No. 25 Washington bullies Rutgers on boards

Freshman Brynn McGaughy scored a game-high 17 points on 8-of-9 shooting, Yulia Grabovskaia grabbed a career-high 17 rebounds and No. 25 Washington trampled Rutgers 76-48 on Monday in Piscataway, N.J.

Avery Howell added 16 points, and both she and McGaughy had seven rebounds as the Huskies (16-4, 6-3 Big Ten) dominated the glass. They finished with a 51-30 rebounding advantage, with 18 offensive boards and a 36-14 edge in points in the paint.

In a game postponed from Sunday due to severe winter weather, Washington earned a double-digit advantage less than five minutes into the game and went up 43-20 by halftime thanks to late 3-pointers by Howell and Sayvia Sellers (11 points, six assists).

It marked Washington’s fourth straight win, while Rutgers (9-11, 1-8) has dropped nine of its last 11. Kaylah Ivey and Imani Lester finished with 14 points apiece and Lauryn Swann added 11 for the Scarlet Knights.
