West Texas A&M Lady Buffs, registering an overall record of 83-
19 during her time in Canyon for a winning percentage of .814.
The 2017-18 Lady Buffs continued to be the measuring stick
in the Lone Star Conference as they claimed the regular season
and tournament titles with an overall record of 29-5 with a 16-4
mark in league action. WT advanced to the NCAA South Central
Regional Finals with wins over Arkansas-Fort Smith and Metro
State before falling to Lubbock Christian in the Title Game. The
Lady Buffs finished 17th in the Women’s Basketball Coaches

was named the Lone Star Conference Coach of the Year, four
Lady Buffs picked up All-LSC accolades while sophomore guard
Lexy Hightower was named a WBCA Honorable Mention All-

In 2016-17, Mattio and the Lady Buffs had another standout
year both on the court and in the classroom as the team won
the Lone Star Conference Women’s Basketball Academic
Championship with a team grade-point average of 3.568 and
finished 19th nationally in the WBCA Academic Top 25. WT
sophomore Reagan Haynes earned the prestigious honor of
winning the Elite 90 Award which goes to the top student-athlete
with the best GPA at the National Championship round.
On the court in 2016-17, the Lady Buffs continued the success
from her first season as the team was ranked as high as third
nationally during the season and finished 15th in the final WBCA
