Los Angeles – Kiki Rice had 17 points and nine rebounds and Lauren Betts added 16 points and 14 rebounds as No. 2 UCLA beat Indiana 92-48 on Sunday to extend its win streak to 19 games.
UCLA (25-1, 15-0 Big Ten), which is unbeaten since a loss to No. 4 Texas in November, has the third-longest active win streak in the nation behind North Dakota State (21 straight) and UConn (43).
Betts had her 10th double-double this season and the 43rd in her career. Charlisse Leger-Walker and Gianna Kneepkens had 12 points apiece for the Bruins and Gabriela Jaquez scored 11. Sienna Betts and Lena Bilic each had 10 points. As a team, the Bruins committed just four turnovers.
Maya Makalusky led Indiana (14-13, 3-12) with 13 points. Lenee Beaumont added 11 points on 4-of-14 shooting and Nevaeh Caffey scored 10. Shay Ciezki, the Big Ten’s leading scorer who went into the game averaging 24.0 points (No. 5 nationally), left the game due to an apparent ankle injury late in the first quarter and did not return.
The Hoosiers shot a season-low 31% (15 of 48) from the field, 4 of 20 (20%) from 3-point range, and tied their season low for points in a game. Indiana went into the game shooting 47.9% this season, which ranked 14th nationally.
UCLA grabbed a season-high 23 offensive boards, outrebounded the Hoosiers 51-24 overall, and outscored them 28-2 in second-chance points. The Bruins forced 13 by Indiana, which they converted into 25 points.
