EUGENE, Ore. (AP) – Oti Gildon had career highs of 20 points and 12 rebounds, and Satou Sabally added 18 points to help No. 10 Oregon roll to an 87-45 victory over Hampton on Tuesday night.

Gildon, a junior making her first start in 74 games, replaced Ruthy Hebard in the lineup for the Ducks (6-1). Hebard, Oregon’s second-leading scorer, sat out the game with a protective boot on her right foot.

Sabrina Ionescu also had a double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds, and Lexi Bandon had 11 points.

Allina Starr led the Pirates (2-4) with 12 points and Mikayla Sayle had 10.

The Ducks finished the second quarter on a 15-1 run to lead 43-18 at the break as the Pirates missed their last 10 shots before the half. Hampton was 1 of 16 from 3-point range at halftime and 3 of 26 for the game.
