A hot start wasn’t enough for the UCSB women’s basketball team to hold off No. 15 ranked UCLA.
The Bruins clawed back from a 20-4 deficit at the end of the first quarter to claim a 68-57 victory on Saturday night at the Thunderdome.
“I’m proud of the toughness and confidence we came out with,” said UCSB coach Bonnie Hendrickson. “We just battled and defended. We got good shots, got good looks and then they started making a run in the second quarter.”
