After winning its last two conference matchups, the Houston women’s basketball team recorded another one, cruising past Temple in a dominant 80-46 win.
“It was personal,” said freshman guard Laila Blair, who tallied a game-high 19 points.
A large part of the victory comes from the team’s emphasis on rebounding, as UH outdid its opponent in the category 61-36.
“The first thing we wanted to do was take care of rebounding,” head coach Ronald Hughey said. “When you talk about rebounding … It’s just hustle, it’s hard, it’s willing.”
The Cougars had four players that finished in the double-digits for points.
