NORFOLK, Va. — The Old Dominion women's basketball team drained a program-record 14 three-pointers and scored the most points in a conference game since 2004 in a 95-68 win over FIU on Saturday afternoon at the Ted Constant Center.

The record-breaking performance from beyond the arc comes just one game after Old Dominion (11-5, 2-2) tied the school record with 13 threes against Florida Atlantic on Thursday. ODU also set season highs in FG percentage (58.7%), 3PT percentage (51.9%) and assists (22).

The Monarchs led FIU (3-14, 0-4) by a score of 28-13 at the end of the first quarter and extended the lead to 53-30 at the half. The Panthers briefly cut the lead 18 early in the third quarter, but ODU would lead by 20+ for a majority of the second half.

Victoria Morris led six Monarchs in double figures with 20 points, her second consecutive 20+ scoring game. Taylor Edwards, Aziah Hudson and Ajah Wayne all finished with 11 points, while Maggie Robinsonand Amari Young each added 10. Hannah Sadler also had a career-high seven points off the bench. Up next, the Monarchs head south for a C-USA road trip at LA Tech and Southern Miss next weekend.
