The University of Central Arkansas women's basketball team faced serious adversity for the first time this season on its last road trip.
After an 8-1 start to conference play, the Sugar Bears head to Florida for a battle with six-time defending ASUN regular-season champion Florida Gulf Coast. After that, UCA traveled to face Stetson, which was just behind it in the standings.
UCA (16-8, 8-3 ASUN) dropped both of those games, a 65-43 beatdown at the hands of the Eagles and a 57-56 loss to the Hatters.
The highlights from the trip were few and far between. Jade Upshaw had a team-high 14 points against Florida Gulf Coast but followed that with five against Stetson. Cheyenne Banks had 10 points and eight rebounds against Stetson, but that came after having 0 points and 0 rebounds two nights before.
