Doolittle is the lone senior on the Sooners’ roster and he showed his veteran leadership against Oregon State.
His 15-foot jumper before the buzzer gave the Sooners a 33-32 lead at intermission, as he scored his team’s final nine points of the first half. His 3-pointer put OU up 66-46 with 7:12 remaining in regulation.
His 16 rebounds bested his previous best of 15 against Iowa State during his freshman season.
“Doo had one of his better nights. Sixteen boards is outstanding,” Kruger said.
Doolittle also had four assists, which is just one from his personal best.
