- W&M and Northeastern meet for the second time this year and the 25th time in series history on Friday night. The Huskies have won the last three meetings to take a 13-11 lead in the series, including a 61-55 victory on Jan. 19. In that game, sophomore Eva Hodgson scored a team-high 19 points with five assists, while redshirt sophomore Sydney Wagner finished with 13 points in a rebound.

- Tonight will be the 21st time W&M plays on Valentine's Day all-time. W&M owns a 9-11 record on Feb. 14 and fell to Delaware 69-53 in 2016 when it last played on Valentine's Day.

- For the fourth time this season, W&M hit the 80-point mark in its win over Charleston last Friday afternoon. It was the first time since that the Tribe scored 80 or more, and back-to-back games since Dec. 2 and Dec. 5, 2017, while it improved to 20-2 when reaching the mark under head coach Ed Swanson. The Green and Gold is first in the CAA and 84th in the NCAA averaging 69.7 points per game this year. 

- Sophomore Eva Hodgson was named the CAA Player of the Week for the week of Feb. 10. The sophomore had previously been named honorable mention player of the week twice this season. Last week she averaged 26.5 points in the Tribe's two wins. W&M has been honored seven times this year by the CAA as senior Victoria Reynolds was player of the week for the week of Dec. 9, while freshman Bre Bellamy has been named the rookie of the week three times. Additionally, Hodgson was named to the @NCAAWBB Starting Five team of the week for the week of Feb. 3. 

- Hodgson has come alive during the Tribe's three-game winning streak as she has averaged 29.0 points per game in the three victories. She became just the ninth player in school history with multiple 30-point performances in the same season and is just the second player in school history with back-to-back 30-point games. Hodgson joins Taysha Pye as the only other woman in W&M lore to score two 30-point games in her first two years. Now with 11 20-point games, is tied for third in school history for 20-point games in a single-game. 

- Furthermore, Hodgson has been the Tribe's leading scorer in all but three games. After scoring the most points in the Division I era in a season opener (27), Hodgson then scored the most points in W&M's DI era when she scored career-high 34 points at Elon. She is averaging 20.6 points per game, 3.8 rebounds, and 3.9assists. She leads the conference with 20.6 points per game (ninth in the NCAA), 56% from the field (26th in the NCAA), 43.7% from 3-point range (13th in the NCAA), and 90.9% (fourth in the NCAA). The sophomore has been in double-figures in 23 straight games, which is the longest streak in Division I school history, dating back to last year and has 11 20-point performances this year, including eight of the last 11 games. 

- This month, the William & Mary women's basketball team will be participating in the Play4Kay National Free Throw Challenge with all of their CAA conference mates. Fans can make a donation or a one-time pledge for each Tribe free throw during February. More info is available on TribeAthletics.com.

- Another key to the Tribe's success this season is getting three players in double-figures. W&M has posted a perfect 12-0 mark when three players reach the double-figure plateau, including its last win at UNCW.

- For the ninth time in under head coach Ed Swanson W&M shot better than 55% in a contest when it shot 58% against Charleston in January. The Tribe's 58.3% field goal percentage at VCU, the season-high, ranks tied for seventh under Swanson and is the seventh-best in school history. For the season, the Tribe is shooting 44.7%, which is tops in the CAA and ranks 27th nationally.

- Senior Victoria Reynolds has been turning it on since the George Washington game. She has been in double-figures in the 11 of the last 12 contests and is averaging 17.0 points per game during that stretch and has two double-doubles as well. A Preseason All-CAA Honorable Mention selection, Reynolds is second on the team averaging 15.3 points per game (seventh in the CAA) and leads the team with 6.6 rebounds a night. She has been in double-figures in 56 career games and has scored 1,125 career points. 

- Junior Bailey Eichner has enjoyed her enhanced role during her junior campaign and earned four straight starts from Jan. 24 to Feb. 7. Earlier this season, she scored a career-high 11 points in the win at East Carolina, before adding a career-high nine rebounds at George Washington. The Cudahy, Wisc. is averaging 3.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.0 steals, and 0.7 blocks per game. More impressively, Eichner is averaging 12.6 rebounds per 40-minute game. 

- W&M head coach Ed Swanson became the 69th head coach in Division I history to win his 500th career game against Hartford on Nov. 23, before becoming just the third W&M coach to win 100 career games with the Tribe against Charleston last month. To continue a milestone-driven season for Swanson, he was announced as an inductee to the Northeastern Conference Hall of Fame in late January. Now at 511 wins, Swanson ranks as the 33rd active head coach in the country in terms of wins, and with 105 wins as head coach of the Tribe, he is third all-time and is 42 away from all-time wins leader Debbie Taylor.
