LUBBOCK, Texas - The Mavericks opened the month of December and their second of two trips to Texas with an 87-58 loss to Big 12 powerhouse Texas Tech on Wednesday night as their three-game win streak came to an end.

Omaha is back at .500 on the year at 5-5, while the Red Raiders improve to 6-2.

Leaders for Omaha 
Marquel Sutton, Frankie Fidler and Jaeden Marshall all scored in double-figures tonight, with Sutton shooting 7-for-11 for 15 points, Fidler going 5-for-11 for 12, and Marshall making 3-of-7 for 10. Sutton was also tied with Nick Davis for the team lead in rebounds with five each.

Leaders for Texas Tech
The Red Raiders nearly had two players top 20 points today, with Kerwin Walton going 8-for-9 with six three-pointers to lead the way with 22 points, followed close behind by Joe Toussaint who scored 18 and went 7-for-8 from the stripe. Meanwhile, Warren Washington was the top rebounder of the night, pulling down 12.

Team Stats 
Omaha held a slim lead in second-chance points tonight at 11 to nine, and also kept it close in the paint, only being outscored 24-22. Overall, though, Texas Tech outshot the Mavericks on field goals (50% to 42%), three-pointers (39% to 27%), and free throws (90% to 57%).

Inside the First Half 
Through the first five minutes Omaha held an 8-5 lead over the Red Raiders, with Fidler opening up scoring with a layup at 18:33, and Tony Osburn ending the run with a jumper in the paint at 15:16. However, Texas Tech bounced right back and retook the lead at 14:26, holding it for the rest of the half.

Down 14-8 at 12:27, Marshall made it a four-point game after collecting his own rebound and making the layup, but that would be as close as Omaha would get as TTU outscored them 28-12 over the remainder of the half. Osburn and Sutton would make up half of those points over the final 90 seconds as they scored the first threes of the night for Omaha.

Inside the Second Half 
Trailing 50-27 three and a half minutes into the second, the Mavericks cut the deficit to 16 after they went on a nice 7-0 scoring run starting with a layup from Marshall, followed by a bucket and the and-one from JJ White, and closed out by two from the stripe for Grant Stubblefield. Halfway through, Omaha was even outscoring Texas Tech 22-17 as Sutton passed into double-digits and Fidler made his first three at 10:34 to keep the deficit to 16.

Like in the first, though, the Red Raiders came out strong in final 10 minutes, going on a 28-14 run to close out the game.

Game Notes 
- Fidler began the day with 970 career points. After tonight, he only needs 18 more to become the first Maverick in two years to reach the milestone.
- Despite the large deficit after the first half, the Mavericks were actually outshooting the Red Raiders 48% (10-for-21) to 39% (11-for-28) on field goals.
- All six Omaha three-pointers tonight were scored by a different player.
