BERKELEY – The California women's basketball team (8-2) concludes non-conference play at Haas Pavilion taking on the Florida A&M Rattlers (2-7) this Sunday. Tipoff is scheduled for noon and the game can be viewed on Pac-12 Network.

This Sunday's game marks the first-ever meeting between the two programs and is part of the Pac-12/SWAC Legacy Series, a partnership between the two conferences aimed at creating both a forum for competition, as well as promotion and education around issues of anti-racism and social justice.

Fans are encouraged to bring brand new teddy bears as part of the Teddy Bear Toss. All the bears will be to UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital with the help of CalTHON.

For this game, the Cal women's basketball team will be holding a "Pledge For Points" fundraiser for former Cal women's basketball assistant coach Kevin Morrison (2007 - 2010), who has recently been diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease. The disease has been progressing aggressively and the funds raised will be used to help his family pay for medical and living expenses. Fans can learn more about Kevin's story and contribute to the fundraiser by pledging a donation amount per point the Bears score this weekend or give a one-time donation by clicking HERE.

• McIntosh has dramatically improved her accuracy from deep, continuing her year-over-year improvement. She is currently shooting a career-high 46.2 percent from 3-point range (ranked 8th in the Pac-12), a significant improvement from last season when she finished at 36.2 percent.
• Martín has been one of the Bears' most consistent players from 3-point range this season shooting at a 41.5 percent rate, ranked 14th in the Pac-12. She has hit at least two 3-pointers in 6 of 10 games and 4 out of the last 6. 
• Jadyn Bush has provided a positive impact every time she comes off the bench for the Bears. In just 7.9 minutes per game she is averaging 5.9 points per game. She had a season-high 15 points against Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Dec. 3.
• Peanut Tuitele has been instrumental in helping the Bears control the glass this season, ranking second on the team in rebounding at 5.7 boards per game and has had 21 offensive rebounds so far which ranks in the top 25 in the Pac-12.
• The Bears' bench has been a solid contributing factor this season accounting for 30.8 percent of the team's scoring to date. Cal's bench has outscored its opponents in all but one game this season.
• Cal has two players in both the top 15 of the Pac-12 in 3-point makes: Martín (6th) - 22, Curry (8th) - 21 and 3-point percentage: McIntosh (8th) - 46.2, Martín (14th) - 41.5.
• Cal's offense is coming from multiple sources this season with three Bears averaging double-figure scoring: Curry - 15.0, Martín - 11.5, Lutje Schipholt - 10.6 . This is a marked improvement over last season when Curry was the lone Bear to average double-figures. 
• Through 10 games, the Bears have done a great job distributing the ball, while keeping turnovers low. Nationally they rank 48th in asst/to ratio (1.14), 50th in assists per game (15.9) and 66th in fewest turnovers per game (14.8).
• Cal has done a good job controlling the glass against its opponents this season, ranking 37th nationally in rebounding margin (+11.0).
