Last Time Out

---

Taylor Proctor's banner night for the San Francisco women's basketball team was all for naught in a 94-88 overtime loss to Utah Valley at the UCCU Center on Monday night.

The Dons led by 19 points with 14:45 remaining in regulation before the Wolverines (4-1, 0-0 WAC) turned the tables with a furious fourth-quarter surge to force an overtime period. The home team continued its momentum into the bonus minutes, shooting 4-for-5 from the floor and posting an 8-for-11 effort from the line to close out the comeback.

Records Watch

Taylor Proctor made an historic rise in the record books at Utah Valley, scoring 17 points on 7-of-8 shooting in the first quarter of the night. On the 17th point off a triple from the junior from Colorado Springs, Colo., she pulled even with Teri Hunt ('84-87) for 10th place in career points. Three minutes later, Proctor earned her spot as an all-time top-10 scorer at USF.

By the end of the evening, her career tally stood at 1277, and Proctor's 39-point effort stands as a new career high. In fact, her tally stands tied for the second-best single-game performance in school history, even with USF Hall of Famer Mary Hile-Nepfels's mark against Pepperdine in 1979, and three points shy of Teri Hunt's 42 points against San Diego on Jan. 31, 1987.

Also a member of the 500-Rebound Club, Proctor stands in ninth all-time with 692 boards, and needs 6 to leapfrog Margaret Walsh (1983-87).

Jumping Ahead

The Dons close out a stretch of five games in 12 days, wrapping up against Sacramento State on Saturday at noon. After a Tuesday evening game at Nevada, USF returns to the Hilltop to meet up with UC Riverside next Friday, Dec. 4, at 6 p.m.

War Memorial at The Sobrato Center

---

Silicon Valley philanthropist and real estate developer John A. Sobrato and his wife Susan have made an historic gift of $15 million to the University of San Francisco, the largest gift from individuals in the institution's history.

The gift will support USF's first-ever master plan for athletic facilities, renovate the 60-year old War Memorial Gymnasium, and help USF uphold its tradition of excellence in Division 1 athletics. The multi-use facility will be named The Sobrato Center and will feature a new club level with preferred seating that also bears the Sobrato name.

"As a real estate developer, I like to build things," Sobrato said. "When I saw War Memorial Gym, I asked myself: Why don't we modernize this building, bring in the natural light, and make it a much more inviting place not only for athletics but also for all campus events. It's going to be a great looking building when we're done."
