11/23/18 | Women's Basketball
MORAGA, Calif. – The No. 3 Oregon women's basketball team opened the Saint Mary's Thanksgiving Classic with a 94-44 win over UC Riverside on Friday afternoon at McKeon Pavilion.
The Ducks (5-0) shot 60.7 percent from the floor and 46.7 percent from three while converting 16 UC Riverside turnovers in 31 points.
HOW IT HAPPENED: Oregon opened the game on 9-0 run, keyed by a smothering blocked shot by Erin Boley and a steal and score by Satou Sabally. The Ducks led UC Riverside, 23-11, at the end of the first. Oregon shot 56.3 percent from the floor in the opening 10 minutes while Sabally had a team-high seven points.
The Ducks started the second quarter on a 12-0 run, including a pair of three-pointers by Sabrina Ionescu and a pair of Ruthy Hebard jumpers. At one point in the second quarter, Hebard had 16 points while the Ducks were leading UC Riverside, 48-16. Oregon eventually took a 52-18 lead into the halftime break, with Hebard's 16 points and Ionescu's 11 points leading the way. Oregon was 22-of-36 (61.1 percent) shooting in the first half, including 6-of-15 from three.
The Ducks opened the third on another run, this time 8-0, featuring a pair of Sabally three-pointers.
