OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) --- Raegan Beers scored 22 points and had 12 rebounds, and
No. 9 Oklahoma won its 10th straight by routing No. 23 Oklahoma State 92-70 on
Saturday afternoon.
Sahara Williams scored 18 points and Aaliyah Chavez and Zya Vann added 15 each
for the Sooners (11-1), who won their seventh straight in the series. The
in-state rivals played annually before Oklahoma left the Big 12 for the
Southeastern Conference ahead of last season.
Oklahoma shot 51.3% from the field and scored at least 90 points for the eighth
straight game. All five Sooners starters scored in double figures.
Micah Gray scored 22 points and Jadyn Wooten added 15 for the Cowgirls (10-2),
who had won five straight. Oklahoma State shot just 37.8% from the field and
28.1% from 3-point range.
Vann's 3-pointer at the end of the first quarter gave the Sooners a 21-20 lead.
In the second quarter, Oklahoma State coach Jacie Hoyt disagreed with a foul
call against the Cowgirls on a breakaway layup attempt by Oklahoma, then
hounded the official until she was called for a technical foul. Chavez, the
Sooners' leading scorer for the season, made both free throws --- her first two
points of the game --- to give Oklahoma a 38-28 lead with just under three
minutes left in the first half.
The Sooners led 42-37 at halftime, despite Chavez producing only four points
before the break.
Oklahoma opened the game up with a 30-point third quarter to take a 72-56 lead
into the fourth. Williams scored eight points and Chavez scored seven in the
quarter. The Sooners made 13 of 21 field goals in the period and had 10 assists
on 13 made field goals.
