ST. GEORGE, UT--- The California Baptist University women's basketball team completed an opening weekend road sweep as they dominated Utah Tech 87-60 for a 2-0 start to their season on Friday night.
CBU starts 2-0 for the second consecutive season and wins their tenth straight against Utah Tech.
The Lancers were in control from the opening tip as they led 26-8 through the opening ten minutes of action. CBU scored the opening 12 points of the second frame, and their lead expanded to as many as 32 points in the first half. The Lancer defense was tenacious in the third period, holding Utah Tech to 26% shooting from the floor and 11 points as their lead grew to 43 at 70-43.
Utah Tech would make up some ground in the fourth quarter as Head Coach Jarrod Olson emptied his bench, with the Trailblazers outscoring CBU 29-17 in the frame. Utah Tech would finally get the deficit under 30 as the buzzer sounded, with CBU winning resoundingly by a final score of 87-60.
The scoring was very evenly distributed for the Lancers, with 12 different Lancers scoring in the contest. Sienna Grierger and Spela Brecelj led the way with 12 points apiece, with Grieger scoring all of hers from behind the arc. Reyleigh Hess and Paula Haw collected 11 rebounds apiece, both of which are career-best numbers, while McKinley Willardson continued her impressive start with a 4-for-4 shooting night. The win is also a major milestone for Head Coach Olson as he picks up his 321st win as the head man for CBU, which ties the program's all-time wins record with Dave King.
NEXT: The Lancers will be back home for their home opener on Friday, November 13, at 5 PM against Pacific. Get your tickets here!
