Last Time Out
  • The Owls fell to AIC, 65-57 on Nov. 26 at Moore Field House.
  • Senior Imani Wheeler collected a team-high 20 points and a career-high eight steals, while chipping in five rebounds and two assists. She shot 57.1% from beyond the arc and 33.3% from the field.

Team Notes
  • SCSU entered last week's DII Sports Information Directors of America (D2SIDA) Regional Poll at No. 8. The Owls weren't ranked in the D2SIDA East Region Preseason Poll on October 29 but dropped to No. 10 in the Nov. 23 poll after losing to New York Tech, 69-55.
  • Despite New York Tech snapping Southern's four-game winning streak, the Owls started off the season hot and won their first four games. The last time SCSU won their first four games was during the 2009-10 season against Bridgeport, Le Moyne, Post and Pace to open the season.

Player Notes
  • Kiana Steinauer is now up 1,065 career points, ranking 18th all-time in program history.
  • Steinauer's 50 rebounds this season puts her seven away from breaking the 1,000 mark in rebounds. She previously broke 1,000 points in the Owls game against Bridgeport on Nov. 9.
  • With four steals against New York Tech on Nov. 20, Imani Wheeler hit the 150 career steals marker and now has 160 career. She broke a career-high in the Owls game against AIC on Nov. 26 with eight.
