OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. - Third ranked Oklahoma City handed Rogers State its second straight loss with a decisive 90-41 victory Thursday night at Abe Lemons Arena in Oklahoma City, Okla.
 

The Stars exploded for a 19-1 run on a flurry of 3-point baskets early in the first half. Chelsea Ledbetter buried three treys during the run as OCU jumped out to a 26 point lead at the half.  The Hillcats were held to just seven first half field goals and were unable to slow the Stars hot shooting.
 

OCU opened the second half on a 7-0 run and continued to attack with its defense. The Stars scored 30 points off 21 RSU turnovers to close out a 49-point victory. It marked the largest margin of defeat in the two-year history of RSU women's basketball.
