ORANGE, Calif. — Ten different Lutes scored buckets on Monday afternoon but it wasn't enough as the Pacific Lutheran University women's basketball team ending up on the wrong end of a 93-47 scoreline against host Chapman University inside the Hutton Sports Center.

The game capped off a grueling season-opening road trip for the Lutes (0-3) who played three games over a four day stretch in southern California.
 
"We learned a lot about ourselves this weekend and will use that moving forward. When adversity hits, the best teams band together and that's what we will do," said Head Coach Lee Aduddell.
 
"This weekend will inform us but it won't define us. We're excited to head back home and get back to work."
 
Kate Wooten led the way with eight points while also grabbing four rebounds with an assist and a steal. Ava Bright and Chloe Betts both contributed seven points. Bright had six boards while Betts was a perfect three-for-three from the field. Ghadir Ramadan led the Lutes on the glass for the third straight game, hauling in seven boards. 

Host Chapman (1-0) led wire-to-wire, scoring five of the game's opening six points. An Ava Bright jumper made it a one possession game but the Panthers tallied the next six points to stake an 11-3 lead with 6:27 remaining in the first. A Marina Spitzer free throw whittled the Lute deficit to just four midway through the first quarter but was unable to get any closer as the hosts held a 22-13 edge after one quarter of play.
 
Lilli Williams opened the second quarter with a trey only to have the Panthers match that on the ensuing possession. Chapman slowly pulled away, closing the half on a 13-3 run to enjoy a 45-27 lead at the break.  
 
The Lutes take the next 10 days off before hosting Corban University on Friday, November 21 in the home opener inside Olson Gymnasium.
