Olivia Miles 2nd triple-double in row No. 8 TCU beats Jacksonville for 32nd
straight home win
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) --- Olivia Miles had 15 points, 11 rebounds and 10
assists for her second consecutive triple-double and No. 8 TCU stretched its
school-record home winning streak to 32 games with a 89-49 win over
Jacksonville on Sunday.
Miles now has her first two triple-doubles for TCU (11-0) and her eight overall
are the most for an active player. She had six in four seasons for Notre Dame,
including in back-to-back games last December.
The latest triple-double came eight days after Miles had 15 points, 10 rebounds
and 11 assists in a 95-40 win over UTEP. She also has at least 15 points and
five assists in all 11 games, an NCAA record at the start of a season.
Clara Silva had 21 points and 10 rebounds for the Horned Frogs, who had only a
seven-point lead before opening the second half with a 17-2 run. Marta Suarez
finished with 15 points.
Mychal White had 17 points, including 13 of 14 free throws, for Jacksonville
(7-2).
When TCU scored 14 consecutive points in a 4 1/2 minutes stretch midway through
the third quarter, Miles had a 3-pointer and a layup while assisting on three
of the other four baskets. The Frogs led 50-28 when Miles had a defensive
rebound and charged the other way, slinging a cross-court pass to Suarez for a
run-capping layup.
TCU's home winning streak matched No. 2 Texas for the longest active in the
nation.
