The Aggies look to stop a 2-game skid tomorrow when they cross the Causeway to take on the Hornets.

CSUS comes in with a 3-game win streak, and its best start to the season since 2022-23. The Hornet women’s basketball team, like the both men’s team and the football team, remade its roster this year, with nine newcomers - a group that includes three D1 transfers, another from a prominent NAIA program, two community college players, and three freshmen. Three players average double figures, freshman Rubi Gray (13.7), junior transfer Natalie Picton (12.8), and senior Benthe Versteeg (10.7) provide support. Sacramento gets it done on the boards by committee with a quartet of players each grabbing about 5 rpg..

UCD counters with its four in double figures: Ryann Bennett (18.4), Nya Epps (13.6), Avery Sussex (11.6) and Megan Norris (10.8). Norris averages 9.8 rpg to lead the Aggies, followed by Tegan Young (4.6) and Sussex (4.0).

One area in which the Hornets are clearly superior so far is bench scoring, averaging about 30 per game, while the thin and young Aggie bench is contributing 11 ppg.
