Wisconsin Badgers at Maryland Terrapins
· NCAA Women's Basketball
Oluchi Okananwa's career-high 28 points help No. 7 Maryland rout Wisconsin, 97-59
The Terrapins (14-0, 2-0) overwhelmed the Badgers (9-4, 1-1) with their size advantage and secured a 51-28 rebounding advantage.
Okananwa scored seven of the Terps’ first 10 points to prompt a Wisconsin timeout with 8:08 left in the first quarter. It did little good, as the Badgers had six turnovers before Destiny Howell’s basket with 4:44 to go in the period ended Wisconsin’s opening drought.
Maryland led 29-8 after a quarter. The Terps had a 12-0 edge in fastbreak points in the first 10 minutes and a 14-5 advantage in points off turnovers while dominating the glass 16-3.
The Terps never led by less than 20 after that, stretching the margin to 43-18 by halftime and 73-40 after three periods.
Maryland is 14-0 for the fourth time in coach Brenda Frese’s 24-year tenure. The Terps won their first 18 games in 2006-07, their first 16 in 2011-12 and their first 14 last season.
Howell scored 14 points to lead Wisconsin, which shot 19.2% in the first half and 30.3% for the game.
Maryland improved to 15-0 all-time against the Badgers, with all but one of the meetings coming since the Terps joined the Big Ten in 2014-15.
Maryland visits Illinois on Thursday.
