ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) --- Olivia Olson had season highs of 21 points and 11
rebounds to help No. 6 Michigan rout Central Michigan 82-40 on Wednesday night.
Olson scored 12 points and fellow sophomore guard Mila Holloway added nine of
her 16 points during a third quarter that saw the Wolverines (7-1) stretch an
11-point halftime lead to 59-32. Michigan turned it into a rout by outscoring
the Chippewas 23-8 in the fourth quarter.
Ayanna-Sarai Darrington led Central Michigan (5-3) with 11 points and five
rebounds.
Syla Swords scored 11 points and Ashley Sofikanich added 10 for Michigan, which
entered the game as the nation's fifth highest-scoring team at 92.7 points per
game. Michigan outrebounded Central Michigan 58-33 margin and outscored the
Chippewas 40-20 in the paint.
Early on, the Wolverines were on pace to eclipse the 100-point mark for the
fourth time in eight games, leading 25--9 after one quarter, before their
offense temporarily stalled.
Central Michigan took advantage of a sloppy second quarter, outscoring Michigan
12--7 as the Wolverines made 2 of 11 shots with eight turnovers, trimming the
halftime margin to 32--21.
Michigan dominated early, opening with a 12--0 run and limiting Central
Michigan to two shots in the first 4:43 while recording three steals and
forcing six turnovers.
The Chippewas of the Mid-American Conference were seeking consecutive wins over
Big Ten opponents after beating Purdue 57-55.
