Game Notes: Purdue Fort Wayne | Detroit Mercy | Horizon League
Know Your Foe
Detroit Mercy is coming off its first win of the season. The Titans are 1-23, 1-16 with a 63-61 win over UIC. Sydney Searcy is leading the way for Detroit Mercy with 10.5 points per game, followed by Brandi Washington with 9.1. Irene Murua is the team's best rebounder, grabbing 6.6 per game.
The Series
Detroit Mercy has a 9-3 edge in the all-time series history against Purdue Fort Wayne, but the Mastodons won the meeting earlier this season 62-57. Audra Emmerson scored 17 points to lead the 'Dons to the win, with Sylare Starks chipping in 11.
A Win Would...
• Move the Mastodons to 4-9 all-time against Detroit Mercy
• The Mastodons would be 2-0 against the Titans as league foes
• Be the Mastodons' seventh League win, their most since 2013-14
• Tie the most wins against Division I competition in a season since 2014-15
• Tie the most wins in a season since 2014-15
Let's Take a Look at the 3-Ball
As of now, the Mastodons are on pace to put their 3-point shooting statistics into the record books at Purdue Fort Wayne. If their averages hold, the Mastodons will make the fifth-most and take the second-most 3-pointers in a season in program history. Their 3-point percentage defense would also rank in the top-10 in program history.
All-League Résumé
In Horizon League games this season, Shayla Sellers is scoring 12.9 points (10th), 4.8 rebounds (24th), 2.6 assists (10th), 0.9 blocks (8th), 1.3 steals (18th), 42.5 percent from the floor (6th), and 31.8 minutes per game (8th).
Free For a Reason
Purdue Fort Wayne's season free throw percentage of 79.4 percent ties for the best in program history. It also ranks eighth in the country and third in the Horizon League.
Sharing The Sugar
The Mastodons have recorded more than 25 assists in two games this year: Manchester (27) and at UIC (26). This is the first time in the Division I era that the 'Dons have dished out 25 assists in more than one game in a season. The 26 against UIC is the second-most in the Division I era, and the most against a Division I foe in program history.
Streaks & Stats
The number of consecutive games that the Mastodons have...
• Made at least one 3-pointer: 41 games
• Made at least one free throw: 51 games
• Aubrey Stupp made at least two field goals: nine games
In The Wins...
The Mastodons are averaging 79.3 points per game in their wins with a 45.7 percent shooting clip. In their losses, the 'Dons are at 53.7 points and 35.6 percent shooting. They are also shooting 39.0 percent from beyond the arc in wins compared to 30.5 percent in losses.
Smoother than WD-40
The Mastodons have shot over 40 percent from 3-point range in four games this season. The 'Dons shot over 40 percent from 3 against Manchester (52.2), Indiana State (40.7), at Cleveland State (40.9) and at UIC (47.8).
Aub-Mellia Bromen-Stupp
In the last eight games, Aubrey Stupp and Amellia Bromenschenkel have combined for 24.8 points, 11.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game.
Last Time Out
The Mastodons dropped a league game with Youngstown State 69-55. The Mastodons led by five points at halftime in that contest.
Coming Up
Purdue Fort Wayne will play their last road game of the regular season on Saturday, when they travel to Rochester, Michigan to play Oakland. The Golden Grizzlies are 11-12, 9-7, and are one of the teams that the 'Dons could reasonably expect to face in the league tournament.
