Before we move on to the three matchups next week, let's look back at the Dayton game at Jadwin yesterday.
- Bella Alarie – The freshman continued her wonderful start to the season, securing her first career double-double on Saturday. Alarie scored a team-high 11 points and grabbed 11 rebounds. For the season, the freshman is averaging 14.3 points and 7.7 rebounds per contest.
 - Three-Point Threats – Princeton didn't get much offense from beyond the arc vs. Dayton, going 4-of-14 (28.6 percent) from deep. However, sophomore Jordan Muhammad's only three-pointer came in a big spot. Trailing 50-47 with a minute to go, the sophomore launched a long range bucket to tie the game for a 10th time and send it to overtime.
 - You Get A Rebound, You Get a Rebound, Everyone Gets A Rebound -  Princeton had two players grab 10+ rebounds vs. Dayton in Alarie and junior Leslie Robinson. For the second straight game, Robinson broke a personal record, snagging 12 boards. Eight other Tigers had a rebound including sophomore Sydney Jordan, who set a career high with six.
 - Jenna Burdette – An Atlantic-10 First Team All-Conference player, Burdette was held in check against Princeton, going 0-for-11 from the field. It was the junior's worst shooting performance of her career and a vast change from 22-point outing against the Tigers last season. Burdette added six rebounds and five assists in the win for the Flyers.
 - Kelley Austria – Austria, a preseason second team all-conference player, went 2-of-9 (22.2 percent) for Dayton. The Tigers held Austria to five points, four rebounds and just one three-pointer, all of which are below her season averages.
- Nicole Enabosi – The Blue Hens' leading scorer and rebounder, Enabosi boasted a double-double vs. St. Bonaventure on Saturday with 11 points and 13 rebounds. Despite only making one shot, Enabosi got to foul line 12 times to help the Blue Hens to a victory. The sophomore made the CAA All-Rookie Team last season and was voted as Delaware's most improved player.
 - Sade Chatman – After averaging 6.2 points and 5.2 boards in 31 games for Delaware last season, Chatman is off to stellar start to the 2016-17 season. The redshirt junior has two double-digit games including a personal-best 17 points on 6-of-10 shooting at American (Nov. 16). She is up to 12.0 points, 7.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists in the Blue Hens' three games.
 - Youth Is Served – Rutgers' 16-person roster features just three seniors, two of which will not play this season. Junior Shrita Parker leads the Scarlet Knights in scoring (11.0 pts/game). Rutgers will miss Tyler Scaife, 2016 second team All Big-Ten, because of an ACL injury.
 - Taylor McCarley – The senior guard is having a sparkling performance to open the year. McCarley is shooting 58.6 percent and is averaging 15.7 points a game. Last Monday, she was named American East Player of the Week following a career-high 34 points against Ivy League foe Columbia.
 - Three-Point Opportunity – Coming into this week, UMBC placed 321st in the county in three-point field goal percentage defense (40.9). Look for Princeton's shooters, Alarie and Muhammad, who've combined for nine of the team's 12 three-pointers, take some deep chances from long range vs. the Retrievers next Sunday.
