ASU Women’s Basketball: No. 19 Devils drop close one despite a late comeback

Related Topics: Oregon, Devil

Would most people have expected No. 19 ASU (12-5, 3-3) to win this game against No. 5 Oregon (16-1, 5-0)? Probably not.

Would most people have additionally expected that the Devils would only lose by six, and a hold a team well under its per game scoring average? That is what ASU was able to accomplish tonight.

The Devils lost their weekend opener to the Ducks 77-71 Friday night in Eugene, OR.

It was another strong performance for senior forward Kianna Ibis, who scored 22 points and collected eight rebounds. Joining her, senior center Charnea Johnson-Chapman had 10 points and nine rebounds - just one shy of a double-double.
