UConn's next opponent -
The Sooners return 2018 Big 12 Freshman of the Year Shaina Pellington along with All-Big 12 selection Ana Llanusa from last year’s squad. Pellington averaged 13.1 points per game and ranked second nationally among Division I freshman with a .492 field goal percentage. Llanusa averaged 12.6 points per contest and hit 46 3-pointers during the 2017-18 season. Both players were also picked to the Big 12 All-Freshmen Team.
Oklahoma appeared in its 19th straight NCAA Tournament last season, a run that ranks as the fifth-longest active streak in Division I. OU is just one of nine Division I men’s or women’s basketball teams in the nation to make every NCAA Tournament since 2000. OU has played and lost to two top 25 teams to date, #21 So. Florida 87-70, and #20 DePaul 87-76. The Huskies should win this one easily, and provide lots playing time for the reserves.
Dec 9 - OU's Shaina Pellington and Taylor Robertson each scored 19 points, while Madi Williams poured in 18 but it would not be enough as Oklahoma fell to No. 20/17 DePaul, 87-76, inside Lloyd Noble Center on Sunday.
The Sooners (3-6) trailed by 23 points heading into the second half, but put together a furious comeback effort in the third quarter. OU outscored DePaul (7-3) by a 32-17 margin in the third quarter as Pellington and Robertson combined for 23 points in the frame. The Sooners posted a .765 (13-of-17) field goal percentage in the third quarter, its best shooting percentage in a quarter in program history.
