Women’s Basketball Keeps Rolling

After losing an overtime heartbreaker at Biola, Westmont women’s basketball (15-5, 11-3 PacWest) has strung six wins together, including an inspired 79-43 win at home Jan. 31. 

Over the course of those six victories, the Warriors have averaged 74.0 points per game while limiting their opponents to an average of 42.8. “Obviously, we’ve been able to build momentum,” said Kirsten Moore, Westmont’s head coach. “I’m excited, not just for the wins, but for how we’re winning them. Our players are focused on the things it’s going to take to finish strong this year.”

The game also saw the return of junior captain Madi Bogan, who has been out with an injury for the last 23 months. She ended the game with five points, two rebounds and a steal in six minutes of play. 

“She’s grateful to be part of a program that cares about her, has loved her through it, and is grateful to God for the opportunities she has,” Moore said. “That gratitude has helped her have the grit to get back from the hard road she’s been on the last two years.”
