The Mason women’s basketball team takes on the Utah Valley Wolverines at 7 p.m. tonight in their home opener at the Patriot Center.

Mason (1-1) is coming off of a 74-67 win against Morehead State, after dropping their first game of the season to East Carolina. Redshirt sophomore Taylor Brown led the team with 24 points, eight rebounds and five steals, while Sandra Ngoie contributed 14 points and tallied eight rebounds in the game.

Utah Valley (1-1) is coming off of a win against Walla Walla, after dropping their season opener to Nevada. After the loss of eight letterwinners to graduation and transfer in the offseason, including two-time GWC Player of the Year Sammie Jensen, the Wolverines return only five players from the 2012-2013 season.

This matchup will mark the first meeting between Mason and Utah Valley.
