WBB | Dons Fall in Husky Classic Opener to Host Washington
SEATTLE — As San Francisco senior guard Rojeen Sharifi caught a pass on the left wing, she heard her head coach, Molly Goodenbour, shout, "Shoot it!"
With seven minutes left on Friday against Washington, Sharifi picked up her dribble and drained her first career 3-pointer. "It feels pretty great," Sharifi said, "especially today."
A team manager and a practice player for much of the last four years, Sharifi's career-high seven points — all in the fourth quarter — served as one of several bright spots for the short-handed Dons in a 73-54 loss to the Huskies, a game that saw San Francisco turn the ball over a season-high 23 times in their second straight game against a high-pressure defense.
