Schmid on the other hand has made 97 three-pointers in her short time with the Wolf Pack, which breaks her into the top 10. Schmid needs 18 more to pass Kelli Dufficy for ninth.
BRIGGS BREAKING OUT
Sophomore Terae Briggs shot out of a cannon during the team's game against Fresno State. Briggs scored a career-best 22 points, the first 20-point game of her career, and added 11 rebounds to post her third double-double of the season. Briggs, who normally shoots under 50 percent from the free throw line, connected on 10-of-11 from the charity stripe. Her three double-doubles ranks tied for third in the Mountain West. She ranks seventh in the MW in rebounding (7.8 rpg) and is third in offensive rebounds (3.8 per game). In her last four games she is averaging a near double-double at 14.0 points and 8.0 rebounds per game.
FREE THROWS FOR T Moe
