TACOMA, Washington – The Puget Sound women's basketball team wraps up the 2017 regular season when it travels to Pacific on Saturday. 

The Loggers (23-1, 15-0 NWC) remained undefeated in league play by taking down crosstown rival, Pacific Lutheran, in a mid-week battle. Puget Sound won, 91-60, with Samone Jackson scoring 28 points, including six treys, and Jamie Lange recording another double-double, with 17 points and 17 rebounds.

More Moni
