She added seven rebounds and three steals. Iwuala totaled 15 points and 11 rebounds for her fifth double-double this season.
Reserves Jayla Murray and Tianna Thompson scored 13 and 12, respectively for Ole Miss. Latasha Lattimore and reserve Kaitlin Peterson both scored 10.
Sydnei Marshall had 10 points to lead the Devilettes (1-9), who have lost six in a row and fall to 0-8 on the road.
Thompson had seven points and Iwuala scored five to power the Rebels to a 17-2 lead after one quarter. Marshall had the lone basket for the Devilettes, who went scoreless over the final 4:34 as Ole Miss put together a 14-0 run.
