Salt Lake City- The Salt Lake Community College Women's basketball team rallied from a ten point deficit late in the second quarter to defeat Eastern Utah 57-53.  It was a tale of two halves as Salt Lake turned up the defensive pressure in the second quarter to force Eastern Utah into tough shots.  The Bruins move to 15-11 overall and 6-7 in conference play.

Salt Lake shot an impressive 47% in the second half while holding Eastern Utah to just 28% shooting.  Defensively the Bruins forced 19 turnovers, nine steals and a season high six blocked shots.  Salt Lake won the bench battle with 23 bench points to Eastern Utah's zero.  Sophia Hepworth was the Bruins leading scorer with 16 while Fawn Brady added 11 and Marrisa Robbins and Chelsea Morgan each had ten. 

Salt Lake will finish their home schedule with a match up against Colorado Northwestern tomorrow at 5 pm in Bruin Arena.
