Redland women surge past Chapman

After suffering a tough road loss to Chapman University earlier this season, the Bulldog women's basketball team returned the favor by defeating the Panthers in Currier Gym tonight.  With solid shooting and stingy defense, Redlands came out on top by a score of 76-51. 

After a back-and-forth start to the game, Redlands gained a seven-point halftime advantage off of a 5-0 run to end the first period.  Although the Panthers clawed their way back to within one with 12:17 to go in the game, the Bulldogs quickly pulled away with two offensive explosions, including an 11-point showing that began at the nine-minute mark. 

Forced to foul in the waning minutes, Chapman never recovered as Redlands cruised to an intense 76-51 victory.

The Bulldogs looked two four players in double digits, with junior forward Meghan Yetman (Danville, CA) leading the charge with 18. 

 Freshman forward Shada Sadeghi (Walnut Creek, CA) made the most of her 20 minutes of action by scoring 16 points off of 4-for-5 shooting and a perfect 7-for-7 from the line.  Freshman forward Courtney Carroll (Rancho Palos Verde, CA) posted a double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds, while sophomore guard Mariah Barbetti-Cort (Ventura, CA) added 12 points and three assists.
