SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. (AP) -- Peppi Browne scored 14 points to lead Duke (No. 18 ESPN/USA Today, No. 20 AP) to its seventh straight win, 66-52 over Seton Hall on Saturday. Krista Gingrich and Lauren Rice each added 10 for the Blue Devils, who improved to 8-1. Duke, trailing 4-2, scored nine straight points, including seven by Browne, to take an 11-4 lead it never relinquished. Seton Hall (3-4), which shot just 23 percent in the first half and 36 percent for the game, rallied to pull within 21-11 later in the first half. But Duke responded with an 11-3 run that allowed it to take a 32-14 lead at halftime. The Blue Devils opened the second half in a press and outscored Seton Hall, 9-2, to take a 41-16 lead. Duke built its lead to 46-18 before coach Gail Goestenkors started playing her reserves. Susan Murray and Naimah Smiyh each scored 11 for Seton Hall. | ALSO SEE Womens College Basketball Scoreboard
