• Meanwhile, SIAC Preseason Defensive Player of the Year JuToreyia Willis (Chattanooga, Tenn.) also started right where she left off last season, leading the team in assists and steals over the first weekend. The graduate student had filled nearly every category in the season-opener, with 12 points, seven assists, five rebounds and five steals, while accounting for 11 points, seven assists and six rebounds against the Choctaws.
• The Golden Tigers displayed a balanced scoring attack so far, with four double figure scorers in each game. Nine different players scored against the Lady Statesmen, while eight players scored in game two against Mississippi College.
• Brittney Bolin (Trophy Club, Texas) has looked to be comfortable in her starting point guard role so far for Tuskegee, as she led the Golden Tigers to a pair of wins over the weekend against Delta State and Mississippi College in the Gulf South SIAC Crossover. The guard scored 17 points along with grabbing a pair of rebounds and dishing out two assists in the first game against Delta State, followed by an 11-point, five rebound and two assist outing in the second game.
