The DE said Morgan, Rachel, and Pele have dubbed themselves the Splash Sisters. Somewhat bold talk but they do have the numbers and record to back it up.

I feel like we're in for another chippy game -- 32 fouls in a game speaks to very aggressive tactics and I bet PSU will be applying a lot of pressure to try to stop the offense from clicking. Sounds like PSU is also somewhat deep if they can make it to OT with four players fouling out.

17-15 Aggies at then end of the 1st

The Aggies started off cold and shot just 31% in the first quarter and allowed PSU to shoot 70%.

34-27 Aggies at the half. They played much better defense in the 2nd quarter and, as a result, the Vikings FG shooting cooled off to 36% for the half. The Aggies are struggling a bit with the Vikings 2-3 zone and shot 38% for the half.

The Aggies manage to stretch the lead a little 57-45 at the end of the 3rd quarter after the Vikings had it down to one point.

Age win by 12! PSU was playing a very soft zone and the Ags eventually started nailing the 3's. Nice win!

This one was a struggle for quite a while and PSU closed to within one midway through the 3rd quarter. Then Ags started to get the ball into the interior of the zone for a few buckets and that started opening up the perimeter more and the Ags started knocking down their 3's. The lead grew to 18 at 79-61 before the Vikings finished with a 6-0 run.

This a nice win for the Aggies but they need to come out and start the game with more energy on both ends of the floor than they did tonight. They seemed a little flat in the first quarter. They were not really attacking the Vikings zone much in the first half and seemed content to pass the ball around the perimeter. They were trying get the ball to Bertsch but early on she missing shots she normally makes.

I think Jen Gross would like to see her team cut down on the soft passes that are getting tipped and stolen also. The Ags need to pass crisply with a purpose and not hesitant with a soft lob.

PSU had some good outside shooters and they had good ball movement. The Ags play with confidence and maturity though. They seem to know that at some point they'll get it in gear a make a good run and create some separation.

The Aggies won the game from behind the arc canning 15 0f 28 for 54% to PSU's 9 0f 22 for 41%. Morgan Bertsch and Rachel Nagel led the Ags with 20 apiece.

The Ags travel to Pacific for a 7 pm game on Monday evening.

Go Ags!

I don't want to be a wet blanket here, especially in light of a win, but is UCD ever going to coordinate its game recap articles with photos from the actual game, like newspapers and pro team websites do ?

I'm looking at the article for this game, and the photo clearly shows the opponent as "Rams". Now Portland State didn't change its mascot mid- season. The only thing that ties that photo, which was possibly from last year, to the game just played, was the fact that the Aggies were playing basketball. I could see the relevance of using an older photo if it were the same opponent or if the headline were about a specific player's accomplishments (and she was pictured in it), but this photo is just so random. It's like they're saying, "The Aggies won at basketball. Here is a picture of what basketball looks like just in case you've been living under a rock your whole life". With all the technology you would think including game photos with the corresponding game wouldn't be so difficult anymore.
