The Tigers' last outing was a narrow win over the SIU Salukis. After a first-half that saw lock-down defense, SIU was able to trim the lead in a big way, turning the blowout into a closely contested game. Memphis recovered enough to see the victory out, taking a 70-66 win on Wednesday.
Jamirah Shutes tied a season-high with 23 points on the afternoon, leading the Tigers in scoring for the fourth game this season. Another notable performance came from Dulcy Fankam Mendjiadeu, who logged her first-career double-double after putting up 12 points and 12 rebounds.
On the year, Shutes leads the team with 18.2 points per game, good for seventh in The American. She also leads the team with 4.2 assists per game, while leading the team with 13 steals.
Fankam Mendjiadeu tops the roster on the glass, pulling down 7.4 rebounds per contest. She is one of five Tigers averaging 4.6 or more rebounds per game, helping the Tigers outrebound opponents by 3.2 rebounds per game.
Scouting the Rockets
Toledo plays host to the Tigers after a close loss to Notre Dame on Wednesday. Leading by seven at the half, the Rockets were unable to hold onto the lead, falling to the Irish by three in a 54-51 final score. Nakiah Black and Mali Morgan-Elliot scored in double-figures in the loss.
Scoring for the Rockets is a committee effort, with eight players scoring four-plus points per game, led by Tatyana Davis' 9.7 points. Mariella Santucci leads the way with five assists per game, a mark that stands fifth in the MAC.
In the preseason poll, Toledo was selected to finish third in the MAC West Division, receiving two first-place votes. Led by 12th-year head coach Tricia Cullop, the Rockets look to continue the momentum from last season's 21-12 finish, which included a second-round appearance in the WNIT.
