STATS!
Bree Calhoun needs one more steal for 70 on the year, her second season with 70+ steals. Four more steals would put her in a tie with Kamira Sanders, Pam Clark, and Shannon Welch for the eighth-most in Seattle U history in a single season. Calhoun has a chance to join Daidra Brown as the only Redhawks with multiple seasons in the program's single-season top-ten in steals. Calhoun needs just four more steals to tie Laina Sobczak for tenth in Seattle U history for career steals despite having played just 52 games.
TRIPLES ARE BEST, TRIPLES MAKE IT SAFE
Courtney Murphy went 8-for-16 from deep last week and is now shooting 48% from deep over the last five games. Murphy needs just six more threes to record her second season with 50+ threes. Cassidy Murillo is the only Redhawk to record 50+ in multiple seasons, doing so in 2006-07 and 2008-09. Murphy is currently fifth in the WAC in three-point attempts this season.
I LIKE THE WAY THEY DRIBBLE UP AND DOWN THE COURT
The Redhawks recorded an assist on over 70% of their baskets against Dixie State. Only three times this year have the Redhawks had a higher percentage of assists than the 72% recorded in that game. Those assists helped Seattle U shoot 47% from the field, its third-best shooting percentage in a game this season and best since shooting 50.8% against Abilene Christian on January 20.
BOMBS AWAY
Seattle U is shooting 34% from deep over the last five games, including three games shooting over 37% from behind the arc. The Redhawks have made 41 threes in that stretch, including a season-best 11 against Dixie State. That was the most made threes by the Redhawks since making 12 against Idaho on December 21, 2020.
HEATING UP
Over the last three games, Taliyah Clark has scored 19 points in 32 minutes of work, shooting over 50% in all three games. Clark has shot under 50% while attempting multiple shots just six times in 26 appearances this year and has not done so in any of her last seven appearances. The Utah Valley game was Clark's third time this year scoring more points than minutes played, with eight points in seven minutes.
BLOCKS: THEY'RE COOL
Georgia Kehoe is up to 1.1 blocks per game this season, good for fifth in the WAC. Kehoe is one of just three players in the WAC to rank in the conference's top five in blocks in each of the last two years, alongside California Baptist's Caitlyn Harper and UTRGV's Sara Bershers. Kehoe has gone multiple games in a row without a block just twice over the last two years and has never gone more than three games in a row without a block.
