Oregon’s Endyia Rogers had 19 points, six assists and three steals against her former team
EUGENE, Ore. — Endyia Rogers had 19 points, six assists and three steals against her former team and Taya Hanson had season highs with 17 points and five made 3-pointers to help the No. 17 Oregon women’s basketball team beat USC 73-45 Sunday.
Oregon had lost back-to-back games, falling 84-67 to No. 3 Ohio State at the San Diego Invitational on Dec. 21 before an 82-74 loss against No. 10 UCLA on Friday but bounced back with a convincing win that stretched its win streak against the Trojans to 13 games. The Ducks led by double figures for the final 31 minutes, 44 seconds and limited USC to season lows for points and field-goal percentage . Oregon scored 21 points off 20 Trojans turnovers.
Rogers scored eight points before Hanson’s first 3-pointer of the game gave Oregon a 19-8 lead at the end of the first quarter. Te-Hina Paopao and Chance Gray made back-to-back baskets to open the second quarter before Taylor Bigby hit a 3-pointer with 8:25 left in the second that snapped the Trojans’ scoring drought of 5-plus minutes.
Gray finished with 14 points and Phillipina Kyei added six points, 20 rebounds, three assists and four blocks for Oregon. Kyei, who has grabbed double-digit rebounds in six consecutive games and nine of the last 10, became the first Ducks player with at least 20 rebounds in a game since Jillian Alleyne grabbed 21 in a win over Arizona State in January of 2016.
