Salt Lake City - The University of Utah women's basketball team rolled in Mountain West Conference play with a 63-38 win over San Diego State, at the Jon M. Hunstman Center on Thurs., Feb. 10. Utah is currently 16-5 overall, 7-1 in the MWC. San Diego State drops to 7-14 overall, 2-6 in the MWC.
Junior Lindsay Sodja came off the bench to lead the Utes, scoring 15 points in 14 minutes of play. Sodja was 7-of-9 from the field and 1-of-2 from the three-point line. Sophomore Lauren Beckman totaled 12 points and led the team with eight boards. Freshman Carley Marshall and junior Amy Ewert each racked up six points, with Marshall grabbing seven rebounds and Ewert six. As a team, Utah shot 46 percent from the field (26-of-57), 29 percent from behind the arc (4-of-14) and 70 percent (7-of-10) from the free-throw line. Utah unloaded its bench with all 13 players seeing time and all but three players scored points in the game.
For the Aztecs, Nicole Bemi-Morrison and Kacee Wheeler totaled nine points each. Mary Apiafi had seven points and Anita Bundage led SDSU with seven rebounds. San Diego State shot just 25 percent from the field (16-of-63), 25 percent from the 3-point line (3-of-12) and 60 percent from the free-throw line (3-of-5).
"Sodja did a real nice job for us and when she comes off the bench I expect her to give us some more offense. I keep on her, I want her to defend better, to rebound better, and she wants that too. She is a spark for us offensively and when she is successful in that role, it is hard for the opposing teams. It was nice that we were able to play a lot of kids tonight and they need to get that experience. I'm pleased with our overall performance tonight," said Elliott.
