PRONUNCIATION GUIDE

SERIES HISTORY -- TIGERS VS USF This is the 19th meeting in the series between Memphis and USF. The Tigers lead the overall series, 12-6, but USF has won four straight in the series history, dating back to the 2004-05 year (the last year both teams were in Conference USA). USF swept the series last year, winning 71-58 in the last game played in the Elma Roane Fieldhouse, then winning a home game in Tampa, 91-68. The Bulls also got the jump on the series lead this year, winning 72-39 over the Tigers in a game played in Tampa on New Year’s Eve. IN OUR LAST MEETING Memphis had an ice cold start on the offensive end in the last meeting with USF. The Tigers forced turnovers on the first three USF possessions of the game, but could not get their own offense going, shooting 18.8 percent (6-for-32) in the opening half. The Tigers shot better in the second half, but the 41-15 halftime deficit proved insurmountable, and Memphis fell to 0-2 in league play with the loss. Mooriah Rowser was the lone Tiger in double digit scoring, finishing with 13 points on 5-for-14 shooting. HEARN MOVES TO 17TH ON ALL-TIME LIST With her nine points in the win at Cincinnati, junior guard Ariel Hearn moved to 17th on the career scoring list at Memphis with 1,303 points. She also now ranks seventh in school history in three-point field goals made (140). FUQUA-BEY JUST SHY OF DOUBLE-DOUBLE Junior forward Asianna Fuqua-Bey just missed her second double-double of the season in the win at Cincinnati, finishing with 15 points and nine rebounds on 7-for-9 shooting from the field. She also tied for the team lead for Memphis with three assists and two steals in 28 minutes of play. In the last two games, the junior has answered the coaching staff’s challenge to look to score more. In the two wins, she was 9-for-12 from the field (75.0 percent) and averaged 10 points and 7 rebounds in the two wins while playing under 30 minutes in each game. ROWSER LOOKING FOR NUMBER 500 Speaking of warming up from the field in the last two games, redshirt sophomore Mooriah Rowser has snapped out of a scoring drought in a strong way for the Tigers. After going 0-for-11 in the two games against Cincinnati and East Carolina, she has gone 12for-26 in the two wins (over Houston and at Cincinnati) to put together back-to-back double-digit outings for the first time since the first two conference games of the season (vs. Temple and at USF). Rowser is now just 15 points shy of her 500th career point heading in to the second meeting with USF. She has played in 54 career games after missing most of her true freshman season due to a knee injury suffered in the early minutes of third game of her freshman year. CHANGE OF ROLE FOR HEARN In the early part of the conference schedule, the Tigers utilized Ariel Hearn mostly at the two-guard spot. The hand injury suffered by Breigha Wilder-Cochran in the first game with USF changed that. Memphis started freshman Amber Holmes in the next game (a win vs. East Carolina), but in the three games that Wilder-Cochran missed, Hearn ran the point for the Tigers. Even with Wilder-Cochran back in the lineup, Hearn has spent a lot of time at the point. In the last six games, she has handed out six or more assists in three games and is averaging 34.8 minutes a game in that same stretch.

BATTLE ON THE BOARDS Memphis will have its hands full on the glass Saturday. USF comes in to the second meeting with Memphis ranked No. 30 in the country with a +7.5 rebounding advantage and ranked fifth in the country with 31.0 defensive rebounds a game. In the last game, the Bulls finished with a 51-28 rebounding advantage. In addition to a Bullls offense that ranked 92nd in the country by averaging 69.5 points per game, USF has held its opponents to just 59.3 points per game, which ranks 68th in the country. Inside, the Bulls’ defense ranks 92nd in the country with 5.2 blocks per game. HEARN POWERS OFFENSE AGAINST HOUSTON The Tigers went three games in the conference schedule without starting point guard Breigha Wilder-Cochran. While that hurt the Tigers’ defense (Wilder-Cochran is the primary ball-handler defender), Memphis may have found some pace with Ariel Hearn taking over the point guard duties. Against Houston, Hearn turned up the offensive speed and finished with 21 points and seven assists. The seven assists was the most for a Tiger player this season (Hearn also had 7 assists in the loss at Tulsa, a game Wilder-Cochran missed due to injury). Wilder-Cochran responded in her return to the lineup with a 10 point effort in the loss at East Carolina, but then was 4-for-5 from the floor in the win over Houston, her best shooting percentage this season. LEANING ON THE DEFENSE While the Tiger offense bogged down as the team approached the mid-point of the conference schedule, the defense has held the Tigers in games, allowing Memphis to pick up low-scoring wins against East Carolina (60-57) and Cincinnati (41-38). Memphis is holding opponents to 59.7 points per game and to a 37.6 percent clip from field goal range. LEARNING TO WIN CLOSE GAMES A young Tiger squad is still learning how to pull out close games. Of the Tigers’ nine losses, five have been by single digits, including the one-point loss to Temple in the conference opener. Those five Memphis single digit losses have added up to a combined 23 points. Memphis is 5-5 in single-digit games following the three point win over Cincinnati in the last meeting between the two teams. EARNING TRIPS TO THE LINE In the last five games, the Tigers have given their opponents a lot of scoring opportunities with the clock stopped. Tiger opponents have attempted 98 free-throws in the last five games (hitting 74.5 percent), while Memphis has attempted just 82 (hitting just 54.9 percent). WILLIAMS WORKING IN STARTING LINEUP Sophomore Taylor Williams made her first career start last year as a freshman against Connecticut, so not much fazes her as she as now played in 50 career college games. Williams, who played high school ball on a team coached by her dad, has been a part of the Tigers’ starting lineup in nine games, including the last seven straight. Memphis is 7-2 with Williams in the starting lineup and the sophomore has been on the verge of becoming a double-digit scorer the Tiger offense needs for more balance. In the last six games, she has hit the nine point plateau twice. Her six rebounds in the Houston win were the second-highest mark of the season. The five defensive boards she grabbed was a season-best. WRIGHT OFFSETS LOW SCORING NIGHT Brianna Wright posted her fourth double-double of the season, finishing with 11 points and 14 rebounds in the first game against Cincinnati.

Wright’s six consecutive points in the second half were much-needed for Memphis. The 41 points the Tigers scored in the win over Cincinnati were the fewest-ever scored by Memphis in a victory. That 41 point mark was just two points from the previous lowest-total points in a win -- 43 in a 43-26 win over Murray State in the 1972-73 season. Wright’s 14 rebounds in the low-scoring win was her seventh double-digit rebounding effort of the season. ‘WRIGHTING’ THE OFFENSE Junior post Brianna Wright is one of the Tigers’ leading high-percentage shooters from the field, shooting 50 percent on 128 shot attempts so far this year. The Tigers’ introduction to Wright this year, after she transferred to Memphis from Chipola Junior College, has been learning how to get her scoring opportunities outside of offensive rebounds. Wright was 5-for-7 from the floor in the win over Houston. She had three offensive rebounds and finished with 12 points, including a jumper at the halftime buzzer off an offensive board. BEYOND THE ARC In the Tigers’ first two games of the season, five different players (Hearn, Rowser, Williams, Creighton and Wilder-Cochran) landed a three-point field goal. So imagine the Tiger coaching staff’s surprise when at game #18 on the season (the loss at ECU), just one player had double-digit three-point field goals made (Hearn with 38). In the last meeting with Cincinnati, the Tigers did not hit a single field goal attempt (of five tries). The Tigers are hoping that Brea Elmore or Taylor Williams, who both landed triples in the win over Houston, can help take some of the defense out to the perimeter for the posts inside. Memphis was also a woeful 5-for-13 from the freethrow line in the last meeting with Cincinnati (38.5 percent). BUILDING OFF TOUGH NON-CONFERENCE SLATE Memphis has a 20-win season and a post-season bid as a team goal this year. And the Tigers’ have been well-tested to date, having already faced nine teams in the top 100 in the latest NCAA RPI Report. In all, Memphis will play 12 games this season against teams currently ranked in the top 100.

Central Michigan (W, 62-61) FUQUA-BEY NAMED TO WEEKLY HONOR ROLL Junior forward Asianna Fuqua-Bey was named to the American’s weekly honor roll after back-toback double-digit games on the road last week. That marked her fifth and sixth double-digit games this year and just the second time this season she has strung together back-to-back double-digit outings. Her 18 points in the loss at Tulsa was a season-best and missed her career high by just three points. She was 9-for-11 from the field (shooting 81.8 percent) and upped her scoring average to 9.0 ppg for the season. She also added seven rebounds, including five off the offensive glass, in the loss. She has scored double digit points in three straight games one time before (last season). Fuqua-Bey is the fourth different Tiger to earn a weekly honor roll mention this season (Ariel Hearn, Breigha Wilder-Cochran, Mooriah Rowser). HEARN NAMED TO AMERICAN WEEKLY UNIVERSITY OF MEMPHIS

HONOR ROLL Junior guard Ariel Hearn was named to the American Athletic Conference weekly honor roll after scoring 26 points in the overtime win over East Carolina. Hearn passed the 1,200 career point mark in the ECU win and her 26 point effort was her 21st career 20-point game. It was her first 20-plus point game since scoring 20 or more in three straight games (Minnesota, Southern Illinois, UALR). She is the third Tiger to earn a spot on the conference’s weekly honor roll. Mooriah Rowser and Breigha Wilder-Cochran also have earned weekly honors from the American this season. FUQUA-BEY JOINS 500-500 CLUB Junior forward Asianna Fuqua-Bey grabbed eight rebounds in the win over East Carolina on Sunday afternoon. Those eight boards pushed her past 500 for her career, making her just the 25th player in Memphis’ 43-year women’s basketball history to have over 500 career points and 500 career rebounds. Heading in to the first meeting with Cincinnati, Fuqua-Bey has 610 career points and 515 career rebounds. Of her 515 career boards, 60.2 percent (310) have come off the defensive glass. DOUBLE-DOUBLE FOR WRIGHT With the Tigers’ guards struggling to score, Memphis looked to its posts for some offensive help in the Temple game. Junior forward Brianna Wright stepped up with a season-best 18 points on 8-for-13 shooting. She also added 14 rebounds for her third double-double of the season and her fifth double-digit rebounding night. Tiger Double-Doubles Brianna Wright vs. Missouri State, 11 pts, 16 reb (11/14/14) Courtney Powell vs. Samford, 11 pts, 11 reb (11/16/14) Mooriah Rowser vs. SIU, 13 pts, 10 reb (11/26/14) Brianna Wright vs. UALR, 14 pts, 16 reb (11/29/14) Asia Fuqua-Bey vs. MVSU, 12 pts, 12 reb (12/19/14) Brianna Wright vs. Temple, 18 pts, 14 reb. (12/28/14) Brianna Wright vs. Cincinnati, 11 pts, 14 reb. (1/14/15) MEMPHIS FINISHES FALL SEMESTER IN A FLOURISH IN THE CLASSROOM The Tigers had a strong finish to the fall semester. Six players finished with a GPA of 3.0 or higher during the semester (Cheyenne Creighton, Asianna FuquaBey, Ariel Hearn, Amber Holmes, Mooriah Rowser, Brianna Wright) and freshman Amber Holmes posted the highest team GPA of the fall at 3.87. The Tigers’ fall team GPA was 3.087. FUQUA-BEY USING FREE THROW LINE TO ELEVATE SCORING THREAT Junior forward Asianna Fuqua-Bey has worked hard to improve at the free-throw line and to answer the Tiger coaching staff’s challenge to become more of a scorer this year. As a freshman, the Chicago native shot 54.3 percent at the stripe. This season, she is shooting 83.9 percent. Fuqua-Bey At the Line 2012-13........................................... 50-92 (54.3) 2013-14......................................... 60-108 (55.6) 2014-15........................................... 37-50 (75.5) DOUBLE DOUBLE-DIGIT REBOUNDING The Temple game marked the second time this year that the Tigers have had two players post double-digit rebounds. In addition to Brianna Wright’s 14 rebounds against Temple, Asianna Fuqua-Bey added 12 rebounds, her second consecutive double-digit rebounding night of the season. The last time Memphis had two players with double digit rebounds before the Temple game? Another game where Memphis had a halftime lead, but lost -- Minnesota.

Memphis has never finished under .500 in league play since McFerrin took over prior to the 2008-09 season (including post-season tournaments) and the Tigers took a step toward making that a seventh straight occurrence by closing regular season non-conference play with a 6-5 mark. Memphis Non-Conference Record Under McFerrin 2014-15: 6-5 2013-14: 7-6 2012-13: 9-7 2011-12: 12-5 2010-11: 13-5 2009-10: 10-8 2008-09: 7-7 WILDER-COCHRAN NAMED TO HONOR ROLL Sophomore point guard Breigha Wilder-Cochran was named to the American weekly honor roll after the win at Georgetown. Wilder-Cochran scored 12 points on 5-for-9 shooting and tied a career-high with five steals for the second time in three games. She is the second Tiger this season to earn a spot on the weekly honor roll, joining Mooriah Rowser. DOUBLE DIGIT REBOUNDS FOR PAIR OF TIGERS Asianna Fuqua-Bey and Brianna Wright each grabbed 13 rebounds in the loss to Minnesota. Fuqua-Bey had 10 offensive rebounds in the game on Sunday, becoming just the ninth player in school history to grab 10 offensive rebounds in a game. She is the first Tiger since Jasmine Lee to grab double-digit offensive rebounds in a game. Double Digit Offensive Rebounds in a Game 12 - Diana Gray vs. McNeese State, Dec. 2, 1989 12 - Glynetha Davis vs. Virginia Tech, Jan. 11, 1989 11 - Jasmine Lee vs. Chattanooga, Mar. 15, 2012 11 - Keeta Matthews vs. DePaul, Feb. 19, 1995 11 - Keeta Matthews vs. UT Martin, Dec. 1, 1993 10 - Asia Fuqua-Bey vs. Minnesota, Nov. 23, 2014 10 - Jasmine Lee vs. East Carolina, Jan. 15, 2012 10 - Paris Leonard vs. Austin Peay, Nov. 25, 2005 10 - Connie Hibbler vs. Florida State, Jan. 26, 1987 ROWSER NAMED TO AMERICAN HONOR ROLL Redshirt sophomore guard Mooriah Rowser was named to the American Athletic Conference weekly honor roll after leading Memphis in scoring last week in a pair of wins. Rowser is averaging 19.5 ppg and is shooting 38.7 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from three-point range in the early going. She is also the team’s leading free-throw attempts leader, going 12-for-15 (80.0 percent) in the early going. HEARN HITS 1,000TH CAREER POINT AND 100TH CAREER TRIPLE Junior guard Ariel Hearn opened her 2014-15 scoring line with a pair of three point field goals in the first half against Missouri State. The second triple pushed her past the 1,000 career point mark, making her the 23rd player in school history to score a grand or more. She added a pair of threes in the second half, which gave her the 100th triple of her three-year Tiger career. She is just the ninth player in school history to connect on 100 career threes. Getting to her 1,000th career point in her 64th career game means that Hearn was the fifth-fastest in Memphis history to get to the 1,000 career point mark. She tied the mark set by Tamika Whitmore, who went on to become the second Memphis women’s basketball player drafted in to the WNBA, earning WNBA All-Star honors while she played in Indiana. Fastest to 1,000 Career Points LaTonya Johnson -- 54 games Keeta Matthews -- 55 games Brittany Carter -- 60 games Kitty Allen -- 62 games Ariel Hearn -- 64 games Tamika Whitmore -- 64 games
