NCAA women: Ex-Flower Mound star Lauren Cox leads Baylor to 50-point win over Grambling State

WACO -- Lauren Cox had a career-high 30 points and 17 rebounds to lead four players in double figures, and second-seeded Baylor beat Grambling State 96-46 in the first round of the women's NCAA Tournament on Friday.

The Lady Bears (32-1) scored 17 of the game's first 18 points and were never challenged in picking up their 29th straight win. Cox tied the Lady Tigers' offensive output of 19 points in the first half by herself and tied for a team-high five assists.

The Lady Tigers went missed their first eight shots and went without a field goal until an Ariel Williams jumper with 3:30 to go in the first quarter.
