AT A GLANCE
- Last time out: The Bears came away with an 81-62 win over visiting Westmont in Cal's exhibition opener last Thursday. Defensively, the Bears held the Warriors to just 20 points in the second half, six in the fourth quarter.
- Double-double times two: Inside play played a big part of the Bear's win. Junior Evelien Lutje Schipholt and grad transfer Jadyn Bush finished with a pair of double-doubles. Lutje Schipholt finished with 13 points and 16 rebounds, while Bush scored 10 points and added 10 rebounds.
- On the glass: The Bears outrebounded the Warriors 55-29 – even more impressive, Cal held Westmont to just five offensive rebounds and zero second chance points.
- Another Curry in the Bay: Freshman guard Jayda Curry had an impressive debut in the blue and gold. The 2021 Ms. Basketball State Player of the Year led all scorers with 23 points, going 8-for-15 from the field. She also had seven rebounds.
- Welcome back Bears: Cal had three players return to the lineup last Thursday night after missing most or all of last season. Back for Cal was Cailyn Crocker, Jazlen Green, and Alma Elsnitz. Crocker got the start and finished with 16 points – 14 coming after the intermission. Green and Elsnitz both saw action off the bench.
