No. 1-ranked Baylor women’s basketball advanced to 23-1 on the season after defeating Oklahoma 87-53 on Saturday night at the Ferrell Center thanks to a near triple-double by junior forward Lauren Cox and a season-high 24 points from senior guard Chloe Jackson.
With the help of early fouls from Oklahoma and Baylor’s defense coming up with four blocks and seven rebounds, the Lady Bears got the lead early, ending the first quarter 20-8.
Oklahoma’s offense struggled, starting the game 2-for-15 on field goals, and couldn’t produce any points during the last three minutes of the first quarter.
