SENIOR LEADERSHIP
Senior Jade Redmon is in the midst of a solid final collegiate season as the only Wolf Pack player to score in double figures in every game in which they have appeared. She is averaging 15.0 points per game in her five games since returning from injury on Dec. 29, and led the team with 18 points in the win at SJSU. She ranks second on the team averaging 13.8 points per game and ranks ninth in the MW in scoring. Additionally, Redmon needs one more point to reach 1,000 in her collegiate career, including her two years at Eastern Washington.

DOUBLE TROUBLE
Freshman Emma Torbert became the final scholarship rookie to post a game in double figures after she scored 11 points in the team's game against Seattle. She also became the first Pack rookie to record a double-double after posting 13 points and 11 rebounds against Hawai'i. Torbert, along with the Pack's four other scholarship freshmen, including Da'Ja Hamilton, Essence Booker, Imani Lacy and Amaya West, have now all reached double figures at least two times this season.

TIP TIP TERAE
Senior Terae Briggs is putting together a remarkable career season for the Pack. She was named the Mountain West Player of the Week for the first time in her career after scoring a career-high 24 points in the team's win over Hawai'i but then followed that up with setting a new career high of 30 points at Utah State. She added 12 rebounds to her 30-point outing to post her sixth double-double of the season, which ranks 45th nationally. Briggs currently ranks second in the league in scoring, fifth in rebounding, fifth in field goal percentage, fourth in free throw percentage, and is eighth in blocked shots.

For her career, Briggs is closing in on 800 points, needing just one more to reach the milestone. She can reach the 1,000 mark by averaging 13.4 points per game the rest of the season.
