In the Falcons' 80-60 victory against Stillman earlier in the week, she had six points to go along with five assists, four steals and three rebounds.  

Through eight games this season, the former Miss Basketball Finalist and AHSAA Class 6A Player of the Year is averaging 9.0 points, 4.6 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 2.6 steals while starting every game.
