Â
TeamÂ
Â
- The Cats logged four blocks at Our Lady of the Lake, all solos, putting their total up to 27 which is good enough for third-most by a Salloum-led squad.
Â
SeasonÂ
Â
- Stamps edged past I'Nyah Kately's 2018 digs number in the Alamo City, putting her at 302 now, fourth-highest amount ever.
Â
- Even on quiet nights Kierra Jones makes noise, as her singular block of the evening moved her into a three-way deadlock for the second-most blocks in a season (54), tying her with Sadi Jones (2018) and herself (2022).
Â
GameÂ
Â
- The four block solos by the front line, mentioned numerous times above, was also the seventh-highest tally for a match by the team.
