Hartford — Stefanie Dolson recorded the second triple-double in UConn women's basketball history with a career-high 26 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists, as the top-ranked Huskies ran away from Oregon 114-68 on Wednesday night.

Breanna Stewart had 28 points and eight rebounds and Bria Hartley added 17 points, six rebounds and six assists for UConn (5-0).

Freshman Chrishae Rowe had 27 for Oregon (2-2), just over her season average.

The Huskies never trailed. They used a 13-2 run to open an early 18-point lead and ran away from there.

Oregon coach Paul Westhead had his run-and-gun team averaging almost 110 points per game this season. But the Huskies held the Ducks to 31 percent shooting, blocked 12 shots and outscored Oregon in the paint 64-28.

The only other triple-double in UConn history was recorded by Laura Lishness in 1989.
