WATCHING ONE THOUSAND Abigail Martin hopes to follow teammate Alysha Womack into the 1,000-point club, currently standing 15 points away. Just 15 players in Monmouth s Division I history have reached the 1,000-point plateau. KEEPING TURNOVERS DOWN KEY FOR MONMOUTH The Hawks posted a 16-1 record last season when turning the ball over the same or fewer times than their opponent. By contrast, Monmouth was 3-12 when committing more turnovers than the opposition. So far this season, Monmouth is 6-3 when committing the same or fewer turnovers, while 1-8 when committing the more turnovers than the opposition. MOVING TO THE MAAC On Dec. 14, Monmouth University announced that it will accept an invitation to join the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) beginning July 1, Monmouth will begin play as members of the MAAC in all sports that both currently sponsor in carly canning threes Carly Thibault has been shooting the three-point shot with confidence of late, knocking down 41.5 percent (27-65) of her trifecta tries over the last 11 games. She began the season shooting 31.8 percent (7-22) over the first seven games, but has responded with six games with three or more triples in the team s last 11 contests, including three with four three-pointers made. The stretch has pushed her past former teammate Alexis Canady (127) and Rachel Goodale (135) into fifth alltime at Monmouth in three-point field goals made with 142. She stands 10 behind Veronica Randolph (152) for fourth and 12 behind Niamh Dwyer (154) for third. THAT S EFFICIENCY Gabby Singer scored a season-high 16 points on 5-of-7 shooting from the floor, including 2-of-3 from long range, and 4-of-6 from the free-throw line at St. Francis Brooklyn on Jan. 21. She also added five rebounds, four assists and four steals. full court press Desperate times call for desperate measures. Down 15 points with under 14 minutes to go in the second half at LIU Brooklyn on Jan. 19, Monmouth Head Coach Jenny Palmateer put four guards on the floor and directed her team to go into a full-court press. The style forced eight straight misses over a period of four minutes and seven turnovers in just over seven minutes. The Hawks went on to defeat the Blackbirds on a last-second shot. Next time out at St. Francis Brooklyn, MU started four guards and the pressing scheme resulted in a 16-5 start to the contest, including a 16-0 run. Monmouth led by double digits for much of the game, a victory. SECOND HALF RESURGENCE Down 15 points with just over 13 minutes to go in regulation against LIU Brooklyn on Jan. 19, the Hawks turned up the defensive pressure to erase the deficit and take a dramatic victory. Monmouth forced eight straight missed field goals and three turnovers, before Cleandra Roberts made a putback at the 9:06 mark. Monmouth then forced four more turnovers and didn t allow a field goal attempt over the next four minutes. All told, Monmouth outscored LIU, 19-2, in the span of nearly nine minutes of game time. womack bounce back If Alysha Womack didn t prove that she s back to form with 14 points in 19 minutes against Saint Francis on Jan. 14, she surely did with 18 points, including 16 in the second half, in 25 minutes off the bench at LIU Brooklyn on Jan. 19.

3 chevy: the most dependable truck guard Down one point with 12 seconds on the clock at LIU Brooklyn on Jan. 19, the Hawks put the ball in Chevannah Paalvast s hands and spread the floor. The redshirt junior blew past her defender to the basket for the game-winning lay-up with 3.6 seconds left. ENGLISH IMPRESSES Sara English scored a career-high 14 points, including several key buckets, against Robert Morris on Jan. 12. English did her damage on 6-of-9 from the floor and 2-of-3 from the free-throw line, while also adding two blocked shots. SPAN-WHO? While Robert Morris junior standout Artemis Spanou went for a double-double of 14 points and 21 rebounds, a closer look shows that the Hawks held her to just 5-of-24 shooting, including an 0-7 showing from long range on Jan. 12. what s blue & white and all over the glass? Monmouth at Wagner. The Hawks outrebounded Wagner, 59-27, on Jan. 7 in Staten Island.

Martin did the damage on 6-for-6 shooting from the floor and 3-for-3 from the free-throw line. DOWNRIGHT DEFENSIVE The Hawks forced Lehigh into 28 turnovers on Nov. 25 and made 16 steals in the effort. The 16 steals were tied for the most by a Hawks team since Jan. 19, 2008, when Monmouth made 19 steals in a double-overtime victory over St. Francis (N.Y.). Monmouth also made 16 steals against Rider on Nov. 19, WE MUST PROTECT THIS...STABLER ARENA? The Hawks defense effectively shut down Lehigh s offense in the second half and overtime on Nov. 25, holding the Mountain Hawks without a field goal for a span of over 15 minutes and to just one field goal in a span covering more than 19 minutes. The lone Lehigh field goal in the span was a desperation heave from beyond NBA three-point range that appeared to be released after the shot clock had expired. PAALVAST PIVOTAL IN OVERTIME Chevannah Paalvast scored a game-high 15 points, including six in two overtime periods, in the Hawks double-overtime victory over Lehigh on Nov. 25. D.D.

For her effort, Dragicevic was named NEC Rookie of the Week on Nov. 26. Her previous career high of seven points came earlier this season at Gonzaga, while her season high in seven games played last season was just two points at Wake Forest. there when you need her Alysha Womack had easily her toughest game of the season at Lehigh, seeing her season-opening four-game streak of 20-point games snapped with an eight-point effort. But Womack was still instrumental in the win, scoring on a free throw and three-pointer to open the second overtime. The Hawks never trailed again after the mini scoring surge. WHOA-MACK Alysha Womack scored more than 20 points in each of the Hawks first four games this season and in six of a span of seven games for Monmouth, dating back to last season. Of her 17 career games scoring 20 points or more, she had never strung together three straight prior to the most-recent streak.

5 NO NEED FOR GREED Alysha Womack has done her fair share of scoring this season, but proved she could also distribute the ball with a career-high eight assists against Lafayette. She also hung 20 points on the Leopards on an efficient 8-for-14 shooting. GO WEST, YOUNG LADIES The Hawks visit to Washington State and Gonzaga marked the first games the program had played in the Pacific Time Zone since taking part in the St. Mary s/delta Faucet Classic in Moraga, Calif., in November FLYING TO THE BOARDS The Hawks grabbed a then-season-high 51 rebounds, Nov. 16, at Washington State. Abigail Martin and Sara English led seven Hawks with at least four rebounds each with eight boards apiece. Betsy Gadziala, Alysha Womack and Gabby Singer also added six rebounds apiece, while Carly Thibault (5) and Chevannah Paalvast (4) also made strong contributions. A LITTLE DEFENSIVE, ARE YOU? The Hawks held Lafayette without a field goal for nearly 11 minutes to start the game on Nov. 23. Monmouth held the Leopards to just 23.6 percent (13-55) shooting on the day, including just 14.3 percent (4-28) in the first half. Betsy Gadziala was the unsung hero on the day, holding 6-foot-7 Lafayette center Danielle Fiacco to just six points on 3-of-10 shooting and without an offensive rebound. Meanwhile, Gadziala grabbed a team-high nine rebounds and five different Hawks had two steals each. CAREER DAY Chevannah Paalvast and Betsy Gadziala enjoyed career days in spite of the Hawks setback to UMBC on Nov. 11. Paalvast posted a then-career-high 19 points, including 14 in the second half. Gadziala drew the starting assignment and set new career highs in rebounds (13) and assists (4), while tying her then-career high in steals (3). PRESEASON PROGNOSTICATION The NEC s coaches picked the Hawks to finish third (one first-place vote) this season, behind Quinnipiac (seven first-place votes) and Sacred Heart (four first-place votes). Alysha Womack was selected to the Preseason All-NEC Team after three-straight All-NEC Second Team selections the last three seasons. LIKE A ROCK Chevannah Paalvast produced perhaps the best all-around performance of her then two-year career with 14 points, four rebounds, four assists, three steals and two blocks in 30 minutes against Quinnipiac in the The sophomore wing posted the stat line while taking the defensive assignment of All-NEC First Team guard Felicia Barron. Paalvast held Barron to seven points on 2-for-14 shooting. THAT DON T IMPRESS MU MUCH The Hawks defeated LIU Brooklyn, which won 21 games, three times in , becoming the only team to beat the Blackbirds more than once last year. Monmouth took a victory in Brooklyn on Jan. 14, before winning twice at home within a week, on Feb. 25 and on March 3. DEJA VU ALL OVER AGAIN...AND AGAIN Alysha Womack was named to the All-NEC Second Team for the third-consecutive season in Womack averaged 15.9 points per game in 21 games played after returning from a knee injury that claimed the season s first 11 games. In 16 conference games played, Womack averaged 16.4 points per game, good for seventh in the league. The Hawks went on an eight-game winning streak, including their first win over a Big East program in Villanova since , upon Womack s return to the line-up. Monmouth posted a 16-5 record with Womack in the line-up after going 3-8 without her. WOMACK ONE THOUSAND With 16 points at Wagner on Feb. 18, Alysha Womack became the 15th player in Monmouth Division I history to eclipse 1,000 points. Womack also became just the fifth player in program D-I history to reach 1,000 points prior to their senior season, joining Michelle Cappadona, Amanda Rosato, Michelle Allen and Linda Wilson. CARLY three-bault Carly Thibault made a team-best 40.0 percent (48-120) from long range last season, including 5-of-7 in the season opener against UMBC on Nov. 13 and a perfect 4-for-4 on Jan. 14 at LIU Brooklyn. The junior guard opened the season shooting 49.0 percent (24-49) from long range through eight games, but suffered through a 2-for-23 (.087) stretch in the following seven games. Her 53.8 percent (21-39) performance in the next 12 games pushed her season percentage to 42.9 percent (47-111), before a 1-for-9 effort over the last five games caused a dip to 40.0 percent, still a team best. WHEN SHE S HOT, SHE DOESN T MISS Carly Thibault was the last of Monmouth s 10 players to score against FDU last Feb. 15, but she finished with a team-high 11 points. Thibault went 0-for-3, all from long range, in the first half, before making all of her three attempts in the second half, also all from three-point land, while adding a pair of free throws. All told, the junior sharpshooter did not miss in the second stanza.
