Utah State at Oregon State

CORVALLIS, Ore. (Interstat) — The undefeated Oregon State Beavers look to continue their strong start to the season when they host the Utah State Aggies in a nonconference women’s basketball game Tuesday at Gill Coliseum.

Oregon State enters the contest 3-0 after a 64-59 victory over Illinois on Friday. Tiara Bolden led the way with 25 points and six rebounds, while Jenna Villa added nine points, six rebounds and three assists. The Beavers’ defense has been a hallmark, holding opponents to an average of 51.3 points per game.

Utah State (2-1) arrives in Corvallis following a 77-69 home win over Omaha on Saturday. The Aggies showcased a balanced attack with Karyn Sanford posting 11 points, five rebounds and six assists, Elise Livingston scoring 15 points off the bench, and Marina Asensio adding 13 points and four assists.

The Aggies’ lone loss was a decisive 90-53 defeat to in-state rival Utah on Nov. 7, but they have since responded with two consecutive road and home wins.

Tuesday’s matchup will be the first of two games in Oregon for the Aggies, who will visit the University of Oregon on Sunday. For Oregon State, it’s the third contest in a four-game homestand before a trip to the U.S. Virgin Islands for a holiday tournament.

Tipoff is set for Tuesday night.
