PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Calli Jackson scored 15 points as No. 1 Oregon City routed No. 6 Franklin 76-42 Wednesday in the quarterfinals of the OSAA Class 6A state girls basketball tournament at the Chiles Center.

Oregon City (22-2) moves into Friday's semifinals, where the Pioneers play Central Catholic, a 64-52 winner over Tualatin. The Pioneers, last year's Class 6A runner-up, have won 10 state girls basketball championships, but none since 2004.

Franklin shot a Class 6A tournament-record 27 3-pointers, while Oregon City attempted 16. The two teams combined for 60 turnovers.

Oregon City scored the game's first nine points and never looked back. Franklin (21-4) got as close as 38-29 early during the third quarter, but the Pioneers outscored the Quakers 38-13 the rest of the game.

Franklin's Shoni Schimmel, who hit 6 of 15 from 3-point range, led all scorers with 21 points.

In the first game of the night session, Kate Lanz scored 33 points to lead No. 4 Central Catholic to a 64-52 win over No. 8 Tualatin.

The Oregon State-bound Lanz, who hit 11 of 20 shots from the field, scored 25 points during the second half.

Central Catholic (22-6) advances to Fridays semifinals, where the Rams face the winner of a quarterfinal game between Oregon City and Franklin.

Central Catholic controlled the game from the outset, leading 24-13 at halftime.

Tualatin rallied shortly after the break, closing to within 33-29 before the Rams widened their lead to eight points by the end of the third quarter. Central Catholic put the game away with an 11-3 run to start the fourth quarter.

Emily Ben-Jumbo scored 17 points, 16 during the second half, to lead Tualatin (17-7).
