Aztecs ‘too slow’ as UC Riverside speeds by for 64-54 win

Looking to bounce back after a 20-point loss on the road to Long Beach State University, the San Diego State women’s basketball team was defeated in front of its home fans at Viejas Arena against Riverside, 85-68.

SDSU was looking to avenge last year’s 64-54 defeat against Riverside.

Unfortunately, the story remained the same from last game, and the Aztecs found themselves in an early hole right out of the gate.

UCR began capitalizing on every Aztec mistake, and picked their defense apart, and pushed a 14-point lead on the Aztecs.

Fortunately for the Aztecs, a last second foul on Riverside put junior guard Ariell Bostick on the line for two free throws, and she was able to convert both, to cut the Highlander lead to 25-13.
