NORMAN, Oklahoma – The Sooners looked exactly how they should look against an NAIA opponent in their exhibition opener Thursday night, routing Oklahoma Christian 91-42.

Oklahoma forced an unheard-of 37 turnovers against the Lady Eagles and held them to 27 percent shooting in the game.

Preseason All-American Danielle Robinson had 19 points on 9-of-14 shooting and added six steals to lead the Sooners.

Three other Sooners scored in double figures and Jelena Cerina added nine points and nine rebounds.

Senior forward Carlee Roethlisberger did not play in the exhibition game due to an ankle sprain.

The Sooners will host Cameron University on Nov. 10 at the Lloyd Noble Center to finish out exhibition play.
