Lynetta Kizer added 11 points apiece for the Terrapins, and Alyssa Thomas scored 10. Alysha Womack scored 13


points forMonmouth. The Terrapins reeled off 22


straight points early in the first half to take a 24-2 lead and were never seriously threatened. Their defense spurred much of the run — they had 11 steals in the first half and 14 in the game. Maryland made its first 18


free throws, finishing 19 for 21. The Terrapins also used their size advantage to out- score the Hawks, 40-2, in the paint. Maryland is now 33-7 in


home openers, and 4-0 all time againstMonmouth. l DUKE 69, BYU 54: With


the host Blue Devils off to a slow start in their season opener, Karima Christmas took over. The senior forward scored 16 of Duke’s first 22 points to lead the No. 6 Blue Devils to a victory. “I just kept on thinking to


attack,” said Christmas, who led all scorers with 20 points and added eight rebounds. “Not settling for outside shots, just keep going in. Eventually you’ll get a call and go to the line and get an easy basket. It was important to be in attack mode.” l IOWA STATE 58, WEST-


ERN ILLINOIS 32: Kelsey Boltemadeall six of her three- point shots in scoring 25 points and the No. 20 Cy- clones pulled away in the sec- ond half to beat the visiting Bulldogs. Leading by only one late in


the first half and just 31-26 at the break, Iowa State began the second half with a 26-4 burst to take control in the season opener. l BAYLOR 93, MONTANA


STATE 56:Melissa Jones had 17 points and 11 rebounds to lead six players in double fig- ures, and the second-ranked Lady Bears overcame a slow start to overwhelm the visit- ing Bobcats. Preseason all-American


Brittney Griner added 15 pointsandseven rebounds for Baylor (2-0), while Brooklyn Pope chipped in 14 points and eight boards. Baylor also got 11 points from Kimetria Hayden, 11 from Ashley Field and 10 from JordanMadden. Katie Bussey and Sarah


Balian led Montana State (0-2) with 12 points each. l OKLAHOMA 76, WIS-


CONSIN-MILWAUKEE 59: Danielle Robinson scored 16 of her 20 points in the second half to lead theNo. 10 Sooners to a victory over the host Panthers in the season opener for both teams. The Sooners were never


able to pull away from the scrappy Panthers until Robin- son turned a five-point lead with five minutes to play into a rout with a 14-4 run. She started the spurt with a jump- er and a three-pointer. Aaryn Ellenberg, a fresh-


man, added 14 points for the Sooners in their first opener on the road since playing at Tennessee to start the 2002- 03 season. l MICHIGAN STATE 90,


IPFW 62: Porsche Poole scored 12 points to lead a balanced attack for theNo. 25 Spartans in a season-opening victory over IPFW. Cetera Washington and


Lykendra Johnsoneachhad11 points for the Spartans. Kal- isha Keane, Jasmine Thomas andKelsey Smith all added 10, with Keane reaching 1,000 points in her four-year career. Michigan State led 22-13

Arenas has 30, but it isn’t enough


wizards from D1


but ultimately, the Washington Wizards were unable to avoid a 103-96 loss on Saturday atUnit- ed Center. Arenas scored a season-high


30 points on 11-of-22 shooting, looking more assertive than he had in first four games after coming back from a right ankle injury. He helped the Wizards pull back from a 17-point sec- ond-half deficit to pull within five points with 13 seconds re- maining. Arenas came through when the Wizards got limited production from starting for- wards Al Thornton and Andray Blatche, who combined to score just 10 points on 5-for-20 shoot- ing.


Wall’s first matchup against


fellow John Calipari product and 2008 No. 1 overall pick Derrick Rose was the primary story line as the night began. Before the game, Wall said he waslooking forwardto the chal- lenge. “He’s a talented point guard that reached all the ex- pectations I’m trying to get to, all-star, rookie of the year, all those things,”Wall said. Rose attacked Wall early on,


getting the first points of the game on a pull-up jumper, but he missed his next eight shots before eventually settling down. He finished with 24 points and eight assists. Wall had16 pointsandsix assists, the first time this season that he failed to get at least seven as- sists.Wall had a fewspectacular plays early on, including an impressive layup in which he split Rose, Luol Deng and Keith Bogans to get to the basket. He brought the Wizards within 97- 91 with a three-pointer in the closing seconds, but he lacked thesameburst before he left the game. Hilton Armstrong had a sea- son-high 10 rebounds and eight points, getting playing time in the closing minutes as JaVale McGee sat. JoakimNoah had 21 points and nine rebounds, while Luol Deng added 20 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists for the Bulls (5-3). KirkHinrich was announced


last during pregame introduc- tions and was greeted with a standing ovation from Bulls fans who remember him lead- ing the team to five playoff appearances in his first seven seasons in the league. During the first timeout of the game, the Bulls paid homage to Hin- rich by playing a video tribute, featuring images from his most memorable games. Hinrich tried not watch, but a few of a his teammates glanced at the video screen above the court. Hinrich sat on the scorers’ table and looked up after the video ended as fans again rose to give him an ovation. Hinrich was held scoreless


throughthe first half,anddidn’t make a field goal until he hit a three-pointer from the left cor- ner in the final period. He fin- ished with eight points. Arenas entered the game to a


chorus of boos with 4 minutes 14 seconds left in the first quar- ter. Itwasthe first time since his return that Arenas had received an overwhelmingly negative re-

action from the fans. Of course, it could’ve been because he was replacingHinrich. Arenas quickly attempted to


recover from his awful shooting performance against Charlotte the night before, when he missed 12 of his 14 field goal attempts. Arenas connected on three of his first four shots, giving the Wizards a 27-24 lead with a pull-up jumper to start the second period. Feeling con- fident in his legs, Arenas decid- ed to finally attack the basket, which led to some bad results, as he missed several attempts at the rim. Wall had similar struggles, as


he missed three layups, at one point hopping up and down in frustration. He helped tie the game at 35 with a fast-break layup, and later found McGee on an alley-oop dunk that brought every player on the bench out of his seat.Wallmade a soft toss and McGee yanked the ball in midair from Kyle Korver then dunked over him with authority to bring the Wiz- ards within one point. After a Bulls mini-rally, Yi hit


a three-pointer to bring his team within 46-42, the Bulls scored the last four points of the half, with Rose finding Corey Brewer cutting for a layup and then having a fast-break layup of his own. Young scored 11 points off the


bench. leem@washpost.com
