POMONA, Calif. -- Simon Fraser University built an 11-point third quarter lead and then hung on for a 77-74 win over Cal Poly Pomona, picking up its first victory of the season in a women's non-conference basketball game played in Pomona, Calif., Saturday.
 
Simon Fraser led 67-56 after three quarters and was up 75-66 with just under six minutes remaining before the Broncos came roaring back.

The Clan's Meg Wilson dominated the contest. Wilson, the Clan's senior forward who has battled through injury to start the season, led all scorers with 23 points on 9-of-18 shooting. Wilson also grabbed six rebounds, dished out four assists and blocked two shots in 36 minutes.
 
Wilson was also three of five from beyond the arc as the Clan connected on 10 of 25 three-pointers (40%).
 
Three other Clan players finished in double figures scoring: Alisha Roberts had 12, Elisa Homer 11 and Ellen Kett 10.
 
Simon Fraser, which built a 16 point lead midway through the third quarter, shot 45.8% from the field (27-59) and was 13 of 15 from the free throw line.
