College basketball fans were impressed by Hailey Van Lith's performance as she led TCU to a 69-43 win over Texas Tech on Saturday night. The 5-foot-9 guard was the top scorer for the Horned Frogs (17-1, 5-0 in Big 12) with 22 points on 7-of-14 shooting and 8-of-9 from the free throw line.

The LSU transfer also added four rebounds, seven assists and one block in 39 minutes for the No. 11-ranked TCU, who won at Texas Tech's homecourt for the first time in six years. Van Lith's explosive game caught the eye of college hoops fans who were impressed by her performance.

One fan believes Hailey Van Lith's recent success at TCU will raise her WNBA draft stock.

"Stock back up," the social media user wrote on X.

Another basketball enthusiast said the guard was in total attack mode and couldn't be stopped.

"Beast Mode," the fan said.

A social media follower hailed Hailey Van Lith for her excellent all-around work in the game.

"Hard work, nice job!" he added.

Another user gave a simple three-letter word that described Van Lith's game against Texas Tech.

"MVP," the fan wrote.

A hoops enthusiast sent out three goat emojis to express his admiration for the TCU guard.

"Hailey🐐🐐🐐 ," a basketball follower added.

However, not all fans are impressed with Van Lith's game. One follower criticized her harshly, but another came to her defense:

"lol she’s actually 🗑️, " a fan posted.
"You have zero ball knowledge," another fan replied.

Hailey Van Lith and Sedona Prince dominate for Horned Frogs in win over Lady Raiders

TCU's dynamic duo of Hailey Van Lith and Sedona Prince almost outscored the entire Texas Tech team in the 26-point win on Saturday night at the United Supermarkets Arena in Lubbock, Texas.

Van Lith dropped 22 points while Prince dominated the paint, tallying 20 points, 10 rebounds, two assists, three steals and five blocks. Madison Conner added 13 points on 4-8 shooting from 3-pointers.

TCU last won against Texas Tech on the road on Feb. 6, 2019, when the Horned Frogs came back from a 15-point deficit to win the game.

Bailey Maupin led all scorers with 23 points, but the Texas Tech guard struggled from the field, making only 6-of-25 shots. While she was perfect from the free-throw line, going 10-for-10, her poor shooting night impacted the Lady Raiders, who connected on only 13-of-57 attempts as a team.

TCU will play at home against UCF on Tuesday, while Texas Tech faces Iowa State on the road the same day.
