Nov 21, 2008 - 4:28 AM LUBBOCK, Texas (Ticker) -- Thursday's performance by Texas Tech's basketball team was enough to make the potent Red Raiders' football team blush.

The Red Raiders defeated East Central University, 167-116, scoring 90 points in the second half.

Pat Knight's squad shot 59.3 percent (67-of-113) from the field, making 13-of-25 shots from beyond the arc.
