SANTA ANA, Calif. - In their final game of the calendar year, SAC Women's Basketball hit 11 threes in a 71-60 win over the LA Pierce Brahmas (11-4) on Wednesday night.
The Brahmas entered the game with an impressive 11-3 record and a big reputation as a team that rebounds the ball well.

Larissa Robles led the charge for the Dons as she nailed five threes and finished with 24 points, nine assists, five steals and four rebounds.
