As this team is won't to do, they came out flying after halftime and quickly pushed the lead up to 20 points.
Two things here - 1) the statement of this game has been "Okay, you want to double down on Lauren, we can kill you from outside, thank you very much" and Leger-Walker, fully up to speed now, has morphed from a pass first PG and become also a serious scorer.
After Q3 UCLA now leads #12 Maryland 73-47
Bruins are also riding their continuing dominance on the Boards 38-17
and scorching the nets from three point range now hitting on 11-20 while shooting 62% overall.
Bruins had only 3TOs in that quarter so the halftime got that problem ironed out.
UCLA's big three scoring are Leger-Walker (17), Kneepkens and Jaquez (16 each). Lauren Betts has 11.
L-W has 9 RBs to lead the team
