No. 12/13 West Virginia on Jan. 18 and the highest in a road game this season.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Injuries have been a big part of K-State’s season, as 5 players have missed 49&nbsp; games, which has caused coach Bruce Weber to use 7 starting lineups. The 7 lineups are the most since using 11 in 2014-15 with at least one true freshman starting in 23 of 26 games, including true freshmen DaJuan Gordon and Montavious Murphy starting together 8 times, including in 7 of the last 8 games. The last time a pair of freshmen started together in more than one game came when Barry Brown, Jr., and Dean Wade started the last 9 games of 2015-16.</li>

Junction City Blue Jay wrestlers will be competing in a Class 6A Regional Wrestling Tournament Friday and Saturday at Washburn Rural High School.

Coach Tyler Gonzalez noted that there are 36 wrestling teams in Class 6A, and they're split into two 18-team regionals. "Traditionally the West has been a little tougher than the East. That's part of why I changed our schedule up, part of why I made it a little tougher on our kids. Could potentially hurt us in some situations with some records but at the same time I think our kids are pretty battle tested and ready for this kind of competition."

Qualifiers from the regional will advance to the Class 6A State Tournament next week in Park City at Hartman Arena.

Baylor - Kansas basketball matchup set for Saturday

Despite the impressive offensive effort by the Red Raiders, K-State (9-17, 2-11 Big 12) still had ample of opportunities in yet another close loss, as the team fell to 3-12 in games decided by 10 points or less. The Wildcats have lost 11 games by single digits, including 6 in Big 12 play.

After falling behind 37-29 less than 2 minutes into the second half after a 7-2 run by Texas Tech, K-State followed with its own run to rally to within 44-42 after a layup by junior&nbsp;Cartier Diarra&nbsp;with 10:10 to play. Diarra stole the ball on the next possession and had a breakaway dunk that would have tied it at 44-all, but the ball hit the rim on the attempted dunk and was rebounded by sophomore&nbsp;Kyler Edwards&nbsp;who then dished it to Moretti for a wide open 3-pointer for a 47-42 lead with 9:46 to play.

The 3-pointer by Moretti ignited the pivotal 8-2 run that flipped a narrow 44-42 lead into a 52-44 advantage, as head coach&nbsp;Bruce Weber&nbsp;called his final timeout with 6:44 remaining. The lead grew to as many as 13 points (64-51) after a personal 5-0 run by Moretti at the 1:37 mark, but the Wildcats continued to fight, using an 8-0 run, to close to within 64-59 with 38 seconds left. However, they could get no closer the rest of the way, as freshman&nbsp;Jahmi’us Ramsey&nbsp;scored the Red Raiders’ last 5 points on a dunk and 3 free throws.

The loss was K-State’s sixth straight, which is the longest such streak in the Bruce Weber era and the longest by a Wildcat team since also dropping 6 in a row from Feb. 2-19, 2005.

Senior&nbsp;Xavier Sneed&nbsp;paced three Wildcats in double figures with 15 points on 5-of-12 field goals, including 2-of-5 from 3-point range, and a 3-of-4 effort from the free throw line to go with a game-high 4 steals, 2 rebounds and 2 assists in 37 minutes. Freshman&nbsp;Antonio Gordon&nbsp;tallied a near double-double with a season-high 14 points on 6-of-7 field goals, including 2-of-2 from beyond the arc, to go with a game-high 8 rebounds.

For the game, K-State connected on 47.9 percent (23-of-48) from the field, including 61.3 percent (19-of-31) from inside the 3-point line. It was the highest field goal percentage since hitting on 59.2 percent in a win over West Virginia at home on Jan. 18 and the highest this season in a road game.

Moretti was joined in double figures by Ramsey (17) and Edwards (14).

With the win, the Red Raiders swept the season series from the Wildcats for the second time in 3 seasons.

The Wildcats have lost 11 games by single digits, including 6 in Big 12 play.After falling behind 37-29 less than 2 minutes into the second half after a 7-2 run by Texas Tech, K-State followed with its own run to rally to within 44-42 after a layup by junior&nbsp;Cartier Diarra&nbsp;with 10:10 to play. Diarra stole the ball on the next possession and had a breakaway dunk that would have tied it at 44-all, but the ball hit the rim on the attempted dunk and was rebounded by sophomore&nbsp;Kyler Edwards&nbsp;who then dished it to Moretti for a wide open 3-pointer for a 47-42 lead with 9:46 to play.The 3-pointer by Moretti ignited the pivotal 8-2 run that flipped a narrow 44-42 lead into a 52-44 advantage, as head coach&nbsp;Bruce Weber&nbsp;called his final timeout with 6:44 remaining. The lead grew to as many as 13 points (64-51) after a personal 5-0 run by Moretti at the 1:37 mark, but the Wildcats continued to fight, using an 8-0 run, to close to within 64-59 with 38 seconds left. However, they could get no closer the rest of the way, as freshman&nbsp;Jahmi’us Ramsey&nbsp;scored the Red Raiders’ last 5 points on a dunk and 3 free throws.The loss was K-State’s sixth straight, which is the longest such streak in the Bruce Weber era and the longest by a Wildcat team since also dropping 6 in a row from Feb. 2-19, 2005.Senior&nbsp;Xavier Sneed&nbsp;paced three Wildcats in double figures with 15 points on 5-of-12 field goals, including 2-of-5 from 3-point range, and a 3-of-4 effort from the free throw line to go with a game-high 4 steals, 2 rebounds and 2 assists in 37 minutes. Freshman&nbsp;Antonio Gordon&nbsp;tallied a near double-double with a season-high 14 points on 6-of-7 field goals, including 2-of-2 from beyond the arc, to go with a game-high 8 rebounds.For the game, K-State connected on 47.9 percent (23-of-48) from the field, including 61.3 percent (19-of-31) from inside the 3-point line. It was the highest field goal percentage since hitting on 59.2 percent in a win over West Virginia at home on Jan. 18 and the highest this season in a road game.Moretti was joined in double figures by Ramsey (17) and Edwards (14).With the win, the Red Raiders swept the season series from the Wildcats for the second time in 3 seasons.

 <li>Kansas State (9-15, 2-9 Big 12) begins a 2-game road trip through the state of Texas on Saturday afternoon, as the Wildcats travel to Fort Worth, Texas to take on TCU (13-11, 4-7 Big 12) at Schollmaier Arena. Both teams enter the match-up on season-long losing streaks, as K-State has dropped 4 in a row while TCU has lost 6 straight. The game will tip at 4:01 p.m., CT on Big 12 Now on ESPN+ with Clay Matvick (play-by-play) and Bryndon Manzer (analyst) on the call.</li><li>TCU will be looking to sweep the regular-season series for the first time in the Big 12 after winning the first contest in dramatic fashion, as Kevin Samuel’s tip-in with 2 seconds lifted the Horned Frogs to a 59-57 win at Bramlage Coliseum on Jan. 7. The game-winning tip-in came 11 seconds after junior David Sloan’s 3-pointer tied the game at 57-all that helped the Wildcats erase an 11-point second-half deficit. In the final sequence, Samuel was able to rebound teammate R.J. Nembhard’s missed jump shot for the tip-in and game-winning basket. The game is one of 13 decided by single digits this season, including 10 losses.</li><li>K-State endured another one of those close losses on Tuesday night, as Oklahoma State connected on a scorching 81.3 percent (13-of-16) from the field in the second half to snap a 4-game losing streak to the Wildcats in a 64-59 victory at Bramlage Coliseum. The Cowboys’ 81.3 field goal percentage in the second half was second-highest by an opponent in a half and the highest since Colorado connected on 82.4 percent on Jan. 24, 2009. OSU hit on an opponent-high 51.2 percent (22-of-43) for the game, including 57.1 percent (20-of-35) from inside the 3-point arc. Despite the hot shooting, K-State still had its opportunities in the game, drawing to within 49-47 on a layup by junior Cartier Diarra with just over 6 minutes to play and to within 59-55 with 1:24 remaing. However, each time, the veteran Cowboys were able to withstand the rally, including hitting 5-of-8 free throws in the final minute of play.&nbsp;</li><li>Since winning 4 in a row, including 3 straight to open Big 12 play, TCU (13-11, 4-7 Big 12) has won just 1 of its last 9 games, including a current 6-game skid that began in a 78-67 loss at Arkansas in the Big 12/SEC Challenge on Jan. 25. However, the Horned Frogs have been solid at home, posting an 11-4 record, which includes a 65-54 win over Texas Tech on Jan. 21. TCU is paced by All-Big 12 candidate Desmond Bane, who ranks second in the Big 12 in scoring at 16.0 points per game, while two others (R.J. Nembhard and Kevin Samuel) are averaging double figures.</li><li>Despite the loss in January, K-State has still won 16 of 23 previous meetings with TCU, including a 13-5 mark in the Big 12 era. The Wildcats have won 3 of their last 4 meetings with the Horned Frogs in Fort Worth, including a 64-52 victory last season. Shooting from long distance played a huge role in the first meeting in 2020, as 10 of TCU’s 20 field goals made came from 3-point range, including 4 by Bane, while K-State connected on just 20 percent (4-of-20) from long range in the narrow loss.</li><li>Injuries have been a big part of K-State’s season, as 5 different players have missed a combined 47 games, which has caused head coach Bruce Weber to use 6 starting lineups. The 6 lineups are the most since using 11 in 2014-15. Freshmen DaJuan Gordon and Montavious Murphy have started together in each of the last 6 games, which is the first freshmen pair to start together since Barry Brown, Jr., and Dean Wade in 2015-16.</li>
