The Oxnard College women’s basketball team is on a mission to revive a stagnant basketball program that has struggled to find success in a competitive Western State Conference.

The Condors are up against the No. 1 team in the state, the Ventura College Pirates, who were undefeated during the regular season last year, and have won an astonishing 19 straight WSC titles.

Despite the stiff competition and a stellar dynasty that has comfortably had stellar domination in conference play, the Condors have already accumulated half of their win total from last year in their first six games.

The Condors improved to 4-2 on the year with a 54-51 victory over Barstow College to capture the consolation trophy at the Pierce Invitational in Woodland Hills on Saturday, Nov. 29.

The Condors lost to L.A. Trade Tech on Friday, Nov. 27, before winning two games in two nights, including a victory over Cero Coso College Nov. 28.

After finishing a disappointing 8-20 last year, the Condors have already won four games, and hope to continue their success into WSC play.

The conference opener for the Condors is at Allan Hancock College Saturday, Jan. 9. Tip-off is set for 5 p.m.
