• It was another stellar showing from Kasey Neubert, who recorded yet another double-double of 16 points and 10 rebounds.
• Veronica Sheffey added 15 points and five assists, while Dylan Horton tallied 12 points and four assists playing in her home city.

 
OPPONENT HISTORY

• San Diego and Portland will resume their hotly contested all-time series for the second time in just over two weeks, with the Toreros leading the all-time ledger at 47-37.
• Portland emerged with the victory in a tight contest up north on Jan. 11, as the Toreros fell 65-54.
• Both Harsimran Kaur and Neubert tallied double-doubles in the loss, with Kaur's being the first of her career.

 
WHAT TO WATCH FOR

• Horton (905) needs 95 more points, while Neubert (859) needs 141.

• In addition, Sheffey continues to rank among the top five in the WCC in free throw percentage, attempts and made free throws.
• Neubert continues to average a double-double per game and has eight over 15 games this season. She ranks 33rd nationally and second in the WCC in double-doubles.
