Rice up 12-6 at the first time out. Getting some points off the quick transition.

Free internet broadcast. The A&MCC announcers say that the Rice players are fighting flu like symptoms. With only eight players, it could make for a tough night.

15-8 Rice after Q1. Idamarco with three threes.

Two steals for two quick baskets for Rice. 19-8 Rice.

36-20 at the half. Good first half for the women. Ogwumike has gotten the publicity early on, but Iademarco and Knight are playing really well this season too.

36 - 20 Rice at the half. Rice hit seven threes (7-17) in the first half and dominated all aspects of the game so far (except only 1-5 on free throws).

Unsung hero in first half was Grigsby: 9 minutes, 8 points (3-6 FG, 2-3 3s), 3 offensive rebounds.

... with the camera on a very shaky tripod/platform.

AMCC wins the 3rd quarter; lead is down to 12. Need to do the same or better in 4th and get out alive.

Good Q for A&MCC. Rice leads 53-41 after 3.

A&MCC cuts the lead to seven and then goes cold. 66-51 Rice with 2.5 min left.

Rice wins by 11. 8-2 on the season now.

Gabby Ozoude with way too many turnovers in the parts I was watching.

Rice a little sloppy at the end but holds on for a 67-56 win.

67-56 final. Good job ladies.

67-56 final. Rice wins

A road win is a road win, especially under the circumstances. Good effort, and still winning all the games they're supposed to win.

Good job Lady Owls. I did not understand why the center does now turn and drive to the basket sometimes. I guess it comes with experience.

At the moment, strategy includes running clock because the team is so short-handed.

There was an ESPN article a year back that said she only started playing basketball a couple years before college. But considering she is crazy athletic and can dunk, if she ever refines her game she could be really good.

Wow, what a story. And what an impressive young woman.
