Wildcats Top Performers:
 

• Deja Tanks was omnipresent, blowing up for a contest-high 15 rebounds in addition to 16 points for her sixth double-double of the year while nine of her boards came on second chance opportunities.

 

• Princis Goff has now led the offense in the scoring department during every game outside of the season opener, running her current top dog stretch to a dozen in-a-row while scooping up seven boards and multiple steals.

 

• Maya Washington had her best night of the season to-date, recording nine points on four field goals on top of five boards and going 4-of-6 (66.7%) from the floor.

 

• Olivia Scott has effectively carved her role as the floor general, logging an LCU-high six assists on the evening while DaKayla Howard (4) and Jakiya Thompson (3) combined for seven in their own right.

 
Notes
 

• Since joining the Red River Athletic Conference, the two hoops squads have alternated wins, dropping the only contest in Austin while going 2-1 on "The Hill".

 

• Similar to the men, HTU jacked up three-pointers all night and the Wildcats' defense held firm, ceding just four treys and a 20% (4-for-20) conversion rate, both season-lows.

 
Next:
  

• OLLU will hopefully be the victim that ends the losing streak for the Cats which will be on Saturday at 2 p.m. in Pineville.
