The Game
The Murray State women's basketball team wraps up a two-game road trip Tuesday when it travels deep into the heart of the Delta to take on Mississippi Valley State. Tip-off from the Harrison HPER Complex in Itta Benna is scheduled for 11 a.m.
Series At A Glance
Tuesday will be the eighth all-time meeting between the Racers and the Delta Devilettes with Murray State leading the series, 6-1. The Racers have won both of the previous meetings in Itta Benna and Rechelle Turner is now 3-0 over MVSU's head coach Ashley Walker-Johnson.
Scouting The Delta Devilettes
Mississippi Valley is currently 0-2 on the season after losses at Ole Miss and UAB. The Deltas Devilettes are currently averaging 53.0 points on 27.7-percent shooting with 33.5 rebounds per game, while their opponents average 85.0 points on 47.6-percent shooting with 47.5 rebounds per game.
Zakiya Mahoney currently leads MVSU on the year with 14.5 points per game, to go along with 4.5 rebounds per game. Meanwhile, Mikayla Etienne and Sarah Moore lead the Delta Devilettes on the boards at 6.5 rebounds per game, while adding 10.0 and 6.5 points per game, respectively.
A Win Would...
A win Tuesday would give Murray State its third consecutive victory and second-straight road win.
Lights Out At The Line
The Racers were 13-for-14 at the line against the Mocs Friday, missing just one attempt at the charity stripe. Friday night's performance at the line increased MSU's free throw percentage to 79.2 which is currently the best in the OVC and 29th best in the nation.
Dangerous From Downtown
After going 4-for-4 from 3-point range Friday, Macey Turley has now made eight consecutive 3-pointers. The NCAA record for consecutive 3-pointers of 14 has been achieved on three separate occasions by Deana Lansing of Portland in 1996, Lauren Howell of Mt. St. Mary's in 2008 and Kelsey Jacobson on FGCU in 2012.
Winning Big On The Glass
Murray State entered Friday's game at Chattanooga with an average rebound margin of +18.0. The Racers finished their contest against the Mocs right on the money, out-rebounding Chattanooga, 44-26. MSU's +18.0 rebounding margin is currently the 8th-best in the nation.
