Six Players Reach Double Figures in Rout of Chapman

SAN DIEGO – The San Diego women's basketball program (1-0, 0-0 WCC) spread the wealth across the offense, as the Toreros rolled to a 92-38 victory over Chapman on Monday night at the Jenny Craig Pavilion.  
 
Kylie Horstmeyer led all scorers with 14 points and four steals, while Kasey Neubert notched her first double-double of the season at 11 points and 11 rebounds.
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
  • After a sluggish opening five minutes from both sides, the San Diego offense began to click.
  • Dylan Horton helped jumpstart the offense with a three-pointer, followed by a steal and assist to Lauren McCall to start what became an 11-0 run to end the first quarter.
  • That run finished at 15-0, but wouldn't be the last for the Toreros, who continued to surge.
  • Between the second and third quarters, San Diego shot 61.8 percent as the lead ballooned to 40-15 at halftime and 67-25 at the end of three quarters.
  • Harsimran Kaur and Courtney Wristen asserted themselves in the paint, with Kaur and Wristen each recording seven points apiece in the third quarter.  
  • The Toreros offense continued to tack on the points in the fourth quarter, as Veronica Sheffey added to her 12-point total, while several newcomers got some extended run.
 
TORERO TIDBITS
  • The Toreros tallied their most points in a game since registering 95 in a win over San Diego Christian on Dec. 11, 2020.
  • San Diego tallied 37 made field goals, which matches the seventh highest total in a game in program history and was the most since 2016.
  • The 28 assists by the team match the fifth-highest total in program history and the most in a single game since the program record of 33 against Portland in 2005.
  • Neubert tallied the seventh double-double of her career in the win.
  • Wristen recorded a career-high 10 points and seven rebounds.
  • The Toreros recorded 49 fast break points and limited Chapman to just five.
  • San Diego has now won three consecutive season openers.
