Baylor makes Sweet 16 for 10th consecutive year with win over Michigan

WACO, Texas (AP) -- Lauren Cox had 18 points with 16 rebounds, and Baylor is going to the NCAA Sweet 16 for the 10th year in a row after an 80-58 win over Michigan on Sunday night.

The Big 12 champion Lady Bears (33-1) finally put Michigan away by scoring 13 consecutive points in the third quarter. They led 57-41 on a driving layup by Kalani Brown that capped the 4 1/2-minute spurt.

Baylor, the No. 2 seed, takes a 30-game winning streak into its Lexington Regional semifinal game next Friday against Oregon State, which beat the Lady Bears in the Elite Eight two years ago.
