AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -- Sophomore Jordan Lee scored a career-best 21 points and No. 4 Texas opened its season with a 123-51 win against Incarnate Word on Monday night.

The Longhorns scored 27 straight points in the first quarter on the way to their 25th consecutive win at home. The 72-point win matched the margin of victory in last season's first game against Southeast Missouri State.

Lee hit 9 of 14 shots, making three 3-pointers.

Madison Booker, the Southeastern Conference player of the year last season, added 18 points.

Freshman Aaliyah Crump and Bryanna Preston each scored 16.

Texas shot 65.4% from the field and converted 7 of 17 3-point shots (41.2%), perhaps an important development. The Longhorns hope for more production and efficiency in that area than last season, when they ranked 350th in 3-point attempts per game (10.4), 347th in 3-point baskets (3.1) and 224th in accuracy (30.1%).

Destiny Whitaker led Incarnate Word with 14 points, and Gwendlyn McGrew scored 12.

The Cardinals shot just 27.7%, missed 14 of 17 3-pointers, and committed 25 turnovers. Thirteen of the turnovers were steals by Texas. Rori Harmon led the Longhorns with three of those.

Texas used its size advantage to create a 46-23 rebounding advantage. The Longhorns turned 14 offensive rebounds into 25 points.
