The Santa Clara Women's basketball team fell to the UC Berkeley Women's team 72-68 in a tightly contested NCAA game on March 20, 2026. This Women's National Collegiate Athletic Association matchup saw the visiting UC Berkeley squad secure a hard-fought road victory in the final minutes, highlighting the competitive nature of collegiate women's basketball. The game tipped off at 10:00 AM local time, with UC Berkeley ultimately overcoming a determined Santa Clara side. The match was significant as a late-season contest with potential implications for conference tournament seeding. The game process was a back-and-forth affair. Santa Clara established an early lead with strong interior play, but UC Berkeley responded with a run of three-pointers to close the first half. The third quarter saw several lead changes, with neither team able to pull away by more than five points. The decisive moment came in the final two minutes, with the score tied at 68-68.
