REACHING A MILESTONE

Rosado got her 1,000th point in the second half of the December 3 overtime victory over UMKC, while Boese reached the mark three days later on December 6 at Valparaiso. This is the second straight year that two players from the same IPFW women's basketball team reached the 1,000-point milestone in the same season, as Jordan Zuppe and Chelsey Jackson each accomplished the feat last season.

CAREER RECORD BREAKER
