Wildcats Top Performers:
- In her final home game of her collegiate career, Maryane Mafra tied for the team lead in both shots and shots-on-goal, tallying two apiece.
- Emma Monnet was the other Wildcat with that same stat line, also getting off a pair of shot attempts with both being accurate balls.
Notes:
- While the Cats placed more shots on-target (5-4) and committed two fewer fouls (6-4) than the Gold Nuggets, Louisiana Christian was ultimately shutout for the fifth time in 2023, and fourth during league action.
Next:
- Depending on the outcome of Monday's match between Our Lady of the Lake and Huston-Tillotson, the ladies will be either the fifth or sixth seed in the RRAC Tournament next week.
- If LCU earns the fifth seed, they would make the short trek across the Red River for a rematch with their rivals at #4 LSUA, but if they wind up at number six, the Wildcats will revisit The Swamp to face #3 LSU Shreveport.
