Match Info

The UC Davis Women's basketball team fell 71-68 to the Pepperdine University Women in a tightly contested NCAA women's basketball game on March 20, 2026. In a thrilling opening-round matchup of the Women's National Collegiate Athletic Association tournament, Pepperdine edged out UC Davis in a game that came down to the final possession. The match was a back-and-forth affair with both teams holding leads throughout. UC Davis started strong, establishing an early advantage with their interior play, but Pepperdine's perimeter shooting kept them in touch. The critical moment came in the final minute with the score tied; Pepperdine's guard drove the lane and drew a foul, sinking both free throws to take a three-point lead. UC Davis had a chance to tie on the final play, but a heavily contested three-point attempt from the wing rimmed out as the buzzer sounded. The defensive effort from Pepperdine in the closing sequence was the decisive factor, particularly their ability to switch on screens and force a difficult shot. This result was a significant upset, as UC Davis entered the game as a higher seed.
