6 Manhattan on March 24 in the WBI semifinals, finishing the contest with 21 points. 3-peterson Last season, Amanda Peterson set the school s singleseason record for 3-pointers with 83. Peterson, however, has had the hot hand from beyond the arc again this year and broke her own record, currently with 98 treys this season. Her 98 treys are currently tied for second in C- USA single-season history with Louisville s Sara Nord. Cincinnati s Valerie King holds the record with 101 set in Tops in Triples With senior guard Amanda Peterson s success from beyond the arc this season, it s no surprise that UAB leads C-USA in 3-pointers per game. UAB averages a leagueleading 6.2 treys per contest, while the Blazers 6.3 average in league games tied for first with UCF. Keeping Up With the Jones Guard Amber Jones has had anything but a sophomore slump. Jones has 26 double-digit performances this season, including 24 of the last 29 games, and has been the top scorer for UAB in 12 contests. Jones earned her first start of the season against Austin Peay on Jan. 2 and produced 10 points, seven rebounds and four assists. Against Marshall on Jan. 30, Jones scored 22 points, one shy of her career-high, and knocked down a career-best five 3-pointers. She followed that with a career-high nine field goals and career-best five steals at SMU on Feb. 20. In the C-USA tournament opener against Marshall on March 9, Jones matched her career-high of 23 points, which she ironically set exactly one year before against SMU in the quarterfinals of the C-USA tournament. Jones continued her hot postseason play in the WBI. She has reached double figures in all three tournament games, including a 19-point performance against Manhattan on March 24. Jones went 5-for-6 from beyond the arc, matching her career-high for 3-pointers. Turn it Over The Blazers have forced their opponents into doubledigit turnovers in 122 consecutive games. The last time a UAB opponent turned the ball over less than 10 times was Hartford (8) on Nov. 23, Freshmen Phenoms Freshmen forwards Destiny Samuels and Karisma Chapman have become key components of the Blazer rotation this season. Samuels has appeared in 32 games and started the last 23. Against Tulane on Jan. 9, Samuels posted career-bests in rebounds (9) then added her career-high in scoring (10) against Marshall on Jan. 30. She matched her rebounding high with nine at UTEP on Feb. 6. and against at Manhattan on March 24.

Chapman posted her first career double-double with 12 points and 11 rebounds against East Carolina on Jan. 27. Against Tulsa on Feb. 10, Chapman scored a career-high 20 points and added a career-best four blocked shots. She posted a career-high five blocks against Central Arkansas on March 17 and also registered her fourth double-digit rebounding game with 11 boards in the contest. a good ol chapman C-USA All-Freshman honoree Karisma Chapman posted her first career double-double with 12 points and 11 rebounds against East Carolina on Jan. 27. It marked the first double-double for a Blazer since Tamika Dukes had 19 points and 13 rebounds in the C-USA tournament quarterfinals against SMU on March 7, Chapman also garnered C-USA Freshman of the week honors on Feb. 21 after averaging 15.0 points and 5.0 rebounds in a pair of games against Marshall and SMU. I ll Take That UAB s 20 steals against Marshall on Jan. 30 were the most for any C-USA team this season. The mark also represents the most steals for a UAB squad since the Blazers had 20 steals against Alabama State on Dec. 9, Peterson Leaving Her Mark Senior guard Amanda Peterson scored her 1,000th career point against Austin Peay on Jan. 2. Peterson is the 24th player in UAB history to crack the 1,000-point plateau and currently has 1,274 points, good for 16th in school history. A sturdy defense UAB s defense has been stellar this season. The Blazers have held their opponents to 50 points or less in 13 games and won 12 of those contests. UAB also is 18-7 when holding its opponents to less than 60 points. One of the biggest reasons for UAB s sturdy defense has been in the category of turnovers. UAB s opponents have turned the ball over 112 times more than the Blazers, while the Green and Gold have 99 more steals than the opposition. Brown s Best Junior center Meagan Brown has recorded career bests in points, rebounds and blocks this season. She grabbed a career-best 13 rebounds against UCF on Feb. 24 and scored a career-high 11 points at UCF on Jan. 14. Against Belmont on Dec. 5, Brown matched the school s single-game record with a career-high five blocked shots, a feat that hadn t been accomplished since 2000 when Deanna Jackson had five blocks against Memphis. Brown matched her career-high with five blocks against Tulsa on Feb. 10. Blazers Win five in a Row With their Dec. 20 win over Ball State, the Blazers earned their fifth-straight win. The last UAB five-game winning streak came near the conclusion of last season, when the Blazers closed out the regular season by winning three in a row then captured three-straight victories in the Conference USA Tournament for a six-game winning streak. Pratt s Debut Junior guard LaShaunda Pratt, who sat out last season after transferring from Boston College, made her debut for the Blazers in the season-opener against Florida A&M on Nov. 14. Pratt was solid in 18 minutes of action, scoring seven points and grabbing four rebounds. Since her debut, Pratt has been a key contributor for the Blazers. She has 15 double-digit games this season and has started 15 contests. Against UCF on Jan. 13. Pratt scored a career-high 21 points and posted five assists, in addition to five rebounds, three steals and a blocked shot.
