Kaitlyn Giametta found Zdrojewski making a run to her right where she then filtered in the pass as the senior tucked it away to the keeper's opposite side to the far-left post. The assist for Giametta was her first of the year. Kansas regained the lead in the 38^th minute to take a 2-1 lead into the break.

KU entered the game leading the Big 12 in corner kicks with 149 – registered seven in the first half compared to Tech's two. The Jayhawks led 9-5 in shots with three on goal with Tech firing two on frame.

Coming out of the half, Addie Todd secured two saves in the first seven minutes to hold off KU's attack. Tech's offense continued to build with back-to-back shots just one minute before Alana Harry found the back of the net for her first score of the season in the 70^th minute. Off a corner kick, Giametta collected the rebound and then found Harry who put it away inside the six-yard box.
