Gophers lose to UCLA 76-58.
Gophers defense allows just 51 points through three quarters before allowing 25 in the fourth. They force 18 turnovers and held UCLA’s offense in check throughout most of the game.
Offensively they just couldn’t break out, after jumping out to a 7-2 lead they finished the first quarter scoring just 9 total points, going 4/14 from the field. In the second they scored 15 but still struggled going 7/18.
Overall the offense did come around as the Gophers shot a significantly better 14/30 in the second half, however they went 2/8 from distance in the second.
Ultimately the poor shooting and failure to capitalize on the UCLA mistakes (only 3 fast break points off the 18 turnovers) were to much to overcome as Lauren Betts came alive in the fourth quarter.
