When it comes to explaining why University lost on Monday, one person who can't be blamed is Alexis Hall. Despite the final result, she scored ten points.

Pabst has been hot recently, having posted two or more steals the last eight times she's played. Caniyah Graham was another key contributor, scoring 14 points along with five assists and five steals.

Those losses could be blamed on the team's offensive performance across that stretch, as they only averaged 25.8 points per game.
