LAS VEGAS, Nev. -- Battling until the final minute in their first game of the WCC Tournament, the USF Dons women's basketball team (19-12, 9-9) dropped a close and hard fought game to the BYU Cougars (16-15, 9-9) 66-56 on Saturday afternoon at Orleans Arena.
The Dons' offense was led by a strong performance from Debora dos Santos who scored 12 points and grabbed six rebounds for USF while both Jasmine Gayles and Kennedy Dickie each scored in double figures for USF against the Cougars.
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT:
- Both teams got off to a slow start offensively to begin the game as USF got their first bucket of the game on a nice turn around basket in the paint from dos Santos.
