BYU women’s basketball dropped its last conference game on Saturday, losing to Gonzaga, 62-37, on the road at McCarthey Athletic Center.
“We played a good defensive game,” BYU head coach Jeff Judkins said, “but missed out on a lot of opportunities to score. We have to start the game better when we play big teams like Gonzaga.”
Brenna Chase led the Cougars with 10 points, going 2-of-6 from behind the arc. Malia Nawahine chipped in eight points for BYU, while Cassie Broadhead Devashrayee had seven points in the loss. Amanda Wayment recorded a team-high nine rebounds.
After BYU notched an early 2-0 lead, Gonzaga went on a 14-0 run to claim the 14-2 advantage and force a Cougar timeout with 3:14 left in the first quarter.
