ON TAP
The UIndy women's basketball team takes their three-game winning streak on the road for their final two games of their current four-game road trip. The Hounds will face a pair of GLVC opponents looking to make a late season push to get into the conference tournament picture in Rockhurst and William Jewell.
 
HOUNDS vs. HAWKS
UIndy and Rockhurst met just once last year with that meeting taking place in Nicoson Hall. The Hounds were dominant in last year's game, holding the Hawks to 36 percent shooting from the floor and going to the free throw line 31 times in the win. History was made that night as Emma Benoit broke a nearly 20-year old record setting the program record for most free throws made in a game without missing, going 15-for-15 from the stripe. Benoit finished with 25 and 13 in the win with Laura Thomas and Taylor Drury finishing in double figures as well with 14 and 11 points respectively.
 
ABOUT ROCKHURST
Beginning a four-game home stand, Rockhurst owns a 7-5 record this season when playing on their home floor. All three of the Hawks GLVC wins have come since beginning of the calendar year, but they have yet to put together back-to-back wins in conference play this season.
 
The Hawks find themselves in the top-5 of the GLVC in scoring offense this season, averaging over 74 points per game this season while only having faced one top-5 defense in the league in Quincy where they put up 75 on the Hawks. Senior guard Madeline Ronshausen paces the Rockhurst offense, averaging more than 18 points a night, good for fifth in the GLVC. Ronshausen has Rockhurst's single-game high in scoring this season when she went for 32 against Missouri S&T, making all 10 of her free throw attempts in the win.
 
HOUNDS vs. CARDINALS
Owning a 5-3 all-time series lead against William Jewell, the Hounds will be looking for their first win in Liberty since 2017 when they beat the Cardinals in the opening round of the GLVC tournament. The two squared off last year in Nicoson Hall when the Greyhounds held Jewell to under 30 percent shooting in a 66-60 win. Taylor Drury led all scorers that game with 21 points on 8-for-10 shooting and nailing five triples in the victory.
 
ABOUT WILLIAM JEWELL
The Cardinals rank second to last in the GLVC in scoring offense this year, scoring 63 points on average this year. Jewell also ranks in the bottom third of the conference in scoring defense giving up 69 points a game for a scoring margin of -5.5 this season, last in the GLVC.
 
Jewell is led by junior forward Kiara Bradley who has already claimed one GLVC player of the week award this season. The six footer from Iowa averages just over 15 points and seven boards a contest but has the ability to stretch the floor, shooting the ball at a 34 percent clip from beyond the arc this season.
 
ROAD WARRIORS
While most teams struggle playing away from home especially in a tough conference like the GLVC, the Greyhounds have excelled at playing on the road this year. Besides undefeated and No. 1 ranked Drury, the Hounds boast the second-best winning percentage in the GLVC at 85.7%. Only one other GLVC school has just one loss on the road in Truman who visits Nicoson Hall next weekend.
 
SEEING DOUBLE
UIndy has seen success so far this season, proving to have one of the better frontcourts in the region. The front court of Emma Benoit, Dasia Evans, and McKenzy Telfair have combined for four double-doubles so far this season. Benoit was the first one of the year when she went for 16 points and 20 rebounds against Davenport and she is also the most recent one going for 10 and 10 off the bench in the win over Southwest Baptist
 
PLAYING BOTH ENDS
The Greyhounds efficient offense has them as one of the best teams in the GLVC in terms of field goal percentage this season, shooting at a 44.3 percent clip. UIndy also gets in done on the defensive end, holding their opponents to 35.6% shooting, tops in the GLVC. The Hounds are the only GLVC team to rank in the top five in both categories.
 
LOCKDOWN D
UIndy has been consistently holding their opponents in tact this season including in the three games they have lost. The Hounds the only GLVC team to hold each of their opponents under 50 percent shooting every game this season.
 
TONIGHT WE BOUNCE BACK
At a 15-5 mark this year, the Greyhounds are beating their opponents by an average of nearly five points per game. But it is how they Greyhounds play after losing their game prior that has been crucial for them all year. UIndy s 5-0 after coming off a loss their last time out, winning their next game by nine points on average.
 
SHEARING THROUGH DEFENSES
Since being thrusted into the starting lineup at the beginning of the New Year, junior Shira Sasson has found her stride lately for the Greyhounds. After struggling early on, the older of the Sasson twins has been a huge boost for the UIndy offense as she has averaged almost 10 points a game in road GLVC wins in the last month.
 
CLEANING THE GLASS
Having one of the best front courts in the region has paid off for the Greyhounds this season. The team's +4.9 rebounding differential is good for fourth in the GLVC, but UIndy has not lost a game this year when they out-rebound their opponent, going 11-0 in those games.
 
REACHING MILESTONES
Closing out the win against Southwest Baptist their last game at home, UIndy head coach Kristin Wodrich earned her 50th win as the head coach of the Hounds. Wodrich is now sixth all-time in UIndy history for number of wins.
 
LAST TIME OUT
The Hounds won their third-straight game after going 2-0 on the road last weekend. They ended their trip through Illinois with a win over UIS in Springfield. The Greyhound defense won after holding the Prairie Stars to just 30 percent shooting while dominating the paint with Emma Benoit and Liz Alsot combining for 23 points and 17 boards.
