Women’s Basketball falls to No. 6 CBU Saturday, 85-68

The Dixie State women's basketball team closed out its five-game homestand on Saturday with an 85-68 loss to No. 6 California Baptist inside the Burns Arena.

The Trailblazers (4-18, 4-12 PacWest) used a 10-2 run over a five-minute span to tie the game at 14-14 with less than a minute remaining in the first quarter, but CBU answered with a 5-0 spurt to take a 19-14 lead after one quarter.

The Lancers carried the run into the second quarter, scoring the first four points of the period to take a 23-14 lead. Matti Ventling (Las Vegas, Nev./Las Vegas HS) stopped the run with a 3-pointer at the 8:08 mark to cut the lead to 23-17, but CBU outscored the Trailblazers 17-8 over the final eight minutes of the quarter to take a 40-25 lead at halftime.

Dixie State cut the lead to 42-30 on a Tramina Jordan (Las Vegas, Nev./Centennial HS) triple early in the third, but CBU outscored DSU 25-12 through the rest of the quarter to extend the lead to 67-42 at the end of the third quarter.

CBU threatened to push the lead to 30 points in the fourth quarter, but DSU closed the game on a 17-6 run over the final five minutes to bring the score to the final tally of 85-68. Shelby Kassuba (Sammamish, Wash./Skyline HS) sparked the run with a pair of free throws and a 3-pointer, while Lisa VanCampen (Morgan, Utah/Morgan HS) added five points and Jordan chipped in four points in the run.

Dixie State shot 42 percent (24-of-56) from the field, 42 percent (8-of-19) from beyond the arc, and 66 percent (12-of-18) from the free throw line. Four DSU players finished in double figures, led by Jordan's 18 points and six assists. Ashlee Burge (Riverton, Utah/Herriman HS) finished with 16 points and eight rebounds, while VanCampen recorded a double-double with 10 points and 12 rebounds, and Ali Franks (Redding, Calif./Enterprise HS) chipped in 11 points and nine rebounds.

Dixie State now heads to the Hawaiian Islands for a stretch of three games in five days, starting with Hawaii Hilo on Thursday.
