AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Heather Schreiber scored 23 points and had 14 rebounds Saturday as No. 20 Texas gave coach Jody Conradt her 799th career victory with a 70-50 win over Baylor.

A win Wednesday night over No. 7 Texas Tech would make Conradt only the second women's coach to reach the 800-victory mark. Tennessee's Pat Summitt notched her 800th win on Jan. 14. Conradt is 799-262 in 34 seasons.

Schreiber had 17 points by halftime as Texas (11-4, 4-0 Big 12) broke a four-game losing streak to the Bears and remained undefeated at home. Steffanie Blackmon scored 14 for Baylor (12-3, 1-2) with all of her points coming in the second half.

Texas led 43-22 at halftime by holding the Big 12's highest scoring team to just 10-of-36 shooting from the floor. Blackmon, who averages 19.7 points, was 0-of-5 in the first half.

Baylor, which came in averaging 83 points per game, was just 19-of-72 shooting with 19 turnovers and hit just one 3-pointer.

The Longhorns raced to a 15-2 lead behind Schreiber's three consecutive 3-pointers. Jamie Carey struck twice from long range to make it 27-10.

Schreiber's 3-pointer with 10:58 left in the second gave Texas its biggest lead at 64-34.

Stacy Stephens added 11 points and Carey and Tai Dillard each scored 10 for Texas. Sophia Young scored 11 for Baylor, which has lost two straight after a 12-1 start.
