Aijha Blackwell had 15 points and 10 rebounds for her third double-double of the season, leading five players in double-figure scoring for sixth-ranked Baylor, which beat Houston 87-58 on Saturday to stretch its season-opening winning streak to 14 games in a row. The only better for the Bears was their 2012 national championship team with Brittney Griner that had a perfect 40-0 record. Sarah Andrews and Darianna Littlepage-Buggs scored 14 each for the Bears, who shot 57.1% overall from the field

Sarah Andrews and Darianna Littlepage-Buggs scored 14 each for the Bears, who shot 57.1% overall from the field (32 of 56) and 8-of-19 from 3-point range while improving to 3-0 in Big 12 play.
This is the kind of advantage coach Scott Drew and Baylor have long waited to have on their home court. “This one's unique,” Drew said. Ja’Kobe Walter scored 23 points and had a team-high nine rebounds, fellow freshman Yves Missi added 16 points while making all eight of his shots, and the 18th-ranked Bears christened the brand-new, smaller and much louder Foster Pavilion with a 98-79 victory over Cornell on Tuesday night.
