MATCHUP HISTORY: vs. Penn State Lady Lions
• UCLA makes its first-ever trip to University Park, Pa., to face off against the Lady Lions; Wednesday’s game will be the fifth meeting between the programs. UCLA leads the all-time series 3-1.
• The Bruins took down Penn State on Jan. 15, 2025, inside Walter Pyramid at Long Beach State following a UCLA campus closure due to the wildfires that month. Lauren Betts had a 22-point, 12-rebound, 7-block outing in the win; Dugalić (11 PTS, 8 REB), Rice (10 PTS, 5 REB, 5 AST) and Jaquez (10 PTS, 7 REB) joined the center in double-digit scoring.
LAST TIME OUT: W, 82-75 vs. No. 19 Ohio State (Dec. 28, 2025)
• In front of No. 19-ranked Ohio State’s largest home crowd of the year (8,455 attendance), the Bruins led wire-to-wire for their second conference win, fourth ranked win of the season.
• Senior Lauren Betts collected her fourth double-double of the season, finishing with 18 points, 16 rebounds, four assists and three blocks. She had nine offensive rebounds in the victory; Ohio State tallied 10 offensive boards.
• Five Bruins achieved double-digit scoring: Betts (18), Kiki Rice (16 PTS), Angela Dugalić (15 PTS), Gabriela Jaquez (12 PTS) and Gianna Kneepkens (12 PTS).
• Rice ended the third quarter with a buzzer-beating heave from past half court, silencing the crowd after the Buckeyes beat the shot clock on the other end.
