No. 24 Florida State women take care of Wake Forest 85-61

Women's College Basketball, Florida State Seminoles, Wake Forest Demon Deacons

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Kiah Gillespie scored 12 of her 22 points in the first half when Florida State took control and the No. 24 Seminoles rolled to an 85-61 win over Wake Forest on Sunday.

Nicki Ekhomu added 17 points and Nausia Woolfolk had 14 as the Seminoles (19-3, 6-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) put five players in double figures.

Gina Conti tied her career high with 19 points for the Demon Deacons (10-12, 1-8), who had 12 of their 18 turnovers in the first half when they fell behind 44-25.

Florida State made 11 of 19 shots in the first quarter, racing to a 24-12 lead. Three different Seminoles had 3-point plays, including Ekhomu, who had eight points. Gillespie had eight points in the second quarter.

FSU erased any hope of a Wake Forest comeback by shooting 57 percent in the second half despite going 1 of 8 from 3-point range. Wake Forest shot 58 percent but was only 7 of 13 from the foul line, where it finished 11 of 20. The Demon Deacons were outrebounded for just the fourth time this season, 34-22, and lost 27 points after turnovers.
