LAST TIME OUT

• Sydney Shepard and Leticia Soares each put up double digits to lead the Toreros (1-2) but a late scoring run by the Gophers (3-0) was too much for USD to overcome.
 
• Shepard finished the night with 14 points, two rebounds and two assists, while Soares chipped in 12 points and four rebounds. Madison Pollock and Patricia Brossmann each added seven points for San Diego.

• It was a tough defensive battle, with both teams shooting 33 percent from the field. The Toreros went 20-for-60 and 3-of-9 from behind the arc. San Diego registered 10 steals, with the Gophers committing 23 total turnovers in the contest.

• The Toreros dominated points off the bench, outscoring the Gophers, 14-0. While Minnesota led the way in rebounds 46-37.
