Morgan McGwire leads the Broncos with 13.8 ppg on 56.5 percent (70 of 124) shooting from the field and is tied for the team lead with 6.9 rpg. She is also averaging 2.0 spg and 1.1 bpg. Savanna Hanson has hit a team best 14 3-pointers and is second on the team with 10.6 ppg. She is also tops on the Broncos with 2.8 apg. Taylor Berry leads the WCC with 3.0 spg and is No. 20 nationally. Her 36 steals also leads the conference and is 10th in the nation. She is scoring 7.2 ppg to go with 3.7 rpg. Lori Parkinson scores 10.5 ppg to go with 6.9 rpg.
Santa Clara is 34-34 all-time vs. Saint Mary's with the first meeting coming in 1978-79. Last year the Gaels won both matchups by a total of four points.
Saint Mary's (10-2, 1-0 WCC) is 4-2 at home this season. The Gaels are outscoring opponents 76.8-71.3 and outrebounding teams 44.5-34.3 and lead the conference in scoring. They shoot 45.4 percent (315 of 692) from the field and 33.5 percent (59 of 176) from beyond the arc.
