CSUB Picks Up Third Conference Loss to RGV



BAKERSFIELD, Calif. – The CSU Bakersfield women's basketball team struggled to make shots when needed against Rio Grande Valley on Saturday afternoon as the Roadrunners tallied their third conference loss and eighth overall. It was a slow start for CSUB who trailed the Vaqueros by five at the conclusion of the first period with just three made baskets. Fifty percent shooting in the second quarter was crucial for the `Runners who were able to close the scoring gap to four at halftime after the Vaqueros had went on a thirteen-point scoring run. 
 
Seven RGV threes in the second half proved to be the difference maker as the Vaqueros put together their largest lead of the contest in the fourth period. CSUB rallied back in the fourth, outscoring the visitors but it was too late.
 
Jayden Eggleston led Bakersfield in scoring with twelve points, including nine in the second half while Miracle Saxon grabbed a game-high eleven rebounds.
 
Senior point guard, Dalis Jones, matched RGV's Valeria Tapia in assists for a game-best five on the night.
 
CSUB is back on the blue floor next week when the `Runners open the second half of league with California Baptist on Wednesday for Education Day. Tipoff is slated for 11 a.m.
