A LOOK AT UW-STOUT:

• Amber Fabeck and Shannan Watkins are leading the Blue Devils in scoring, with Fabeck, who scored a career-best 28 points against UW-Eau Claire, averaging 12.5 points and Watkins at 10.8 points. The Blue Devils are leading the conference in scoring offense in both all games and second in league-games only. Overall, Stout is averaging 70.7 points per contest. In the grueling WIAC contests, Stout is averaging 66.4 points. Overall, Stout gives up 63.6 points in league games-only, Stout gives up 64.0 points. 
• Fabeck is averaging 12.5 points and 4.9 rebounds. Fifteen times this season Fabeck has scored in double figures, seven times in league play. Fabeck scored a career-best 28 point in the Blue Devils loss to Eau Claire a week ago. Fabeck recorded a double-double by scoring 13 points and pulling down 10 rebounds against Viterbo University.
• Watkins notched a career-best 27 points against Illinois Wesleyan early in the season. Watkins nearly matched that single game total when she scored 23 points against Viterbo University, hitting 13 free throws. Watkins has nine times scored in double digits, but has had a much tougher go of it in the conference battles, averaging 7.0 points in conference games only after the first round of play. On the boards, Watkins play has been very consistent throughout the season. She shares the team lead in rebounds at 5.9 boards and ups that slightly in conference games at 6.0. Watkins is second in the league in assists with 77 (4.28). 
• Watkins and Emily Jacques are neck-and-neck in rebounds, with both averaging 5.9 rebounds. Nine times this season, Jacques has recorded seven or more rebounds.

Oswald averages 1.9 3-pointers made per game, fourth in the league. Oswald has found the bottom of the net from beyond the arc in 15 games so far this season. 
• Katie Christopherson has made herself known, like the time she hit a 3-point shot from three-quarter court. Unfortunately, she got the shot off a split second too late after the buzzer and the shot did not count. But Christopherson has dropped in enough points in her freshman campaign to average 7.3 points and last week against Eau Claire scored a career-best 26 points. She is second on the team in assists with 37. 
• Freshman Haley Yaeger is coming off the bench and is pulling down 4.2 rebounds and is averaging 6.5 points. Yaeger recorded her first collegiate double-double, scoring 13 points and pulling down 11 rebounds against Husson University in Florida. 
• Lizzy Olsem has come off the bench and has scored in double digits five times, with a career-best 16 points at nationally ranked Wartburg College.

Last season, Olsem saw action in all 27 games, averaging 8.7 minutes and 2.5 points. Over her first two seasons, Olsem tallied 68 total points, but this season has tossed in 103 points. 
• After suffering two consecutive home losses of the season, the Blue Devils are currently 7-2 at home. Stout was 11-2 last year at home, losing only to UW-Platteville and UW-Oshkosh at home. Do the math, and Stout is 18-4 on Dewey Mintz Court over the last two years.

• But Amber Fabeck, who earned All-WIAC honorable mention honors, returns. Fabeck last season averaged 13.4 points and pulled down 5.0 rebounds. Shannan Watkins returned full-time for the Blue Devils last year after missing nearly a season and a half due to injury.

Katie Essen tied the score at 1:08 and the Blugolds took a 70-68 lead on two free throws by Anna Graaskamp.  Stout's Katie Christopherson tied the score with six seconds left and the Blugolds turned the ball over.

Stout's Lindsey Johnson tied the score at 76-76 with a pair of free throws, but the Blugolds went on a 6-0 run with baskets by Graaskamp, Bakken and Katelyn Morgan for an 82-76 lead. Stout could only get as close as three with the final score. Stout got career-bests from Fabeck and Christopherson. Fabeck led all scorers with 28 and Christopherson had 26 points, draining five 3-pointers. Shannan Watkins finished with 10 points. | Game Story and Statistics

As well as working directly with the team, Iverson managed the program's operating budget, coordinated team travel, co-directed summer camps and clinics and handled all aspects of team film. She assisted in the set-up of on-campus recruiting and coordinating official and unofficial visits for potential recruits. Iverson held a similar position - director of basketball operations - at the University of Illinois from 2014-16.
• Iverson spent two years at NAIA member Ashford University in Clinton, Iowa, as an assistant women's basketball coach for the 2012-14 school years. Iverson was in charge of guard development in a season where she helped the Saints to the 2014 Association of Independent Institutions tournament championship, earning Ashford a berth in the NAIA Division II Women's Basketball Championship tournament, the first conference title and appearance in the NAIA D-II tournament in Saints history.
