GAME 22COLUMBUS STATE (17-4, 11-3) @ MONTEVALLO (7-14, 4-10)

Feb. 10 • Montevallo, Ala. • Trustmark Arena • 6:30 p.m. ET

• Columbus State University currently dominates the history of mutual match-ups with the University of Montevallo. With the first game dating back to the 2005-06 season, the Lady Cougars hold a 10-3 advantage (4-2 on the road) over the Falcons, winning the last five overall.

• The Lady Cougars remain tied with Clayton State in the first position in the PBC West (both won on Saturday). There is now a 4-way tie (CSU, CLAY, AU, LU) in overall PBC standings. This year's conference tournament is awarded to the PBC West top team - a decision that may not be final till the last CSU-CLAY match-up on 02/24/16.

• Columbus State defense remains atop the PBC in points per game allowed with 56.9, a +0.8 margin over the second-best Young Harris. Montevallo, on the other hand, allows third-most points in the conference with 64.3/game.

Thirteen point margin fueled by a double-double by Carrie Washington led the Lady Cougars to a 63-50 victory in Montevallo last February. It was the 11th straight CSU victory in a 31-2 season that ended with a PBC Tournament Title and punched a ticket to the NCAA Tournament.

Notes:• The Falcons have struggled last year, post-ing a winless season in the PBC (0-19). Since then, they have gotten on a better track, win-ning four in conference (four times the overall win record in 2014-15 campaign). Two of their PBC wins came at home.

• University of Montevallo ranks second-to-last in points per game scored (59.2/game). Their mission will get even more difficult against the best defense in the conference - the Lady Cougars allow only 56.9 ppg.

• Jacquelyn Thompson shoots conference second-best 2.3 3-pointers per game. The overall offense, however, has been struggling, ranking last in scoring margin (-5.0) and free-throw percentage (56.9 percent), and sitting in the middle in field goal percentage with 40.2 percent (-3.1 behind the best-shooting Lander).

(01/09/16), putting in 13 minutes in that start

• Has seen action in every game this year so far averaging 9.6 minutes per game

• Scored career high 11 points against Fort Valley State (11/13/15), while shooting 50% from

the field

• Four-year letterwinner at Archer High School

• Played in all but one game for the Lady Cougars in her freshman season

• Averaged 3.3 points and 1.8 assists per game

• Shot a team-best 85.4% from the charity stripe, as well as 35.3% from the field
