The Broncos (5-2) had a double-digit lead at the half before the Bulldogs (3-3) made it close in the third, but Santa Clara rebuilt its lead in the fourth to pick up the victory.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nHOW IT HAPPENED: <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tSanta Clara started the game with back-to-back triples and scored the first 10 points of the day to build the early lead, but Ashlyn Rean stepped up and scored all eight in an 8-1 run for Fresno State to make it a three-point game. After some back and forth, the Broncos held an 18-15 lead after the first.&#13;<br \/>\n\tThe second started with Santa Clara stretching its lead out to eight with back-to-back bucket. A 3-pointer for the Bulldogs made it a six-point game with 4:15 left in the period before the Broncos scored the final eight of half to take a 40-26 lead into the break.&#13;<br \/>\n\tFresno State turned it on in the third and used an 8-0 run early on to get within 42-36. The Bulldogs would score five in a row later in the period to get within 47-45 but <a href=\"https:\/\/santaclarabroncos.com\/sports\/womens-basketball\/roster\/ashley-hawkins\/9115\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"9115\" target=\"_blank\">Ashley Hawkins<\/a> followed with five in a row and then scored the final three of the third to give her team the 55-48 lead heading to the fourth.&#13;<br \/>\n\tFresno State hung around to start the fourth, cutting the deficit to two three different times but couldn&#8217;t pull even and Santa Clara finally started to put some distance between the teams with a 14-1 run that made it a 73-58 game with 1:58 to go. The Broncos would finish the game on an 8-2 run to put all doubt away.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<br \/>\nNOTABLE:<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tSanta Clara shot 41.9-percent (26-of-62) from the field and went 5-of-18 from deep. The Broncos also were 24-of-32 from the free throw line.&#13;<br \/>\n\tFour players scored at least 15 for Santa Clara with <a href=\"https:\/\/santaclarabroncos.com\/sports\/womens-basketball\/roster\/sophie-glancey\/9109\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"9109\" target=\"_blank\">Sophie Glancey&#8217;s<\/a> 17 leading the way.
