Hoping to extend their short winning streak, Coach Jen Gross’ Aggies host the Matadors Thursday night at UCCP. The Ags continue to be led by Ryann Bennett (15.4) ppg, Megan Norris (13.2), Nya Epps (11.9), and Avery Sussex (11.4). Norris’ 11.9 rpg leads the conference, with Tegan Young adding 4.5 boards a contest . Davis puts up 69 ppg, and holds opponents to 64.
Northridge sits just behind the Aggies in conference rankings, both offensively (64 ppg), and defensively (67 ppg). The Matadors have one player, Rita Nazario (11.1) averaging double digits, followed by Saray White (9.7). CSUN leads the conference in team rebounding, just ahead of UCD, with Jite Gbemuotor grabbing 7.2 rpg, and Nadia Bernard adding 4.6.
Copied over from the Riverside thread, where I originally posted for some reason: Aggies win 68-51 despite shooting 4-30 from deep and 12-21 from the line.
Epps the leading scorer at 27; Norris another excellent night on the boards finishing with 15 to go with 10 points of her own.
UCSD beat Santa Barbara, so the Aggies are tied for 2nd in conference at the moment (listed 3rd due to tiebreak with Irvine who lost at Hawaii).
