nonconference competition
nearing the top
The Green & Blue took on 12 teams from 10 different conferences during nonconference action this season. They went 6-6. Here’s the breakdown.
Sarah Hansen’s accolades and milestones keep adding up. The senior currently ranks 12th among all-time Atlantic Sun players with 1,663 points. She sits 149 points out of the top-10. Hansen also ranks 27th in all-time rebounds at 754 boards.
giving charity With a new emphasis on hand check rules, there is a common perception this season that there are more fouls called and in turn more free-throws awarded. However, since the transition to Division I in 2007, the Eagles have averaged 18.15 free throw attempts per game, and this season they have gone to the charity stripe an average of 20 times per game. The number of free throws made and attempted each year has fluctuated. Here we see that this year the number is not out of line with past seasons.
hot streak With 40 straight Atlantic Sun regular season wins, the Eagles hold the second-best conference win streak in the nation. They sit behind only Baylor.
SIMPLY THE BEST In three-consecutive seasons the Eagles have set three separate 3-point records.
•350 made 3-pointers
•342 made 3-pointers
(A-Sun Season Record | 2010-11) (NCAA Season Record | 2012-13)
•22 made 3-pointers
(NCAA Game Record | Jan. 12, 2013)
The 350 made shots in 2010-11 did not count as a NCAA record due to the Eagles’ transition to DI.
