OPENING TIP
• Thursday's game is a national broadcast on ESPNU. John Brickley and Holly Warlick are on the call. This is part of We Back Pat, which honors Hall of Fame Coach Pat Summitt and to bring awareness to the fight against Alzheimer's.
• Jaida Hampton was the leading scorer Monday in SIUE's loss at Austin Peay with 14 points.
• Sofie Lowis was named the Ohio Valley Conference Co-Freshman of the Week after her 21-point performance in the win over Southeast Missouri.
• MIkayla Kinnard was the last SIUE player to earn OVC Freshman of the Week honors during the 2019-20 season.
• This the first time since the 2014-15 season that SIUE has had a Player, Newcomer and a Freshman of the Week all in the same season.
• Gabby Nikitinaite and Allie Troeckler each recently hit the 1,000-point mark in their collegiate careers.
• With Lowis and Troeckler scoring 20+ points against Southeast Missouri, it was the first time that has happened since 2017 when Doshel Beck (23) and Lauren White (20) did it against Saint Louis.
• Mikia Keith boasted a game-high and season-high five assists against Southeast Missouri.
• Kelsie Williams shined Saturday in SIUE's win over Southeast Missouri. She recorded a season-high eight rebounds and added career highs of two steals and three blocks.
