◊ Scored all of her eight points against Georgia Tech in the final 5:36 of the first half to help the Lady Bulldogs trim an 11-point deficit to three at the break.
◊ After scoring seven points the first three games, averaged 11.0 points in Georgia's next six outings...with double-digit performances in five of those contests.
