Slump Buster
Senior Sabrina Lozada-Cabbage broke out of scoring slump with a big game vs. Houston on Sunday, Jan. 20. The Santa Fe, N.M., native registered a team-high 18 points on 6-of-11 shooting, including a career-best 3-of-5 from beyond the arc. Her scoring output was the most she's totaled since dropping 21 in the season opener vs. UAPB. It was her sixth game of 10 or more points this season, but first of the conference season. The last time she topped the 10-point mark was vs. Washington State on Dec. 20 in Las Vegas.

Bremaud Finding Her Groove
Freshman guard Carla Bremaud has reached double-figures in her last two games and three of the last four to take over the leading scorer role for the Shockers. Over her last two games she is averaging 15.5 points on 44.8 percent shooting. Bremaud set her season high in scoring at ECU on Jan. 9 with 18 points behind 7-of-14 shooting from the field and a 4-for-8 mark from beyond the arc.

Offensive Rebounds > Defensive Rebounds
Redshirt junior forward Raven Prince is on pace to finish the season with more offensive rebounds than defensive rebounds. Through 18 games this season, Prince has pulled down 81 total rebounds and 45 of them coming on the offensive end. That means 56 percent of her rebounds are giving the Shockers another opportunity to score. Wichita State has 226 total offensive rebounds and Prince makes up 20 percent of that number. Only three other Shockers have more than 20 boards on offense this year - Seraphine Bastin (26), Sabrina Lozada-Cabbage (24) and Alyssia Faye (20).

Bri Approaches 100
Senior forward Sabrina Lozada-Cabbage is just eight games away from playing her 100th career game in a Shocker uniform. The Santa Fe, N.M., native has played in 92 games, making 66 starts during her four-year career. So far this season she is just one of two Shockers to start every game - along with freshman guard Seraphine Bastin. As of now, she is on pace to reach No. 100 at USF on Feb. 23.

Home Sweet Home
Wichita State will play 18 games in front of its home crowd in 2018-19, marking the most home games in a single season. The Shockers have never played more than 17 games in a season on their own floor. Wichita State played 17 home contests in both 2008-09 and 2006-07 seasons.
