CHICAGO (Dec. 22, 2024) – The UIC women’s basketball team (3-6) enters the holidays on a high note, after defeating Ohio (2-7) 91-45 in front of a home crowd at Credit Union 1 Arena Sunday afternoon. The Flames close out non-conference play with a 3-6 overall record.
The Flames were led by senior Ky Dempsey-Toney (Franklin, N.J./Franklin) scoring 17 points and grabbing seven rebounds in 19 minutes of play off the bench. Graduate student Jaida McCloud (Peoria, Ill./Richwoods) and senior Krystyna Ellew (Chicago, Ill./Taft/Wisconsin) each netted 13 points in the win.
This is the Flames largest winning margin (46 points) against a Division I opponent since their 104-49 victory over Chicago State on Nov. 29, 1993.

COMMENT FROM HEAD COACH ASHLEEN BRACEY
Jaida McCloud banks it off the glass! She is in double figures!— UIC W. Basketball (@UIC_WBB) December 22, 2024
“First off, Merry Christmas. Very, very excited to have three days off, and I think it’s time for everyone to just get little a piece of mind and rest and enjoy the holidays and be human. Second off, what an incredible way to go into three days off. These kids have been battling through so much. We literally fought and have been within one-to-two possessions of every game, outside of DePaul and LSU this season, and they’ve been so close. So, for them to put it all together and multiple people… five or six people in double figures and do it as a unit, that’s special to me… also the defensive effort as well. I thought we played Flames basketball today, we pressured them for 40 minutes, forced 30 turnovers and they had a whole lot of fun doing it.
