OGDEN, Utah (Interstat) — The UC Davis Aggies used a dominant third-quarter surge to pull away from the Weber State Wildcats and secure a 75-52 victory in a non-conference women’s basketball game Wednesday night at the Dee Events Center.

The Aggies remained undefeated, improving to 3-0, while the Wildcats fell to 1-2.

A competitive first half saw UC Davis hold a narrow 32-28 lead at the break. The game was decisively broken open in the third quarter, where the Aggies outscored the Wildcats 27-14. A key 16-2 run during the period, fueled by efficient outside shooting and a stifling defense, turned a tight contest into a comfortable lead for the visitors. UC Davis maintained control throughout the fourth quarter to seal the 23-point win.

Nya Epps led all scorers for UC Davis, finishing with 20 points and adding four rebounds. She was instrumental in the Aggies’ offensive attack, particularly during their game-changing run. Ryann Bennett contributed 16 points, five rebounds and four assists, while Avery Sussex added 15 points and five rebounds. Megan Norris nearly recorded a triple-double, posting nine points, nine rebounds and five assists.

Despite the loss, Weber State’s Antoniette Emma-Nnopu delivered a formidable performance on the glass, hauling in a game-high 16 rebounds to go with nine points. Lanae Billy led the Wildcats in scoring with 19 points.

The Aggies’ victory was built on superior shooting efficiency. UC Davis connected on 13 of 32 attempts from 3-point range, a 40.6 percent clip, while Weber State struggled from deep, making just 6 of 28. The Aggies were also more effective at converting turnovers into points, scoring 17 off Wildcat miscues compared to just seven for the home team.

UC Davis will look to continue its winning streak on the road Friday at Boise State. Weber State returns to action at home Saturday against Utah Tech.
