Women’s Basketball

Hey Bruin Basketball Fans!

Did you know our Lady Bruins are the No. 3-ranked team in the nation?  Did you that they’re hosting the National NCAA D-III Women’s Basketball Tournament Friday and Saturday (March 2-3)? Did you know that the games aren’t free?

But they could be for you! ASC has purchased 250 tickets for the first 250 students at the games on Friday and Saturday, but there won’t be a game Saturday unless we win on Friday, so our ladies really need your support!  Be there in your BlueZone shirt to cheer our Bruins on to victory!
