Know Your Foe
Milwaukee is 7-6 and finished the opening segment of Horizon League play 1-1, falling to Green Bay and topping IUPUI. The Panthers and Mastodons have just one common opponent so far this season: St. Thomas. Milwaukee lost by two and the 'Dons lost by five. Kendall Nead, who was selected as the Horizon League Player of the Week on December 18, is leading the team with 18.6 points per game.
The Series
Milwaukee leads the series 10-3 and has won eight of the last nine meetings. The two teams split the series last season, with the Mastodons taking the first game 72-62. The 'Dons are still seeking their first win in Milwaukee (0-7).
In The Polls
Purdue Fort Wayne is receiving votes in the CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major Top 25 Poll. They are receiving seven points in the poll for a de facto position of 38th. When they received seven points in the poll on December 6, it was the first time the 'Dons received votes since the 2011-12 season.
All-Arounda-Schenkel
Amellia Bromenschenkel ranks in the top-10 in the Horizon League in points (13.9 - sixth), rebounds (6.7 - sixth), field goal percentage (48.4 - second), blocks (0.8 - eighth) and minutes (31.8 - eighth) per game.
What a Start!
Purdue Fort Wayne's 8-4 start is the best through 12 games in the Division I era of the program. With a win, 9-4 would also be the best start through 13 games in the DI era. In the all-time history, the Mastodons' most wins with four losses came in 1995-96 when they started 23-4. They finished 23-5 in that best season in program history.
Turn, Turn, Turn It Over
Purdue Fort Wayne has forced four teams into 23 or more turnovers this season, including a season-high 31 against Great Lakes Christian. The 31 turnovers forced against the Crusaders is the most since the 'Dons forced Manchester into 34.
Last Time Out
Purdue Fort Wayne picked up a 77-43 win over Aquinas on December 21. Shayla Sellers had a double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds. Horizon League Freshman of the Week Erin Woodson chipped in 15 points.
Coming Up
The 'Dons will ring in the New Year with a game at Green Bay, which is receiving votes in the AP Top 25. They will return home for a game on January 4 against Robert Morris.
