Wanzer, who has now reached the 20-point mark in scoring seven times during her career, went 7-for-13 from the floor and was 6-of-11 from beyond the three-point arc. She also had three rebounds, three assists and a steal.

Casey, meanwhile, had six points, seven rebounds and three steals to go along with her record number of assists. She was making her third consecutive start.

Also reaching double figures in scoring was redshirt sophomore guard Jadyn Weltz with 12 points and freshman guard Bella Pucci with a career-high 11 points. Weltz added four rebounds and a pair of assists while Pucci also recorded her career highs in both assists (three) and steals (three).
