There's no place like home for Universal, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Wednesday. They snuck past the Aqsa Legends with a 41-36 victory on Friday. That's the second time they've managed to beat them this season, as they also won 39-31 back in December of 2024.
Noor Saleh and Maryam Qadi certainly did their best on Friday to avoid the loss. Saleh posted 19 points, while Qadi earned 13 points. That was a full 52.8% of Aqsa's points, marking the 11th time in a row she's scored more than a third of the team's points.
Universal is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four matchups, which provided a massive bump to their 3-4 record this season. As for Aqsa, they have also been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last seven contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 3-8 record this season.
Universal wasted no time getting back out on the court and has already played their next game, a 66-19 loss against Unity Christian Academy on the 27th. Aqsa has also already played their next match (against Islamic Foundation), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
