FOR STARTERS: After a 2-0 homestand, the Ladyjacks play just one game this week when they travel to Northwestern State for a 1 p.m. tipoff against the Lady Demons.
LAST TIME OUT: For a second straight game four Ladyjacks scored in double-figures and SFA made a season-high nine three-pointers en route to a critical 74-66 victory over Nicholls State Saturday afternoon at William R. Johnson Coliseum. SFA dominated the Nicholls bench by outscoring their second unit 36-2, the biggest point differential this season for the Ladyjacks in that area. SFA also helped their cause at the charity stripe by making 21-of-26 free throw attempts (81%). Ladyjacks' sophomore forward Tierany Henderson bounced back from a zero-point performance against Southeastern Louisiana with a team-high 15 points and a 5-of-10 shooting effort from beyond the arc. Henderson was helped in the scoring department by junior forward Annette Davis, who registered her first career double-double with 13 points and a career-high 15 rebounds.

DAVIS DELIVERING THE GOODS: Junior forward Annette Davis has turned her game around in the past five games, averaging 12 points and 7 rebounds per contest on 62 percent shooting from the field.

THE BEST IN TEXAS: SFA is the 5th winningest school in NCAA history with a record of 935-395. The Ladyjacks trail only Tennessee, Louisiana Tech, Old Dominion, and James Madison in career victories. The Ladyjacks stand as the winningest program in the state of Texas with 42 more victories over the University of Texas, the next closest program to SFA in state
