Game Notes: Purdue Fort Wayne | Wright State | Horizon League
Know Your Foe
Wright State is 5-21 and 4-12 in Horizon League play. The Raiders take and make the most 3-pointers in the Horizon League and are top-10 in the country in both of those categories. They have won three of their last five games, with wins coming at Robert Morris and Milwaukee and at home against Northern Kentucky.
The Series
Wright State leads the all-time series 10-8, but Purdue Fort Wayne has won the last three, including a forfeit in 2021. The Mastodons won the last two on-court meeting by an average of 21 points. Ryin Ott and Shayla Sellers had 16 points each in the last meeting in January.
A Win Would...
• Tie the most league wins for the Mastodons since 2010-11
• Clinch at least the No. 8 seed for the Horizon League Championship
Defense (Clap, Clap) Defense
Purdue Fort Wayne has held its opponents to 64 points or fewer in 12 games this season. They are 9-3 in such games.
She's Back!
After four games of four points or less, Amellia Bromenschenkel has averaged 13.3 points per game in the last nine games, with double-figures in all but one.
The Best Choice For Defensive Player of the Year
In Horizon League play, Shayla Sellers leads the league with 2.1 steals per game and is 11th in the league with 0.8 blocks per game. She is the only player in the league that is in the top 18 in both categories.
Checking In On The Standings
Through 16 Horizon League games played, the Mastodons are in sixth in the league standings. If the current standings were to hold, the Mastodons would host a first round tournament game on February 28 against the No. 11 seed. With a few wins, there is a chance that the Mastodons could move up to the No. 5 seed and earn a bye to the quarterfinal.
Thieves!
Purdue Fort Wayne is leading the Horizon League and is 65th in the country with 9.3 steals per game. The 'Dons also force the 61st-most turnovers in the country at 18.46 per game, a league-best.
Especially Those Two!
In league play, Shayla Sellers and Amellia Bromenschenkel are first and third in the Horizon League with 2.2 and 2.0 steals per game, respectively.
Sellers Swiper

Chasing 1,000
