A Season's Best Scoring Effort: Tatyana Reynolds poured in 22 points for Lourdes in the loss to Concordia (Mich.), the most by a Gray Wolf this season.  The senior is just the team's second 20-point scorer on the year, surpassing the 21 points Sydney Miller tallied in the season opener against Great Lakes Christian.  Reynolds' effort was the highest output for a Lourdes player since Jesse Fidler scored 28 points for the Gray Wolves at Siena Heights on Feb. 18, 2017.

From Long Range: Sara Semler made 5-of-8 three-point attempts on Sunday against Albion, and is shooting a team-best 40.7% from beyond the arc this season.  Her five triples matched a season high this season for the Gray Wolves, previously accomplished by Sydney Miller against Great Lakes Christian and Tatyana Reynolds against Concordia (Mich.) just five days prior.
