PDF GAME NOTES | Stetson

Several times this season the Hatters have come through in the clutch, and Saturday's win over Lipscomb was no exception. 

With the score tied at 54 with 1:15 to play, the Hatters turned an offensive rebound into a go-ahead basket by Jordan Tully, and on the defensive end, Stetson held Lipscomb to just one point in the final minute to seal a 59-55 victory.

It was the fifth time this season the Hatters have rallied from a fourth quarter deficit to win, and Stetson improved to 3-0 in games decided by four points or less.  Two of those three wins have come in conference play.

The Hatters (12-8, 3-1 ASUN) will seek their fourth win in a row Monday night as they visit the Kennesaw State Owls (4-11, 0-4). Tip-off at the Convocation Center is set for 7 p.m. with live coverage on ESPN3.  

Stetson leads the all-time series 25-3 over Kennesaw State, including a streak of 20 wins in a row. The Hatters and Owls have met 11 times over the past four seasons, including three times in the postseason.

In addition to the live broadcast, live stats, the Stetson women's basketball twitter feed (@StetsonWBB), and the HatCheck text messaging system will have live updates as well.
 
Chambers Getting the Job Done
Senior Brittney Chambers continues to elevate her game.  The three-time ASUN Player of the Week is averaging 20.0 points and 10.7 rebounds during the team's three-game win streak.  She has regained the scoring lead in the ASUN (16.8 ppg) and has posted two straight double-double performances. 

Double-Double Times Three
Chambers (19 pts, 12 reb), McKenna Beach (14 pts, 10 reb) and Michelle Pruitt (12 pts, 11 reb) all recorded double-doubles in Saturday's win at Lipscomb.  The last time the Hatters had three double-doubles in the same game was on Dec. 2, 2013 at Florida A&M.

Season High Water Mark
The Hatters are now four games over .500 for the first time this season and seeking their first four-game winning streak of the year.

Rebounding Emphasis
After grabbing just 22 rebounds in their loss to FGCU, the Hatters have recorded 149 rebounds in the three games since, including a season-high 58 boards in Saturday's win at Lipscomb.  Stetson is 10-1 on the season when outrebounding its opponent.

ASUN Success
The Hatters are 16-1 in their last 17 regular season conference games.

Milestone Approaching
McKenna Beach needs two assists for 250 in her career.

Up Next
Stetson will host North Florida at 1 p.m. Saturday.
