Scouting the Tribe
William and Mary returns home Thursday night to take on UNC Wilmington, after completing a three-game road swing on Sunday at Towson. Taysha Pye continues to rank among the league and national leaders in scoring at 18.0 ppg, and has stepped up her rebounding in recent weeks to take over the team lead in that category with 6.0 rpg. Behind the play of fourth-year guards Katherine DeHenzel and Katy Oblinger, the Tribe's passing has picked up recently as well, averaging 18.5 apg over the past week.
Scouting the Seahawks
UNC Wilmington is 17-5 overall and tied for second in the league at 9-2 after losing on the road at Georgia State on Sunday. The post combo of Martha White (13.4p-7.4r) and Brittany Blackwell (15.7p-8.5r) powers the Seahawks, and the Tribe will also look to shut down point guard Alisha Andrews, who is second in the CAA withe 4.9 apg.
