Lala Woods hits six triples, finishes with 21 points
ORONO, Maine — The University of Maine women's basketball team led Big Ten opponent Oregon for much of Friday night's game at Memorial Gymnasium, but the Ducks pulled away in the fourth quarter for a 79–72 win in front of a sold out crowd of 1,507.
Lala Woods led Maine with 21 points, making six three-pointers. Maddie Fitzpatrick added 19 points, nine rebounds and five assists, while Olivia Alvarez, Breen and Price scored nine apiece. The Black Bears shot 14-of-30 from beyond the arc, 25-of-61 overall from the floor (41.0) and outrebounded the Ducks 38–31.
Maine (2–1) built an eight-point lead after the first quarter and stretched its advantage to 11 in the second. The Black Bears took a 33–27 lead into halftime, fueled by timely three-point shooting and a defense that held Oregon to 11 points in the opening period.
The teams traded baskets through a high-scoring third quarter. Maine carried a 57–54 lead into the fourth, but Oregon (4–1) moved ahead early in the period and extended its margin to 12 with 2:29 remaining. The Black Bears kept fighting. Bailey Breen scored twice inside, and Abby Price hit a three-pointer to cut the deficit to five with 25 seconds left. Oregon made two late free throws to seal the result. The Ducks outscored Maine 25-15 in the final quarter.
In the first meeting between the programs, Maine held the lead for nearly 25 minutes.
The Black Bears return to action on Sunday at home when they host Brown at 1 p.m.
