EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — Syla Swords had 18 points and seven rebounds as No. 6 Michigan outlasted Oregon 92-87 in double overtime Monday night.
Olivia Olson and Ashley Sofilkanich each scored 16 for the Wolverines (11-1, 2-0 Big Ten), while Te’Yala Delfosse added 14 points and nine rebounds. Michigan made only 16 of 38 free throws and committed 26 turnovers but outrebounded the Ducks 60-34.
Katie Fiso had 24 points and seven rebounds to pace the Ducks (12-3, 0-2), whose other conference loss came against fourth-ranked UCLA. Mia Jacobs added 16 points and Ari Long scored 14 for Oregon, which committed 23 turnovers.
Swords opened the second overtime with a 3-pointer before Sofilkanich added a free throw. Macy Brown got a steal and layup to put the Wolverines ahead 82-76 with 3:06 left.
Fiso converted a three-point play for the Ducks, but Olson hit two free throws and Delfosse added a bucket for Michigan.
