The Chico State women’s basketball team added to their win streak in a dominant fashion on Thursday night against Cal State East Bay in a landslide (77-54).

Junior guard Morgan Mathis gave a huge spark coming off the bench, drilling three big shots from behind the arc.
The second half was more of the same with the Wildcats controlling the game, putting up an impressive 43 points on 50% from the 3-point line.
“It came down to our team play, we shared the ball very well. Our defense was important as well, we worked extremely hard in practice and communicated well.” said Allred.
The team play came out for the Wildcats as they totaled near 20 assists on the night, giving a clinic on how to share the ball.
As the final buzzer rang, it would be Allred leading all scores with 24-points, shooting an impressive 53% from the field, in addition to Mathis who drilled six 3-pointers ending the night with 18 points.
