FINAL

Betts now has 67 blocked shots - UCLA record

UCLA70 , Illinois 55

Story of Q4 was Illinois finally waking up from three point range but Rice's solo run mid-quarter gave the Bruins control and the rest was just holding off the Illini

My favorite move of the game was a drive by Gabi Jaquez from the right corner where she nonchalantly put the ball behind her back on the dribble then gathered up close for a short in-the-paint jumper - 2 points. Gabi seems to play with a sense of humor and the joy of the playing

Betts 22 points, 7 RBs, 3 Assists (and, I think, 7 blocks but don't have stats on that)
Rice - 16, 5 and 4
Dugalic 10, 8 and 4
Jaquez 7, 3 and 4
Jones 9

UCLA shot 47% for the game, Illinois 36% (6-13 from three)
We wound up with 67% FTs to Illinois' 56%

UCLA 46 points in the paint to 24 for Illinois
