Washington Huskies Host Saint Mary's Gaels in Women's Basketball Showdown at Alaska Airlines Arena

As the Washington Huskies prepare to welcome the Saint Mary's Gaels to the Alaska Airlines Arena at Hec Edmundson Pavilion, fans can anticipate an exciting encounter in women’s basketball. The upcoming game, scheduled for December 16th, will see the Huskies aiming to extend their winning momentum on their home court.


Washington Huskies VS Eastern Washington Eagles

The Washington Huskies have been showing a solid performance trend with recent victories that highlight their strengths. In their last game against the Cougars, they secured a win with a five-point margin, showcasing a balanced attack and strong defense that led them to outscore their opponents in three of four quarters. Their field goal percentage stood at 45 percent overall, with an impressive 54 percent from beyond the arc.


Defensively, they've been consistent as well; against Montana State Bobcats earlier this month at home, they held their opponents to just 50 points while grabbing 38 rebounds and forcing 20 turnovers. This defensive prowess was also evident when they limited San Francisco Dons to only 39 points on December 2nd.


The team has demonstrated resilience and efficiency on both ends of the floor. Offensively, they've been able to maintain an average shooting percentage above 40 percent across recent games while being particularly effective from two-point range with over half of those shots finding success.


Playing again at Alaska Airlines Arena could provide an additional edge for the Huskies as they have shown comfort and confidence on this court. With strong support from fans likely fueling their performance further, it sets up what should be a competitive matchup against Saint Mary's Gaels.


Fans can catch all the action live on December 16th at Alaska Airlines Arena in Seattle or tune in for updates as these two teams battle it out on court.
