Match Info

The Women's National Collegiate Athletic Association regular season concluded with a significant clash as the UC Davis Women hosted the UC Riverside Women at the University Credit Union Center. The Aggies secured a solid 70-59 victory in a hard-fought contest that underscored their defensive prowess heading into the postseason. This win solidified UC Davis's position near the top of the Big West Conference standings, providing crucial momentum. The match was defined by a strong start from the home side, who established an early double-digit lead through efficient ball movement and perimeter shooting. UC Riverside fought back valiantly in the second and third quarters, chipping away at the deficit with aggressive drives to the basket. However, every time the Highlanders threatened to draw level, UC Davis responded with a key basket, often from beyond the arc, to maintain control. The decisive run came midway through the final period when the Aggies strung together three consecutive defensive stops, converting them into fast-break points to extend their lead to an insurmountable 15 points. The standout performance came from the Aggies' senior guard, who orchestrated the offense with a double-double, scoring 18 points and dishing out 10 assists while committing only one turnover. The victory was a testament to UC Davis's disciplined system, as they forced 18 turnovers and limited UC Riverside's second-chance opportunities. For the Highlanders, the loss was a tough end to the regular season, though their leading scorer put in a heroic effort with 22 points. The result sees UC Davis finish the conference slate with an impressive record, while UC Riverside will look to regroup for the upcoming conference tournament. Post-game, the UC Davis coach praised her team's resilience, stating, "We knew they'd make a run, but our leaders stepped up and made the plays we needed to close it out." The UC Riverside coach acknowledged the challenge, saying, "Credit to Davis, they executed down the stretch. We have to be tougher with the ball and learn from this."
