McCray leads Kansas to victory in a shootout

No one wanted to forget about defense. But there really wasn't a choice.The regular season opener at Allen Fieldhouse swiveled heads of fans back and forth like a seesaw on loose hinges.
The Jayhawks opened their 2009-10 regular season on Sunday, Nov.15 against Oral Roberts. Behind 27 points from senior guard Danielle McCray and 24 points from sophomore forward Aishah Sutherland Kansas defeated Oral Roberts 106-80.
The game was a contest of who could get to the hoop faster. There were 28 total points scored in the first four minutes of the game, 16 by Kansas.
"It ended up being a possession game," coach Bonnie Henrickson said. "Both teams were back and forth."
Janae Voelker led Oral Roberts with 29 points and nine rebounds. Freshman guard Kevi Luper surprised everyone but her coach, finishing with 24 points.
Oral Roberts seemed to get a shot off in under five seconds on nearly every possession. Oral Roberts trailed by a 22-point halftime deficit.
Defensively, Oral Roberts played a 3-2 zone for most of the game. The formation
hassled Kansas' point guards into turnovers and hesitation.
"Them being spread out kinda messed with us," freshman guard Angel Goodrich said.
But Kansas' offensive proved to be too much for Oral Roberts.
Senior guard Danielle McCray earned a double-double, finishing the game with 27 points,11 rebounds and seven assists.
"Coach challenged me today for getting on the boards," McCray said. "That really helped me get going."
The shallow coverage in the post enabled sophomore forward Aishah Sutherland and junior center Krysten Boogaard to draw fouls and convert easy shots.
Together, the two players finished with 43 points, 18 rebounds and five blocks.
Oral Roberts opened the second half on a 14-6 run and threatened a comeback by throwing Goodrich out of sync and consistently finding Voelker and Luper for buckets with extra passes in the paint.
"We've got to find something inside of us to be better out of the gate," Henrickson said.
But after a timeout, Kansas forced a five-second violation on an attempted inbound pass and a backcourt violation.
With 12 minutes to go and the lead at 21, Kevi Luper fell to the ground and was called for a travel.
