Charlotte at California

BERKELEY, Calif. (Interstat) — The California Golden Bears look to continue their strong home-court start when they host the Charlotte 49ers in a non-conference women’s basketball game Saturday at Haas Pavilion.

California (2-1) is 2-0 at home this season, most recently defeating Pacific 60-52 on Tuesday. Lulu Twidale led the Golden Bears in that contest, scoring 19 points and dishing three assists in 34 minutes.

Charlotte (2-2) arrives on the West Coast looking to rebound from a 117-59 road loss to LSU on Wednesday. Despite the lopsided defeat, guard Princess Anderson turned in a standout performance, pouring in 27 points for the 49ers. Asianae Nicholson added eight points and nine rebounds.

The 49ers have shown resilience, winning a close 66-64 game at UCF on Nov. 9 after a season-opening loss to Auburn.

This matchup begins a key stretch for both teams before upcoming multi-team events. California will host Saint Mary’s on Nov. 20 before traveling to Texas for two games. Charlotte’s next game is at home against Wofford on Nov. 22, followed by a trip to a tournament in Ontario.
