Sophomore Destiny Collins is second on the team in scoring, averaging 8.0 points per game. She also leads the team in steals with 2.0 per game.

Texas State opened the season with its WNIT game and fell to New Mexico, 82-51. Toshua Leavitt poured in 18 points in the setback as the Bobcats' lone scorer in double figures.
