COLUMBUS, Ohio -- It has been a while since Ohio State redshirt junior forward Stephanie Mavunga had played in real game. She nearly forgot how much the game had changed since she last played for North Carolina in the 2014-15 season.Still, she managed to score 15 points and grab 14 rebounds to help the No. 7 Buckeyes beat Duquesne 89-69 on Friday in the opener for both teams.Last season the womens game switched from two, 20-minute halves to four, 10-minute quarters. Mavunga was first team All-ACC for the Tar Heels before she sat last season per NCAA transfer rules.I remember asking my teammates, `We play quarters? Mavunga said. Even though I watched it last year, its different when you actually got on there and played quarters. That was a little change I wasnt used to.She was one of four Buckeyes in double-figure scoring. All-American guard Kelsey Mitchell managed 18 points; Sierra Calhoun had 13 points and Shayla Cooper 12.Calhoun last played 13 games for Duke in 2014-15.

Duquesne went on a 12-2 run to make it 57-41 before OSU pulled away.I hate to say this, theres no moral victories, but to be only 20 down to a team of that caliber with such youth that we have, Im not overly disappointed, Duquesne coach Dan Burt said.ON THE BOARDSOhio State held a wide margin in rebounds, 55-33, including 23 offensive boards. The Buckeyes had 22 second-chance points compared to nine for the Dukes. We made plenty of mistakes, but we played hard, McGuff said. We rebounded, so we limited their ability to get second shots.QUOTABLEWhen you graduate a backcourt like we had graduate and we literally had one guard with experience, youre always going to be concerned when you play a possible Final Four team, Burt said.TIP-INSDuquesne: The Dukes are 24-20 in season openers. .
