HOW IT HAPPENED
- The Matadors forced UC Davis to miss 11 of the first 12 field goal attempts as CSUN led 10-8 after the first period. The Aggies mounted an 8-0 charge to begin the second quarter and took a 19-12 lead midway through the frame. CSUN outscored UCD 7-5 down the stretch and trailed 24-19 at halftime.
- UC Davis (10-9, 5-1 Big West) was 8-of-34 from the field in the first half, but seven of the field goals were from three-point range. CSUN went 9-of-34 from the floor, making only one three-pointer in eight chances.
- The Matadors drew to within one in the third quarter, 26-25, when Meghann Henderson went coast-to-coast, for a layup with just over five minutes to play. The Aggies responded with the next four points to lead by six at the media timeout. UC Davis would end up with a 10-0 run. The Aggies outscored CSUN 13-4 over the final 5+ minutes and led 39-29 after three-quarters of play.
- UC Davis made its first six field goals of the fourth quarter and would wrap up the fourth 8-of-9. The Aggies went 14-of-21 from the field in the second half (66.7) to raise their final total to 40% (22-of-55). The Matadors were 8-of-34 in the second half, 17-of-68 (25%) for the game.
- UCD outrebounded CSUN 50-37, but the Matadors held a 16-13 edge on the offensive glass. The Aggies committed four more turnovers than CSUN (15-11). UC Davis committed five fouls in the game, tying Cal State Fullerton (1/18/97) for the fewest by a CSUN opponent at the Division I level (since 1990-91).
ACCORDING TO HEAD COACH JASON FLOWERS
- "Early on was a defensive battle. I thought both teams were struggling to score. They hit some three's in the second quarter which gave them a little bit of a lead. We didn't do a good job in the second half of keeping pace. We were struggling to put the ball in the basket and we tried to make some adjustments, but it still didn't work. For whatever reason, we couldn't put the ball in the basket. They got some shots that they made in the fourth quarter. It was one of those games that we have to learn from. Our kids will be better in our next outing."
