WACO, Texas (AP) — Darianna Littlepage-Buggs had 26 points and 11 rebounds to help No. 7 Baylor rout Le Moyne 99-43 on Sunday.
Bella Fontleroy added 21 points for the Bears (4-0), and Auburn transfer Taliah Scott finished with 20 points and nine assists.
Littlepage-Buggs, Fontleroy and Scott became the first Baylor trio with 20 or more points in a single game since NaLyssa Smith, Queen Egbo and Hannah Gusters who did so versus Northwestern State on Dec. 18, 2020.
Peyton Dincher led Le Moyne (1-2) with 11 points, and Jessica Wangolo added eight.
Baylor was never threatened and was dominant down low, outscoring the Dolphins 50-14 in the paint. The Bears also made 56% of their shots.
They took a 13-point lead into the second quarter and stretched that to 50-19 by half. Le Moyne was held to six points on two field goal makes in that second quarter, which included a half-court heave at the buzzer from Wangolo.
That was Le Moyne’s only field goal in the final eight minutes of the first half as Baylor closed on a 21-4 run.
Littlepage-Buggs scored 15 of her points in the first quarter. She made her 12th straight shot early in the third.
