RICHARDSON, TX (02.22.20) - The No. 17-ranked UT Dallas women's basketball team wrapped up the regular season with a 69-57 home win over McMurry in American Southwest Conference crossover play.

The Comets will enter next week's ASC Tournament as the No. 1 seed out the league's East Division and will host the event for the second time in program history. Now at 21-4 overall (15-1 ASC), the Comets kick off the postseason at 7:30 p.m. against Concordia Texas in the opening round of the eight-team league tournament.

Senior Victoria Pena, UTD's all-time leading scorer, paced all scorers Saturday with a season-high tying 32 points, draining six three-pointers, while adding five rebounds and three assists and was one of six Comets honored in a post-game ceremony as part of Senior Day activities.
