The numbers just didn't give St. Ambrose a chance. Olivet Nazarene took nearly as many 3-pointers as SAU did field goals as the Tigers rolled to a 107-65 win in Lee Lohman Arena Monday night.

Olivet Nazarene (4-4, 2-0 CCAC) was 16-of-51 from beyond the arc as part of an overall 35-of-87 performance from the floor. St. Ambrose took only 54 total shots, making 24.

Turnovers proved costly against the high-pressure, up-tempo Tigers. The Bees committed 42 of them leading to 55 points. SAU only scored eight points off the 20 ONU turnovers.

St. Ambrose (1-5, 0-2 CCAC) was able to stay close early. After spotting Olivet Nazarene a quick 5-0 lead, Caroline Cool scored five straight points and Payton Calouette added a layup to put SAU in front 7-5.

The deficit was just 19-13 following an Olivia Harter jumper, but the Tigers closed the quarter with a 13-1 run to build a 32-14 advantage.

The Bees' defense allowed them to close the gap slightly to start the second period. Olivet Nazarene missed its first five shots and committed five turnovers over the first three-and-a-half minutes of the frame. An Erica Bostwick layup trimmed the deficit to 37-26 midway through the quarter. But St. Ambrose ended the half with another dry spell. Down just 40-28, SAU watched ONU go on a 15-4 run to build a 55-32 halftime lead.

The Bees didn't threaten in the second half.

Calouette led SAU with 16 points, on 7-of-12 shooting, eight rebounds and four steals. Bostwick came off the bench to contribute 11 points and five rebounds. Cole and Caitlyn Thole each scored 10 points to give St. Ambrose four players in double figures. Thole picked up six rebounds and four assists.

Isabella Hutchinson finished with seven points, Harter and Elly Doe had four apiece, and Kania Starks added three points. Mary Gruber and Emma Rutter did not score in the loss.

St. Ambrose will have more than a week off before returning to action on Dec. 4 in a non-conference battle at William Penn.
