Buckeyes end Sooners' 23-game winning streak

Jessica Davenport scores 14 points, adds 10 boards in matchup of top centers

By Jeff Latzke

Associated Press

NORMAN, OKLA. - Jessica Davenport made Courtney Paris work for her 38th consecutive double-double. She wouldn't let her escape with the win, too.
Marscilla Packer scored 15 points, and Davenport added 14 points and 10 rebounds to lead No. 8 Ohio State to a 74-67 victory over No. 3 Oklahoma on Wednesday night in a matchup of two of the country's best centers.
The Buckeyes (10-1) overcame Paris' 22 points and 13 rebounds to end a 23-gameregular-season winning streak for the Sooners (9-1) that was the longest in the country.

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH


NORMAN, Okla. ? The push arrived on schedule last night in the Lloyd Noble Center just as it had 10 days before in Baton Rouge, La.
Third-ranked and unbeaten Oklahoma had scored the first 10 points of the second half and a raucous crowd of 11,411 was screaming for buckets of Buckeye blood. This time, the eighth-ranked Ohio State women?s basketball team didn?t faint or flinch. Instead, the Buckeyes dug deeper and pulled out a 74-67 victory over the Sooners that was the polar opposite of what happened during the humiliating 24-point loss at Louisiana State.

I was hoping that there would be a thread addressing such a fantastic accomplishment for our Lady Bucks and their win last night.

What an awesome win for Coach Foster and the team! :osu: I watched the last half and was very impressed with our shooters coming up with big shot after big shot...Mega Cograts!!! :biggrin:


:oh: :io:

...He is a great coach and great recruiter; however, my question is - will he ever win the big game?.... Or even get to the finals? He seems to win a lot, but never in the big game?

I am not bashing Foster at all and feel he should coach here as long as he wants, but if you look at his overall record he seems to lose in the big games. Kind of like John Cooper did.


What are your thoughts?

You spoke a little too soon... he won a pretty big one this weekend. :wink: Now the challenge will be for him to build off this great win.

In the place where memories begin, the day the talent scout discovered a 3-year-old Ashlee Lauren Trebilcock cavorting in a Boise, Idaho, mall remains a flickering image. Sixteen years later, Trebilcock stopped on the way to practice with the Ohio State women?s basketball team to recount the tale again. She couldn?t suppress a laugh.

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

At times, the Oklahoma defense paid less attention to Ohio State freshman point guard Maria Moeller than a teenager would a preschooler with a burning question and two hands raised. The Sooners? strategy Dec. 20 in Norman was more dare than disdain. They wanted Moeller to shoot the basketball so they could continue to double-team the primary offensive threats of the seventh-ranked Buckeyes (10-1).

Parker knocks down two key field goals to put Iowa in hole

IOWA CITY, Iowa ? For one half yesterday afternoon in Carver-Hawkeye Arena, the Iowa women?s basketball team blanketed Ohio State in a zone that appeared harder for the Buckeyes to negotiate than a plan for world peace. In the thick of this defensive thicket, junior guard Marscilla Packer probably was the only OSU player with a smile on her face at halftime.

College women's basketball: Ohio State beats Iowa
Monday, January 1, 2007

Ohio State's Jessica Davenport had another big game at Iowa to stave off the Hawkeyes' upset bid. The senior center scored 24 points on 9-of-13 shooting and collected 11 rebounds to lead seventh-ranked Ohio State to a 73-67 victory Sunday, one year after torching Iowa for 34 points, 16 rebounds, and six assists in the same arena. Marscilla Packer added 23 for the Buckeyes, who rallied in the second half on 67 percent shooting. Ohio State trailed 32-31 at halftime of its Big Ten opener, but Davenport scored 16 points after the break and the Buckeyes outlasted Iowa.
