SENIOR LEADERSHIP
Senior Jade Redmon has gotten off to a strong start in her final collegiate season as the only Wolf Pack player to score in double figures in every game in which they have appeared. She returned to the floor for the first time since Dec. 2 in the win over Hawai'i and scored 12 points and followed that up with 11 at Utah State. She ranks second on the team averaging 12.7 points per game and posted a season-high 18 points during the team's win at Long Beach State. Additionally, Redmon needs 53 points to reach 1,000 in her collegiate career, including her two years at Eastern Washington.

DOUBLE TROUBLE
Freshman Emma Torbert became the latest, and 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.

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 leads the conference and ranks 25th nationally. Briggs currently ranks second in the league in scoring, fourth in rebounding, fifth in field goal percentage, sixth in free throw percentage, and is eighth in blocked shots.

For her career, Briggs is closing in on 800 points, needing just 37 more to reach the milestone. She can reach the 1,000 mark by averaging 13.2 points per game the rest of the season.
