Mar 08, 2026 | Women's Basketball
MANHATTAN, Kansas – Following her stellar performance at the 2026 Phillips 66 Big 12 Women's Basketball Tournament, K-State freshman Jordan Speiser has been named to the Big 12 All-Tournament Team.
With this honor, Speiser becomes the sixth player in program history to be named to the Big 12 All-Tournament Team and first since Ayoka Lee in 2024.
During the 2026 Phillips 66 Big 12 Women's Basketball Tournament, Speiser averaged 15.8 points on a .500 field goal percentage, including a .485 3-point field goal percentage, 3.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game. Since 1999-00, Speiser became the third player in Big 12 Tournament history to record 10 or more points off the bench in at least three games.
Speiser tied the national mark by a freshman in the last 15 years for three-point field goals made in any conference tournament in NCAA Division I, as she made 16 in the four games. Her 16 made 3-point field goals were the most in a tournament in school history and the second-most in Big 12 history.
The product of Warrenton, Missouri, is tied for second in program history for 3-point field goals made (16) in a Big 12 Tournament career. She is second in program history for 3-point field goal percentage (.485) in a Big 12 Tournament career.
Against Cincinnati in the first round, Speiser registered her first career 20-point game with 20 points on 7-of-10 shooting, including 6-of-8 from beyond the arc, two assists and two steals. Her six connections from long range were a career-high. Speiser tied the school record for 3-point field goals made in a Big 12 Tournament game, joining Laurie Koehn who made six against Baylor on March 12, 2003.
Speiser's six three-pointers combined with Nastja Claessens (five 3-pointers) and Taryn Sides (five 3-pointers) helped K-State become the 11th team in the nation since 1999-00 and the first Big 12 team to have three or more players make five or more 3-pointers in the same game.
Against Oklahoma State in the quarterfinals, Speiser surpassed her career-high with 21 points on 8-of-13 from the field and a 5-of-10 performance from 3-point range, with three rebounds and two assists.
In the semifinals against TCU, Speiser carded a team-high 16 points on 6-of-14 shooting, including 3-of-8 from beyond the arc, and added four rebounds.
K-State (18-17) will now await its postseason destination, with the selection show for the 2026 WBIT on Sunday, March 15, at 8 p.m., on ESPN+.
