Penn State women's basketball dominated by No. 18 Ohio State

Coming off wins in three of its last four, Penn State had confidence heading into one of their toughest tests of the season against the 18th-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes.

This confidence, however, was short lived as the Buckeyes set the tone by jumping out to a 20-5 lead following their 14-0 run midway through the first quarter. The outcome was never in doubt from there, as Ohio State rolled to a 94-64 win.

There were few bright spots for the Lady Lions, as they headed into the second quarter with a 24-10 deficit.

Second quarter adjustments by coach Coquese Washington paid off with the Lady Lions going on a 10-2 run early on to cut the Buckeyes lead to 38-23.
