- Delaware leads the all-time series between the two schools 25-8, including a 70-59 victory at Kaplan Arena on Feb. 1. The Blue Hens also lead the all-time series in Newark 10-4, but head coach Ed Swanson is 3-2 at the Bob Carpenter Center.
 
- W&M played its second overtime game of the season at Drexel on Friday night. Both overtime games have required more than one extra session, as the Tribe is 1-1 in overtime this year. W&M played its first triple-overtime game since Nov. 27, 1999, and has handed Drexel its only two more than one-overtime losses in its program history.
 
- The Tribe also scored a season-high 77 points against the nation's No. 1 defense in Drexel on Friday night. The Tribe shot a season-high 53.8-percent (28-of-52), and it was the third time the Tribe has shot better than 50-percent. After being at 50-percent, or better, in two of the last three games, W&M is now shooting 40.8-percent from the field, which ranks fourth in the CAA.
 
- With senior Misha Jones next point, the Green and Gold will have eight players that have eclipsed the 100-point mark on the season this year. In the previous five seasons under head coach Ed Swanson, only seven players have accomplished this feat in a single-season.
 
- Senior Victoria Reynolds is averaging double-figures for the second consecutive season and is second on the team with 10.5 points per game. This year she has really improved her range from 3-point land and is connecting on 38.3-percent (18-of-47) 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, Jan. 7, and Feb.11, 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 27.7-percent (127-of-458) from 3-point range this season. W&M limited Drexel to a season-low 7-percent (2-for-28) from 3-point range in the win on Friday. The Tribe ranks third in the league in the category, but that is also good enough for 20th nationally.
 
- W&M has moved its free throw percentage back to first in the CAA shooting 74.7-percent from the stripe, and ranks 39th 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 812-803 in the first half games this season but has been outscored 861-841 in the second half of games. W&M is 13-0 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 23 of its 26 games. W&M ranks first in the CAA hitting 7.3 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 34.7-percent from range, which is second in the CAA, and 60th 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 14 games.  For the season, Hodgson is averaging 9.7 points per game (most among CAA freshman), with 2.9 rebounds, and 3.2 helpers per contest. Hodgson scored a career-high 24 points at UNCW on Feb. 10. Her 82.5-percent from the free throw line ranks her third in the CAA, while her 1.2 assists/turnover ratio is good for eighth.
 
- Boggs has been in double-figures in 23 of 26 games this season and has accomplished that feat in 48 of her last 56 contests. Boggs was selected to the Preseason All-CAA First-Team after a breakout junior season. The senior captain leads the team with 17.4 points per night and has added 7.0 rebounds and 4.1 assists per night. She is one of three players nationally to lead her team in points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks as of March 2. The senior has turned in 16, 20-point career games, which ranks her tied for sixth all-time in school history. She notched her second career- 30-point game with a season-high 32 points at Drexel on March 1.
