NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Raegan Beers delivered a spectacular performance, scoring a career-high 30 points and grabbing 14 rebounds to lead the 16th-ranked Oklahoma Sooners to a dominant victory. The win, which saw Oklahoma surge past their opponent in front of a jubilant home crowd, was highlighted by Beers’ career-best display in both scoring and rebounding, making her a key factor in the Sooners’ success.

 

Beers was efficient on the floor, converting 11 of her 13 field-goal attempts, an impressive 84.6% shooting percentage. Her performance on both ends of the court was nothing short of spectacular, as she was a constant presence in the paint and helped her team dominate the boards throughout the game. Her 14 rebounds marked a season-high and proved pivotal in Oklahoma’s ability to control the tempo and possession of the ball, keeping their opponents at bay.

 

The game started with high intensity as both teams looked to establish control early. Oklahoma, however, quickly found their rhythm, relying heavily on Beers’ scoring ability. She opened the scoring with an early basket and continued to build momentum, adding points in a variety of ways, including jump shots, layups, and putbacks off offensive rebounds. Beers’ versatility on offense allowed the Sooners to remain ahead as they built a comfortable lead by halftime.

 

As the game wore on, Beers’ presence only grew stronger. Her ability to find open spaces in the defense allowed her to capitalize on easy scoring opportunities, and her relentless effort on the boards ensured that Oklahoma’s offense could continue flowing. In a pivotal third quarter, Beers scored 12 of her 30 points, helping the Sooners pull away and make a statement in the contest.

 

The opposing team struggled to match Oklahoma’s energy, unable to contain Beers, who was everywhere on the court. Whether it was securing an offensive rebound or finishing an easy shot at the basket, Beers proved to be the most dominant player on the floor. Her 30-point outing was the highest by a Sooner this season, a testament to her growth and importance to the team’s success.

 

Oklahoma’s defense was also a key factor in the win. While Beers was providing the offensive fireworks, the Sooners’ defense limited their opponent to low-percentage shots, suffocating the offensive flow and forcing turnovers. The defense’s effort allowed Oklahoma to increase their lead, further highlighting the team’s strength on both ends of the court.

 

In addition to Beers’ standout performance, other players contributed significantly to the victory. The Sooners showed depth, with multiple players stepping up to support the team. However, it was Beers who was undoubtedly the standout, earning praise from both her teammates and head coach after the game.

 

Head coach Jennie Baranczyk lauded Beers for her tremendous effort, noting her improved consistency and leadership on the floor. “Raegan was simply incredible tonight,” Baranczyk said. “Her scoring and rebounding were key for us, but more than that, her energy and focus set the tone for the entire team.”

 

The win moves Oklahoma to an impressive record, continuing their push toward securing a high seed in the upcoming postseason. With Beers playing at an elite level, the Sooners look poised for a deep run in March. As the season progresses, Oklahoma will continue to rely on Beers’ all-around performances as they aim for a spot at the top of the national rankings.

 

In a game that will be remembered for Beers’ remarkable performance, the 16th-ranked Oklahoma Sooners showcased their potential as one of the top teams in the nation, solidifying their place as a serious contender this season.
