QUICKLY
Behind 25 points from junior Sierra Green and 19 points from junior Emani Clough, Monmouth earned its third straight victory at George Washington on Sunday, 55-51. Green scored in double-figures for the sixth straight game, and registered Monmouth's first 20+ point game this season. Clough's 19 were a season high, and she added six rebounds and three assists in the victory. The Hawks turned the ball over a season-low 13 times, and 10 different players grabbed at least one rebound.
 
SCOUTING THE LAFAYETTE LEOPARDS
Lafayette opened up the season with three straight wins, but have gone 1-4 since. The Leopards were picked 8th in the Patriot League Preseason Poll, and return nine from last season's squad, including a pair of Patriot League All-Rookie team selections in sophomores Natalie Kucowski and Drew Freeland. Kucowski currently leads the team with 16.1 points per game and 11.8 rebounds per game. She has five double-doubles in eight games. Sophomore Olivia Martino is also averaging double-figures with 10.9 points per game.
 
ALL-TIME SERIES VS. LAFAYETTE
Monmouth holds the slight 3-2 advantage in the all-time series, but the teams have not met since November of 2012.
