The Lady Techsters opened the 2021-22 season Tuesday night with a dominant 103-53 win over Jarvis Christian College to move to 1-0 on the year.

All 12 Lady Techsters that saw action in the game scored at least two points as all five starters scored in double-figures, highlighted by Keiunna Walker's 26 points and Anna Larr Roberson's 14 points.
The Lady Techsters turned defense into offense pressuring Jarvis Christian into 33 turnovers, which included 19 Tech steals, leading to 43 points for the LA Tech offense. Tech's defense also saw 10 different Lady Techsters grab a rebound, led by six each from Walker and Roberson.
