NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Peyton Little made three 3-pointers and scored 17 points, Vionise Pierre-Louis had her second career double-double with 14 points and 12 rebounds, and No. 16 Oklahoma held off Arkansas-Little Rock 68-58 on Wednesday night.
Little Rock pulled to 56-52 early in the fourth quarter on Sharde Collins's basket, but that's as close as the Trojans would get the rest of the way. T'ona Edwards scored four points during Oklahoma's 6-0 run to take a 10-point lead with 4:26 left. It was the first double-digit lead for either team.
Maddie Manning added nine points and five rebounds for Oklahoma (2-0).
Little scored 10 straight Oklahoma points — including back-to-back 3-pointers — to give the Sooners a 28-24 lead late in the second quarter. The Sooners had a 34-33 lead at halftime and it was 54-48 after three quarters.
Collins was 9-of-22 shooting for 23 points for Arkansas Little Rock (1-2). Kaitlyn Pratt added 10 points and Raeyana DeGray had eight points and seven rebounds.
