Back-to-Back Chanticleers defeated Presbyterian College on Feb. 5 they picked up back-to-back wins for the third time this season and first sine defeating Campbell and Coker in consecutive games to close out the month of November. The victories over Winthrop and Presbyterian also represent Coastal two Big South Conference wins this year. Under 50?... No ProbleM Coastal has scored under 50 points in both of its previous two contests, winning both by double-figures in the process. The Chants 48 points against Winthrop was good enough for a 19 point win while 47 against Presbyterian was a 13 point victory. Irick Comes Through Again After a two game slump where she only scored a combined nine points against High Point and Liberty, junior guard Olivia Irick has found her stroke once again. In the past three games she has totaled 43 points including a career-high 21 points at Radford. Against Presbyterian College on Feb. 5, Irick made her presence know down the stretch as she connected on two crucial three pointers to keep the Chants in front of the rallying Blue Hose. Irick then sank four foul shots in the final 38 second to seal the Chanticleer victory. 63 Combined Is Not Enough Winthrop s 29 points and Presbyterian s 34 points are the lowest ever allowed in back-to-back games by an Alan LeForce led Coastal Carolina team. In the two games, the Chants have used strong defensive pressure to force Winthrop and Presbyterian into 34 total turnovers and a combined meager 22.5 percent shooting average. Moss Picks up Fifth Double-Double Sydnei Moss pulled scored 18 points and pulled down 15 rebounds in the victory at Winthrop for her fifth double-double of the season. Her 15 boards were the most of her career eclipsing her previous best of 13 that she totaled twice. Chalk One Up In the Win Column Led by Sydnei Moss second consecutive doubledouble performance and Katie White s four blocked shots and numerous shot alterations, the Coastal Carolina women s basketball team snapped its seven game losing streak in dominating fashion to upend Winthrop Moss led all scorers in the contest with 18 points while Olivia Irick and Jessica Noll contributed ten and eight points respectively. Moss also pulled down a career-high 15 boards and tied a career-high with six thefts. The Chants shot 36.2 percent for the game and continued its improvement from the free throw line making 11-of-16 shots for 68.8 percent. Coastal also picked off eight Winthrop passes and dished out 10 helpers. Really?... Only 29 points? The Chanticleers only gave up 29 points to Winthrop on Jan. 31 in the win. The Eagles total was the fewest allowed by any Coastal Carolina team in a Big South Conference game. In addition, the 29 points was the third fewest Winthrop had scored at Winthrop Coliseum, its home court. 2

3 Winthrop Eagles Like Coastal, Winthrop only play one game during the past week dropping Longwood at home. Dequesha McClannahan, a freshman guard, leads Winthrop with 12.6 points per game which ranks sixth in the Big South. The Eagles lead the conference in field goal percentage defense allowing opponents to only shoot 35.0 percent from the floor. Winthrop ranks third in the Big South allowing only 56 points per game. Winthrop consistently attacks the boards as the Eagles have three player ranked in the top 20 in the Big South in rebounds... TaQuoia Hammick (9th, 6.1 rpg), Mary Hathaway (13th, 5.7 rpg), and Dequesha McClanahan (20, 4.4 rpg).

Winthop s 29 points were the third fewest scored by the Eagles at home in the history of Winthrop Coliseum and the lowest allowed by the Chanticleers in a Big South contest. Moss led all scorers in the contest with 18 points while Olivia Irick and Jessica Noll contributed ten and eight points respectively. Moss also pulled down a career-high 15 boards and tied a career-high with six thefts. The Chants shot 36.2 percent for the game and continued its improvement from the free throw line making 11-of-16 shots for 68.8 percent. Coastal also picked off eight Winthrop passes and dished out 10 helpers. Winthrop was paced by Dequesha McClanahan s nine points. Marry Hathaway collected 13 rebounds in the defeat. The Eagles shot a dismal 12-of-60 from the floor for 20.0 percent and only 6.3 percent from deep (1-of-16). Coastal opened up the second half on a 7-0 run to extend its lead to eleven at after just 2:10 had elapsed off the game clock. Noll had five points during the burst and Moss added two. Over the next eleven minutes of play the stingy Chanticleer defense limited the Eagles to only six points while continuing to force turnovers and ill advised shots. During the stretch Coastal would use an 11-6 scoring run to take a advantage with 6:45 to play. The advantage was the Chants largest since holding an 18 point advantage in its last victory at USC Upstate on Dec. 30. Coastal stormed out to an eight point advantage early in the (10-11, 3-5 Big South Conference) No. Name yr. Pos. Ht.

Winthrop would use layups on back-to-back possessions to pull within four with just under four minutes remaining in the stanza, but Moss answered on the offensive end with an 18 foot jumper to put Coastal back on top by a score of Winthrop would outscore Coastal 6-4 through the rest of the half to cut the Chanticleers lead to heading into the locker rooms. This was a great victory for our team tonight, said head coach Alan LeForce. We have been playing better as of late and tonight all of the pieces came together. Sydnei Moss had a fantastic ball game, she scored, rebounded, and played great defense. The whole team stepped up tonight.

Carter has also grabbed 16 rebounds and collected five steals since Dec. 12. Happy to Be Home Coastal returns home to Kimbel Arena, where they hold a 4-1 record, to play in front of the home crowd for only the third time since November 28. During the month of December, the Chants played six games with only two being at home. During the month the Chanticleers traveled to the Aces Winter Classic in Evansville, Ind., played in the Carolinas Challenge at the Myrtle Beach Convention Center, and trekked to Spartanburg, S.C. to play USC Upstate. Oh, What A Night After leading scorer Sydnei Moss went down in the fourth minute of the game against USC Upstate, Kira Carter and Katie White stepped up and knocked down shots to lead the Chants to victory. Carter scored a Chants season-high 21 points in the contest while White tied her career-high of 17 points. The two combined to shoot 15-of-22 from the floor and 8-of-12 from the free throw line. Heating UP Coastal Carolina s continual shooting improvement produced a season-best 54.0 percent shooting performance in the victory at USC Upstate.

Starters are ScorinG Over the past two games (Butler and USC Upstate) Coastal s starting lineup has scored 45-plus points. The Chants starters scored 46 points on 40.5 shooting in the defeat at the hands of Butler and accounted for 49 of the 70 points scored against USC Upstate. In the Upstate victory, the starting five shot a season-high 59.4 percent from the field. The Chants in Conference Openers Since 2000, Coastal is 4-6 in Big South Conference season openers. Last season Coastal fell to UNC Asheville The Chants most recent victory in the conference opener was during the campaign as the ladies from Conway pulled away from UNC Asheville by a final. Moss Raises the Bar Sydnei Moss raised the Chants season standards against Butler as she scored a season-high 20 points in the game and came away with six of Coastal s 13 steals. Moss points output and steals mark the Chanticleer season standard through this point in the year.

What is a Chanticleer? A Chanticleer (SHON-ti-cleer) gives Coastal Carolina University one of the most unique nicknames in all of sports. Chanticleer comes from Chaucer s Canterbury Tales and came to Coastal Carolina when the University was a member of the University of South Carolina system. A Chanticleer is a rooster who rules the barnyard with cunning and wit. His competitiveness never wanes as he battles to the end, using his brains to come out on top every time.
