Knights Host Houston Saturday at 7 p.m.

Before ending the season with a three-game road trip, the UCF women's basketball team hosts Houston at 7 p.m. Saturday night in its home finale at the UCF Arena. The Knights will be looking to bounce back from a frustrating 65-59 loss to Rice on Thursday night and build momentum before the stretch run and the Conference USA Tournament in early March.

UCF will be participating in the WBCA's Pink Zone initiative Saturday, joining the unified effort to raise breast cancer awareness. All fans are encouraged to wear pink to the game, and admission will be free for all in attendance. Additionally, the first 150 fans will receive a free pink t-shirt and the first 500 fans will receive a free C-USA Pink Zone placard.

It could be a historic night for UCF junior Chelsie Wiley (Riviera Beach, Fla.), who enters the game having scored 990 career points. Wiley is averaging 11.2 points per game this season.
