AUSTIN (AP) - Heather Schreiber's career-high 25 points led No. 22 Texas to a 87-66 victory over Ohio on Saturday.
Texas (8-2) led 42-25 at halftime, but forward Lori Moorman's 21 second-half points helped Ohio (5-6) get back in the game.
Moorman, who had only one point at halftime, scored nine in a 12-2 run that brought Ohio to 60-50 with about eight minutes left.
The teams traded baskets until a Texas surge put the game away.
Schreiber had a 3-pointer and three-point play between two layups by Tracy Cook, and the Longhorns stretched their edge to 81-62 with 1:36 remaining.
Cathy Szall added 14 points for Ohio.
Cook had 16 points for Texas, while Stacy Stephens had 12 points and 12 rebounds for her third double-double this season.
Texas shot a season-best 54.4 percent (31-of-57) from the field, while the Longhorns limited Ohio to 41.7 percent (25-of-60).
