UCLA Bruins Set to Host Bellarmine Knights at Pauley Pavilion in Women's Basketball Showdown

In their last outing against UC Riverside Highlanders, the Bruins cruised to an emphatic 90-point finish while holding their opponents to just 52 points. Their shooting accuracy was impressive, with field goal percentages of 52 and three-point completion at 39 percent. The team also excelled in rebounding, grabbing a total of 52 rebounds compared to UC Riverside's 22.


Another notable aspect of UCLA's gameplay has been their ability to distribute the ball effectively. In the game against Purdue Boilermakers, they racked up an impressive 29 assists and maintained a strong assist-to-turnover ratio of nearly two. This level of teamwork has been instrumental in securing victories and will be crucial as they face off against Bellarmine.


The Bruins' defense cannot be overlooked either; they've consistently outperformed opponents in points off turnovers and second-chance points. With such statistics backing them up, it is clear that UCLA is not just relying on offense but also applying pressure on defense which could prove vital against any team that steps into Pauley Pavilion.


Given these trends, fans can expect another robust performance from the Bruins as they aim to extend their winning streak at home. The combination of sharpshooting, solid rebounding, strategic passing, and tenacious defense makes them formidable opponents for any visiting team.


The upcoming game is scheduled for November 12th at Pauley Pavilion in Los Angeles. Fans looking forward to catching this matchup can tune into Pac-12 Network for live coverage of what promises to be an exciting display of women's college basketball excellence by the UCLA Bruins.
