Cal Lutheran moved into a tie atop the SCIAC standings after
earning a 64-60 comeback victory on the road knocking off
then-conference unbeaten Redlands on Saturday. In that victory

past four games, with 17 points including 14 in the second half to
lead the come-from-behind effort. She also led the Regals with four
assists and a pair of steals in the weekend win. On Thursday she
scored a career-high 22 points in only 18 minutes during a victory
over Pomona-Pitzer. She matched her previous personal-best of 17 by
halftime and added three steals, a pair of assists and a block in
