Shelby McDaniel scored a long-range goal in the 27th minute, but it wasn't enough as the Bearkats lost 3-1 to No. 10 Texas Tech in Lubbock. The Red Raiders scored twice in the first 17 minutes and then put the game away with a third in the 69th minute.
Sam Houston faced a total of 24 shots in the match and were only able to get four shots off against Texas Tech. Goalkeeper Kylie Hambleton made five saves while her counterpart Lauren Watson was forced to make just one.
The Bearkats again struggled to handle set piece situations. The first two goals were scored on headers by Tech midfielder Hannah Devine off of corner kicks by fellow junior midfielder Alli Murphy. SHSU has allowed five goals off of corner kicks so far this season.
Alli Murphy then got on the score sheet to put the game away.
The Bearkats will return home for six consecutive home matches. SHSU will close out non-conference play with Utah State, Friday, September 12, and TCU will come to Pritchett Field that Sunday.
