If star freshman guard Olivia Olson's debut says anything about her future with the program, her star is shining brightly.

Olson helped lead the Michigan women's basketball team to an 81-52 exhibition rout of Northwood on Sunday.

The former McDonald's All-American netted a double-double in her debut, scoring 22 points and securing 10 rebounds during the win.

The Wolverines cruised throughout the game and utilized a strong second half to blow the game wide open after taking a 43-30 lead into the half.

Stretching the lead to 62-44 after the third quarter, the Wolverines' defense took over in the fourth quarter, seeing Northwood score only 8 points while the Wolverines' offense was flowing.

Olson wasn't the only freshman to make an impact in the game either, as fellow McDonald's All-American game nominee Mila Holloway, a guard, added 15 points and 6 rebounds for the Wolverines.

The Wolverines had 10 players score in the winning effort.
