SPOKANE, Wash. (Interstat) — Two undefeated teams will clash Thursday when the Colorado State Rams visit the No. [rank] Gonzaga Bulldogs in a nonconference women’s basketball matchup at McCarthey Athletic Center.

Both teams enter the contest with 2-0 records. Colorado State is coming off a dominant 73-34 home victory over Long Beach State on Sunday, led by Lexus Bargesser’s 17 points. The Rams also opened their season with a 75-58 win against Weber State.

Gonzaga, a perennial West Coast Conference power, is also 2-0 after a pair of road wins. The Bulldogs edged Toledo 72-69 on Sunday, with Lauren Whittaker and Allie Turner each scoring 16 points. Their season began with an 81-66 victory at North Dakota State.

The game features a contrast in early-season schedules, with the Rams playing their first game away from home. Gonzaga, meanwhile, will play its home opener in front of what is expected to be a raucous crowd in Spokane.

The matchup will test Colorado State’s high-scoring offense, which is averaging 74 points per game, against a Gonzaga squad that has proven it can win close contests on the road.

Following this game, Gonzaga will host Stanford on Sunday, while Colorado State returns home to face San Diego on Monday.
