- Friday is the 42nd meeting between W&M and Drexel, with the Dragons leading the all-time series 26-15. The Tribe is looking to even the series after Drexel picked up a 62-58 victory at Kaplan Arena earlier this year, Feb. 3. The Dragons also lead the series 12-7 at the Daskalakis Athletic Center.
 
- Senior Victoria Reynolds is averaging double-figures for the second consecutive season and is second on the team with 10.6 points per game. This year she has really improved her range from 3-point land and is connecting on 40.0-percent (18-of-44) from range. On Feb. 22, the junior set a new career-high with four 3-pointers.
 
- For the sixth time this season, W&M put four players into double-figures in its win at Elon on Feb. 17. The Tribe is 4-2 this season when four or more players score double digits.
 
- Freshman Eva Hodgson won her third CAA Rookie of the Week honor for the week Feb. 11. Hodgson averaged 18.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game during the week. The Tribe has won five weekly awards as Hodgson has also won on Dec. 3 and Jan. 7, while senior Bianca Boggs was CAA Player of the Week on Dec. 31 and freshman Emma Krause was rookie of the week on Dec. 24.
 
- The Green and Gold is limiting its opponents to 29.1-percent (125-of-430) from 3-point range this season. The Tribe ranks third in the league in the category, but that is also good enough for 65th nationally.
 
- W&M has moved its free throw percentage back to first in the CAA shooting 75.1-percent from the stripe. W&M's free throw percentage ranks 29th in the country. The Tribe shot a perfect 16-for-16 from the line at James Madison on Jan. 25, which was the first time the Tribe was perfect from the line (minimum 8 attempts) since 2016.
 
- W&M has outscored its opponents 783-777 in the first half games this season but has been outscored 830-813 in the second half of games. W&M is 12-0 when it leads at the break, but is 0-13 when it trails or is tied at the half.
 
- The Green and Gold is hitting 3-pointers at the highest clip under Ed Swanson this season and has had five, or more, 3-pointers in 22 of its 25 games. W&M ranks first in the CAA hitting 7.4 3-pointers per game. That mark is two more than the next best average in the six-years under Swanson. As a team, the Tribe is hitting 34.8-percent from range, which is second in the CAA, and 59th in the NCAA. Furthermore, W&M has hit more than 10 3-pointers in six games this season.
 
- Hodgson has started every game this season and the returns on the rookie point guard have been good. The freshman has been in double-figures in 13 games.  For the season, Hodgson is averaging 9.4 points per game (most among CAA freshman), with 2.8 rebounds, and 3.0 helpers per contest. Hodgson scored a career-high 24 points at UNCW on Feb. 10 and is shooting 90.9-percent from the stripe since the start of CAA play.
 
- Boggs has been in double-figures in 22 of 25 games this season and has accomplished that feat in 47 of her last 55 contests. Boggs was selected to the Preseason All-CAA First-Team after a breakout junior season. The senior captain leads the team with 16.8 points per night and has added 7.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists per night. She is one of three players nationally to lead her team in points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks as of Feb. 20. The senior has turned in 15, 20-point career games, which ranks her tied for seventh all-time in school history.
