The Syracuse University women's basketball team (3-0) stayed unbeaten Wednesday night, cruising past in-state foe Siena (1-3) 82-58 at the JMA Wireless Dome.
Syracuse took a 19-17 lead over Siena after the first quarter, knocking down seven of its 13 shots (53.8 percent). Tyi Skinner opened the scoring with a 3-pointer off a Keira Scott assist, and Sarah Rambus followed with a layup to give the Orange a 5-0 lead before the Saints scored their first points at the 7:30 mark.
With three minutes to play in the second quarter, the Orange went on a 14-5 run to end the first half, ignited by a Rambus layup off a Madison Howard assist, giving Syracuse a 12-point advantage heading into the locker room. Syracuse forced 10 Siena turnovers in the first frame, turning those into 13 points at the other end.
Syracuse took a 63-48 lead over Siena into the fourth quarter, outscoring the Saints 18-15 in the third and pushing its advantage as high as 19 points late in the period.
Emely Rodriguez opened the quarter with a 3-pointer to put the Orange up 48-33. Izoje followed with a fast-break layup off a Keira Scott assist and a putback of her own miss to make it 52-36. Mid third quarter, the Orange went on a 6-0 run over 1:16, with Jaleesa Molina and Rodriguez trading fast-break layups off Siena turnovers to make it 61-42 with 2 minutes left.
The Orange opened the final frame on a 7-0 run, highlighted by an Izoje three-point play, followed by a dish to Howard on the next possession. Syracuse turned a 15-point lead into a 23-point lead on the early-quarter run and Siena never got within 20 the rest of the way. Izoje scored nine of the Orange's 19 points in the quarter, and her jumper with five minutes left pushed the lead to 25, the largest of the quarter.Â
Syracuse outscored Siena 42-26 in the paint and forced 22 Saint turnovers, turning those into 35 points. Transition was also key for the Orange, scoring 17 points on fast breaks to Siena's nine, while the bench outscored the Saints' reserves 24-15.
