IMPERIAL (2-2-2019) – Following a month-long stretch of sub-par performances, San Diego City College came through with one of their better defensive efforts of the season.
The Knights held host Imperial Valley to season-lows in field goals (14) and shooting percentage (20.2) to surprise the Lady Arabs, 48-38, Friday (Feb. 1) at DePaoli Sports Complex.

There were few signs of a problem through the first period, as Imperial Valley (11-11 overall, 2-2 PCAC) led 18-14. But San Diego City (9-13, 1-3 PCAC) did not allow more than 8 points in any of the next three periods to gain its initial South Division triumph of the season.
