Stockton, Calif. - The Pacific women's basketball team couldn't overcome a cold shooting night and fell to San Diego despite another late charge against the Toreros, 63-53, Madison Parrish led Pacific with 14 points, eight rebounds and five assists.

The Tigers fell behind in the first eight minutes as San Diego reeled off a 10-0 run as Pacific's fourth meeting with USD since joining the West Coast Conference followed a familiar script. In all four meetings with the Toreros, USD has used a first-half run to build a lead, and all four times, the Tigers have staged furious comebacks. This time, the Tigers would get no closer than 56-53 with 49 seconds left.

Sophia Ederaine tallied 11 blocked shots with nine points and nine rebounds for San Diego, which improves to 20-4 overall and 11-3 in WCC play. Pacific falls to 17-7 overall, 9-4 in WCC action.

Kendall Kenyon tallied 14 rebounds for the Tigers to go with six points, four blocks and three steals. Kristina Johnson scored 10 points, while Haile Eackles added eight. Pacific shot just 29 percent on the night, 19-of-66, and 22 percent from three point range (4-of-18).

Pacific opened with the first basket on a jumper by Kristina Johnson, but San Diego reeled off 10 straight points over the next three minutes. Eackles snapped the drought with a three-pointer, and GeAnna Luaulu-Summers added a three to pull Pacific with 14-8.

Pacific struggled to score inside as USD posted six blocks on the Tigers first 21 possessions. The Toreros stetted the lead as the run reached 22-4 for a 24-8 lead with 7:43 to go in the first half.

Eackles drove and finished inside, and Unique Coleman posted back-to-back lay-ups as the Tigers pulled within 10, at 26-16. Johnson knocked down a pair of free throws, but Ederaine scored inside to keep the Toreros up eight, 28-20.

Kenyon answered four-straight USD free throws with a jumper, but the Tigers missed a pair of shots on their final possession to trail 32-24 at halftime.

Johnson led the Tigers at halftime with eight points, while Coleman tallied six points. The duo was 6-of-11 from the field in the half, while the rest of the Tigers were 4-of-24. San Diego hit 8-of-11 from the free throw line in the first half on nine Pacific fouls, while the Tigers attempted just two free throws in the frame as the Toreros were whistled a mere three times.

San Diego opened the second half with a three from Cori Woodward before Parrish answered with a quick drive on the other end. Parrish and Desire Finnie posted and-one baskets, but Woodward added two more three-pointers as San Diego led by as many as 14.

Parrish finished amid three defenders inside to pull Pacific within nine, at 44-35, with 12:49 to go. Erin Butler drained a three-pointer and Eackles' finger-roll cut the gap to seven. Parrish added a pair from the free throw line as Pacific pulled within five, at 49-44.

Malina Hood answered with a three-pointer for USD as the Toreros reeled off a 7-1 run. Parrish hit both ends of a one-and-one, but San Diego ran down the clock with an offensive rebound and then posted a defensive board on the Tigers next possession.

Parrish drilled a three-pointer to bring the Tigers back within five, with 2:16 to go. Pacific forced a turnover and Parrish hit one of two free throws. After a stop, Kenyon added a free throw to cut it to 56-53 with 47 seconds left.

But Malina Hood hit both free throws and the Tigers' three-pointer from the corner was offline. San Diego sealed the win from the free throw line, scoring the final seven points to sweep the season series.

Earlier this season at San Diego, the Tigers rallied from down 13 to pull with two while having the ball for a shot at a tie or the lead. Last season, Pacific erased a 21-point deficit at San Diego to force overtime before falling in the extra session, and the Tigers posted a home victory last season in which the Tigers were down 15 in the first half.

In the first meeting this season, Pacific shot .176 from three-point range (3-of-17). In 17 wins this year, the Tigers have connected on 36 percent from deep (137-of-386), while in seven losses, the Tigers are managing a mere 26 percent (39-of-150).

The Tigers are back in action on Saturday at 2 p.m. against BYU at the Alex G. Spanos Center.
