UC Riverside Wins Fourth Non-Conference Game in a Row at Dartmouth, 57-38

HANOVER, N.H. - The Highlanders continued their East Coast road trip with an afternoon stop at Dartmouth to challenge the Big Green on Monday, December 4. Extending their win streak to four, the first time a UC Riverside women's basketball team has had a four game win-streak in non-conference play since 2016-17, the Highlanders were able to set the tempo early and earn a 57-38 victory.

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Makayla Jackson broke an early UCR scoring drought with a three-pointer off a skip assist from Zoe Tillery in the fourth minute of the first quarter to get her team on the board.
  • After a slow start, ten points off the bench ignited things for UC Riverside, lifting the Highlanders above the Big Green with a 13-12 lead at the end of the first quarter.
  • In the first period alone, UC Riverside forced ten Dartmouth turnovers, turning them into seven points.
  • Jackson wrapped up the first half with 12 points, spearheading a relentless Highlander offense that would continue to build a lead throughout the game.
  • UC Riverside had a double digit lead at halftime, 31-18, with an effective UCR offense holding Dartmouth to just one from outside in the entire first half.
  • In the third quarter, the Highlanders stretched to the largest lead of the game at 42-21. Dartmouth battled throughout the back half of the game for an edge on their opponents, but UCR was consistent from the field and held their commanding lead.
  • UCR kept Dartmouth at bay in the final quarter to win the game 57-38.
HIGHLANDER HIGHLIGHTS
  • Makayla Jackson had a season-high 18 points shooting 7-9 on field goals and 4-5 from distance.
  • Zoe Tillery had another strong performance with five points, four rebounds, a team-high four assists, three steals and a block.
  • Jordan Webster and Matehya Bryant led the team off the boards with seven rebounds a piece. Webster contributed 11 points and Bryant had seven.
