ATHENS, Ga.: Jenna Staiti scored 16 points, Reigan Richardson added 13 and No. 17 Georgia cruised to an 82-45 win over Saint Francis (PA) on Sunday.

The Bulldogs (10-1) never trailed, steadily building a 47-30 halftime lead. They made 6 of 9 3-pointers and shot 19 of 33 (58%) overall.

A 13-2 run to close the third quarter made it 64-36. The Bulldogs finished 8 of 15 from distance and 34 of 64 overall.

Saint Francis (0-10) shot 38.5%, going 2 of 12 from 3-point range, and had 21 turnovers. Jordan McLemore led the Red Flash with 10 points.
