NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Sahara Williams had 21 points, 10 rebounds and a career-high 10 assists, the fifth triple-double in program history, and No. 14 Oklahoma beat Oral Roberts 93-62 on Friday.
Williams added five of Oklahoma's season-high 16 steals.
Brooklyn Stewart made 5 of 8 from the field and finished with 18 points and three blocks, and 6-foot-3 freshman LeeLee Bell added 16 points and 11 rebounds — her third double-double this season — for Oklahoma (4-0). Jordan Speiser scored 15 points.
