Lauren Betts Erupts for UCLA in March Madness

Luckily for the Bruins, Lauren Betts, the women's team's pillar, similar to Tyler Bilodeau on the men's team, was able to silence any doubt with a game for the ages, and UCLA could be heading for a championship if she continues to play anything like she did against the Cowgirls.

A Career Game Against Oklahoma State: Points

• While it is average for Betts to put up double digits, even getting above 20 points on many occasions, she decided she was not going to hold back at all and dropped 35 points on the Cowgirls.

• She only spent 34 minutes on the court, so her average points per minute was above one, and she didn't even attempt one shot from beyond the arc, only scoring two-pointers.

• She also only had seven free throws to work with, making five of her attempts, when she could normally get much more, so it could have easily been possible for her to drop 40.

• Her being a beast in the paint means great things for UCLA going into the Sweet Sixteen, as she can be the consistency the team will need if they have an off night.

A Career Game Against Oklahoma State: Rebounds and Assists

• While she was busy making 15 out of her 19 shots, Betts was also finding a way to crash the glass, getting nine rebounds on the night to help seal the Cowgirls' fate.

• She had the most rebounds among both teams and was a machine, scoring many of her own points and helping her teammates find their own looks.

• This is because she had five assists on the night on top of her own 35 points, meaning that she indirectly scored over 45 on the night, something that should be nerve-racking for their next opponent, the Minnesota Golden Gophers.

Overall, Lauren Betts had a game for the ages against Oklahoma State, and she looks to be the momentum the team will need going into their tougher rounds and their almost inevitable clash with other one seeds.
