Liberty head women’s basketball coach Carey Green, in his 11th season with the
Lady Flames, has instilled quite a winning tradition during his tenure at the institution. His
teams have averaged more than 23 victories per year, putting his name alongside the nation’s premier women’s basketball coaches.
Green has accumulated a 246-81 record on the Liberty bench, good for a winning
percentage of .752. He currently ranks ninth all-time among NCAA Division I women’s
basketball coaches in winning percentage, ahead of renowned coaching names like Rutgers’ Vivian Stringer, LSU’s Van Chancellor and North Carolina’s Sylvia Hatchell.
More importantly, Liberty has won the Big South Tournament title and advanced to the
NCAA Tournament nine times with Green as head coach. Liberty has totaled 23 or more
victories during eight of those years, including the 2004-05 season, which saw the Lady
Flames reach the Sweet 16 for the first time in program history.
Green has actually been to the postseason on 21 occasions as a women’s basketball
coach, a span which includes a dozen years as an assistant coach at Clemson. In all but
one of the 21 appearances, he has experienced the NCAA Tournament.
Last season, Green earned his unprecedented fifth Big South Coach of the Year
award, after guiding a team decimated by ACL injuries to a 24-9 record and its 12th NCAA
Tournament appearance in the last 13 years. The Lady Flames also won the Hokie Hardwood Classic, claiming their first-ever victory over Virginia Tech in the tournament championship game.
At season’s end, Green saw his second player selected in the WNBA Draft, as Megan
Frazee was taken in the second round by the San Antonio Silver Stars. She then played
part of her rookie season alongside 2005 Liberty alum Katie (Feenstra) Mattera in San
Antonio.
Rebounding and defense have always been staples of Green-coached teams, and
the 2008-09 Lady Flames were no exception. Liberty outrebounded opponents by an average of 12.7 caroms per game, ranking second nationally. The Lady Flames have now
been listed among the nation’s top five teams in rebounding margin for six straight years.
Liberty led the nation in the category in 2003-04 and 2004-05. The Lady Flames also
ended the season ranked in the top 10 nationally for scoring defense (second, 52.6 ppg)
and field goal percentage defense (sixth, .345).
A key late-season conference victory over High Point in 2006 made Green the winningest coach in Big South Conference history. He is also Liberty’s career wins leader.
The 2004-05 year was a special one on Liberty Mountain, for many reasons. A seniorladen Lady Flames team recorded upset wins over No. 4 seed Penn State (78-70) and No.
5 seed DePaul (88-79) in the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament, becoming just the
second team ever to advance to the Sweet 16 as a No. 13 seed. The Lady Flames ended
the season with their highest national ranking to date, No. 21 (USA Today/ESPN).
Green’s track record shows he has the ability to meet those challenges. The Lady
Flames have recorded two wins over UNLV, Virginia and West Virginia and solo victories
over No. 19 DePaul, No. 17 Kansas State, No. 25 Penn State, Virginia Tech and Wake
Forest during Green’s tenure. The upset victory over No. 25 Virginia in 2003 marked Liberty’s first win over a Top 25 team.
His record against conference foes is equally impressive. He led the Lady Flames on
a Big South record 47-game winning streak and currently owns a .912 (155-15) winning
percentage against conference teams. Green has marched through conference play with
one or fewer setbacks seven times, while guiding the Lady Flames to two undefeated
conference seasons.

Scouting Longwood
A young Longwood team, featuring only one senior and one junior, enters Tuesday’s
game on a five-game losing streak. The Lancers are only 1-10 when playing away from
Willett Hall this season, but that one win was notable. Longwood claimed a 76-68 victory
at High Point, the current Big South Conference leader, in a game played Dec. 18 at the
Millis Center.
Six Lancers average between 6.6 and 10.2 points per game, led by Chelsea Coward,
a 6-1 freshman guard/forward. The native of Mechanicsville, Va., is Longwood’s lone double-digit scorer, at 10.2 ppg. Krystal Garrison, a 5-8 junior guard, has made a team-high
31 triples and posts 9.1 ppg. Becky Fernandes, the team’s lone senior and a 5-7 guard,
paces the Lancers in both rebounds (4.5 rpg) and assists (3.8 apg).
The Coaching Matchup
Liberty Head Coach Carey Green is in his 11th season with the Lady Flames, and has
led his team to nine Big South titles. A five-time Big South Coach of the Year, Green owns
a 246-81 career record and is the all-time wins leader at Liberty and among Big South
women’s basketball coaches. His career winning percentage (.752) ranked ninth all-time
among NCAA Division I women’s basketball coaches at the season’s outset. Green is 3-0
all-time versus Longwood.
Kristin Caruso is 28-45 in her third season as Longwood’s head coach and 60-124
in seven total years of collegiate head coaching. She served four years as Marist’s head
coach (1998-2002) and was a standout player at UConn (1987-90). Caruso has never
coached against Liberty.
Caruso was placed on an indefinite paid leave of absence on Jan. 6, making assistant
Mike Davis the acting head coach for the team’s recent losses at Campbell and Davidson.
Davis, in his first year on the Lancers’ staff, was most recently an AAU coach in Richmond
and played basketball at Virginia Tech from 1991-94.
Liberty-Longwood Series Notes
Longwood owns a 15-11 lead in the all-time head-to-head series between the pair of
Commonwealth foes, which dates back to Jan. 25, 1979. However, Liberty has won all
four meetings with the Lancers since becoming a Division I program, by an average of
27.5 points per contest.
Tuesday’s game will be the teams’ first matchup since a Jan. 5, 2007 contest at the
Vines Center. Liberty shot 58.6 percent from the field, on its way to an 82-48 triumph over
the Lancers. Two of the three Frazee triplets reached double digits for the Lady Flames,
as Molly tallied a game-high 14 points and Megan added a dozen markers. Keiva Stall
paced Longwood with 13 points.
The Lancers’ most recent victory over Liberty was a 95-88 triumph in Farmville, Va.,
Feb. 12, 1988. That was one of many close contests between the Lady Flames and Lancers during the 1980s. The former Mason-Dixon Conference rivals played 13 games which
were decided by single digits, including a trio of overtime contests.
Longwood is Liberty’s second-most common non-Big South opponent in program history, trailing only VCU (31 games).

2009-10 Opponents in Bold
New Year’s Resolution
Liberty owns a 157-106 all-time record in January contests, including a 73-9 mark
under head coach Carey Green. The Lady Flames’ 70-65 setback at Gardner-Webb on
Jan. 2 snapped a streak of 17 consecutive January wins for the Lady Flames.
Liberty is scheduled to play nine games this January, including five contests at the
Vines Center. The Lady Flames, 2-1 so far this month, currently own a 39-game home
winning streak during the month of January, since a 77-72 setback versus Elon, Jan. 13,
2000.
Competing Against the Commonwealth
Tuesday’s game against Longwood will be the Lady Flames’ third contest against a
Commonwealth opponent this season. Liberty is 0-2 versus Virginia opponents in 200910, suffering setbacks against a pair of teams which have spent time in the Top 25 this
year, James Madison and Virginia.
Liberty still has two Big South tilts scheduled against Radford, on Feb. 1 and March 5.
Trouble on Tuesday
Liberty defeated North Carolina A&T by a 57-51 count, last Tuesday at the Vines
Center. However, the Lady Flames are still below .500 in Tuesday contests thus far in
2009-10, going 2-3.
Liberty, which is 7-1 on all other days of the week, has lost to James Madison, Auburn
and Virginia in Tuesday tilts.
A Look Back
Liberty opened play in the decade of the 2010s Jan. 2 at Gardner-Webb, after closing
out the most successful decade in program history Dec. 29 at No. 21/23 Virginia. Here are
a few of the Lady Flames’ accomplishments during the 2000s.
-- Liberty went 238-75 (.760) during the decade, including a 154-14 (.917) mark against
Big South Conference opponents.
-- The Lady Flames won nine Big South Conference titles and made nine NCAA Tournament appearances, including a run to the “Sweet 16” in 2005.
-- Three different Lady Flames combined to win six Big South Player of the Year awards:
Katie Feenstra (2003, 2004 and 2005), Megan Frazee (2008 and 2009) and Sharon Wilkerson (2000).
-- Feenstra and Frazee became Liberty’s first two WNBA players in program history.
A Challenging Slate
A relatively young and inexperienced Liberty squad has faced a difficult schedule thus
far in 2009-10. North Carolina A&T was the 11th opponent in the Lady Flames’ first 13
games which has boasted a record of .500 or better at the time of the matchup.
The Lady Flames have also faced two teams (Virginia and James Madison) which
have appeared in the Top 25 at some point this season.
Amber Accumulates Assists
Senior Amber Mays tallied a career-high 10 assists during Saturday’s 67-38 victory over Winthrop, the most by a Lady Flame since Nov. 22, 2002. That evening, Daina
Staugaitiene dished out 10 helpers in a 90-35 season-opening win over Morgan State.
Mays is now averaging 4.7 assists per contest on the year. No Liberty point guard has
averaged that many assists for an entire season since 1997-98, when Sarah Wilkerson
distributed 5.1 apg.
Defense Causes a Drought
Part of a stellar defensive outing Saturday versus Winthrop, Liberty held the Eagles
without a made field goal for a span of 14:36, including parts of both halves. During that
time, the Lady Flames forced 10 turnovers and 12 missed shots and posted a 30-4 run.

Balanced Attack
Junior Dymond Morgan scored a career-high 11 points during Saturday’s triumph
over Winthrop, becoming the eighth different Lady Flame to score in double figures this
season.
Five-Game Homestand
After not playing a single home game for an entire month, the Lady Flames are in the
midst of five straight home tilts at the Vines Center, during a 14-day stretch (Jan. 5-18).
This is Liberty’s longest homestand of the season and the Lady Flames’ longest run of
home contests since January 2006. The 2005-06 Liberty squad played five straight games
at the Vines Center twice during that season.
70 is the Magic Number
Liberty is 4-0 this season when scoring at least 70 points in a game, extending a
lengthy streak. The Lady Flames have now won 86 consecutive games when reaching the
70-point plateau offensively.
No. 24 Boston College was the most recent team to defeat Liberty when the Lady
Flames tallied 70 points. The Eagles dealt the Lady Flames a 74-70 overtime loss, Dec.
6, 2003 at the Brown Classic.
Liberty has not dropped a game when scoring 70 points in regulation since Dec. 4,
2002. That day, the Lady Flames fell in a road contest at Commonwealth foe Richmond
by an 88-74 count.
Big Wins, Tight Losses
Liberty has won its nine games by wide margins this season, while keeping it close in
each of its four losses.
The Lady Flames’ eight victories have come by an average of 25.2 points. Liberty’s
tightest win was a 57-51 home victory over North Carolina A&T on Jan. 5.
Meanwhile, Liberty has lost its four games by a total of 30 points. James Madison
posted the widest margin of victory over the Lady Flames, defeating Liberty 60-50, Dec. 1
at the Vines Center.
Coach Green Versus the Big South
Liberty head coach Carey Green has enjoyed considerable success versus the Big
South with the Lady Flames. His teams are 155-15 against Big South opponents, including 128-14 in the regular season and 27-1 in the Big South Championship.
Green has never lost to his alma mater, Coastal Carolina (23-0), Charleston Southern
(23-0) or Presbyterian (3-0) during his time at Liberty.
Memorable Debut
Redshirt freshman Devon Brown was among four Lady Flames who made their collegiate debuts during Liberty’s 71-26 win over Winston-Salem State on Nov. 13. Brown led
Liberty with 26 points and added seven rebounds.
-- It was the most points a Lady Flame has scored in her collegiate debut since Elena Kisseleva scored 30 points against Bluefield on Nov. 23, 1996.
-- It marked the first time since Feb. 26, 1976 that a Liberty player has matched or exceeded the opponent’s score. That day, Trena Criss (33 points) outscored Roanoke College (22) by herself.
National Statistical Rankings
Through the contests of Jan. 7, the Lady Flames were ranked among the NCAA’s top
15 teams in five statistical categories. At that juncture, Liberty sat No. 4 in rebound margin
(+13.0), No. 7 in both scoring defense (51.5 ppg) and three-point field goal percentage
defense (.243), No. 9 in field goal percentage (.473) and No. 15 in field goal percentage
defense (.342).
No other team in the nation is ranked in the top 15 in all five of those categories. No. 1
Connecticut joins Liberty in the top 15 of every category but three-point field goal defense.

Tournament Tested
Liberty has played in a pair of tournaments this season, the Navy Classic (Nov. 20-21)
and the Marriott Cavalier Classic (Dec. 28-29). The Lady Flames won the Navy Classic,
while finishing second at this week’s Marriott Cavalier Classic.
Liberty has won four regular-season tournament championships during the last three
years, a list which also includes the 2008 National City Xavier Invitational, the 2008 UNLV
Lady Rebel Christmas Classic and the 2009 Hokie Hardwood Classic.
Clamping Down on Defense
The Lady Flames have held 97 consecutive opponents under 50 percent field goal
shooting. The last Liberty foe to sink more than half of its field goal attempts was Marist,
at the Maryland Terrapin Classic on Dec. 29, 2006.
In 2008-09, the Lady Flames ranked No. 6 nationally in field goal percentage defense,
allowing opponents to shoot just 34.5 percent for the season.
Liberty is off to a strong start this season, holding its first 13 opponents to 50.4 ppg
and 34.0 percent shooting from the field. The Lady Flames lead the Big South and rank in
the top 15 nationally in both categories.
Wanted for Theft
Liberty has employed an aggressive, trapping defense this season, helping the Lady
Flames rank second in the Big South with 11.0 steals per contest. Liberty has tallied double-digit steals 10 times in its first 13 games of the year. Leading the way is senior Amber
Mays, who has accounted for one-quarter (35) of the Lady Flames’ 140 thefts.
The Container is Half Full
This season, the Lady Flames are 5-0, when shooting 50 percent or higher from the
field. Liberty is now 64-0 under head coach Carey Green, when the Lady Flames sink at
least half of their field goals.
Liberty Versus Non-Conference Opposition
Liberty is 8-3 against non-conference opponents this season, boosting its all-time
non-conference ledger to 274-296. The Lady Flames have won 15 of their last 18 non-Big
South tilts at the Vines Center.
Liberty’s best-ever season against non-conference foes came in 1997-98, when the
Lady Flames went 14-1 outside the Big South. Liberty’s lone non-conference setback that
season came to eventual national champion Tennessee in the first round of the NCAA
Tournament.
Lady Flames to Face Wide Variety of Non-Conference Foes
Liberty is scheduled to face opponents from nine different conferences this season,
including ACC (Virginia), CAA (James Madison), Conference USA (Tulane), Ivy (Cornell),
MEAC (North Carolina A&T & Winston-Salem State), Patriot (Lafayette & Navy), SEC
(Auburn), Southern (UNC Greensboro) and WVIAC (Glenville State) foes.
Painting a Masterpiece
Last season, Liberty regularly controlled the area around the basket, outscoring 29 of
33 opponents in the “points in the paint” statistical category.
This year, the Lady Flames are off to an outstanding start in racking up “points in the
paint” once again. Liberty has outscored all 13 opponents inside the paint in 2009-10, by
an average margin of 24 points (39.8 to 15.8).
There is Only One
Starting point guard Amber Mays is the only senior on this year’s team roster. Liberty
has not had so few seniors since the 2005-06 Lady Flames played the season without a
single senior.
Mays has been a key contributor for this year’s team, leading the squad in assists (4.7
apg) and steals (2.7 apg), while ranking second on the Lady Flames in minutes played
(27.5 mpg) and third in scoring (8.6 ppg).

on Carey Green’s coaching staff. This season, she snapped a tie with Jeri (Wiley) Porter
as the longest-tenured assistant coach in Liberty women’s basketball history. Porter is
now the head coach at George Mason.

Same Number, New Face
A new Lady Flame is wearing No. 40 this year, after Megan Frazee donned the number for the last four seasons. Among many other accomplishments and accolades, Frazee
graduated as the No. 2 scorer (1,883 points) and No. 3 rebounder (951 rebounds) in program history, leaving some very big shoes to fill.
Liberty’s new No. 40, Devon Brown, has worn the number proudly so far. The redshirt freshman from Waynesboro, Va. is averaging 17.5 ppg and 8.8 rpg, pacing the Lady
Flames in both categories. She also leads the Big South in scoring, something no conference freshman has achieved since Liberty’s Elena Kisseleva in 1996-97.

was born in London, England, giving Liberty international players on its roster for the 16th
consecutive season. The last time the Lady Flames’ roster consisted solely of Americanborn players was the 1993-94 campaign. Every Carey Green-coached team at Liberty has
featured at least one international player.

who attended high school within 70 miles of the Liberty campus, joining Kylee Beecher
(Hidden Valley), Devon Brown (Waynesboro) and Brittany Campbell (Brookville).

Gaining Some National Recognition
Liberty earned a single vote in the most recent ESPN/USA Today Coaches Top 25
Poll, released on Dec. 8, marking the second straight week the Lady Flames received a
vote.
Liberty also collected one vote in the AP Top 25 Poll, released on Nov. 30.
Turning Up the Heat in the Furnace
The 2009-10 campaign is the 18th season the Liberty women’s basketball team has
called the Vines Center its full-time home. The “Furnace” has served as a favorable venue
for the Lady Flames over the years. Liberty is 193-52 (.788) all-time at the Vines Center,
including 10-2 last season.
The Lady Flames are 5-1 to start this year’s 15-game home schedule and are 101-10
in their last 111 home games, dating back to the 2001-02 season.
Noting the 90s
The Lady Flames scored a season-high 90 points during their Nov. 28 victory at Lafayette. It was the 10th time Liberty has reached the 90-point plateau under head coach
Carey Green.
The Lady Flames’ most recent 90-point outburst came during a 92-68 home win over
St. Paul’s, Dec. 13, 2008.
Liberty had not scored 90 points in a road game since a 94-75 triumph at Richmond,
Dec. 4, 1999 in the opening round of the Wachovia Women’s Invitational.
Corralling the Caroms
Liberty has ranked among the nation’s top five teams in rebounding margin for six
consecutive seasons, including a No. 2 listing in 2008-09. Even though two of the top
three rebounders from last year’s squad graduated, the Lady Flames have gotten off to a
strong start again this season.
Liberty has won the rebounding battle in 12 of its first 13 games this season, by an
average of 13.2 boards per contest. Leading the way are redshirt freshman Devon Brown
(8.8 rpg) and redshirt sophomore Avery Warley (7.7 rpg).
Lack of Overtime
Liberty has played only one overtime game in its last 192 outings, a 64-62 setback at
High Point on Jan. 20, 2007. Since that contest at the Millis Center, the Lady Flames have
played 91 consecutive games without needing extra time.
The Lady Flames’ most recent overtime victory came on Jan. 6, 2004, when Liberty
defeated American, 76-72, on the road in double overtime. No current Lady Flame has
won an overtime contest in college.
Liberty’s most recent overtime contest at the Vines Center was a memorable one. The
Lady Flames defeated Virginia, 77-69, in overtime on Nov. 26, 2002, to claim their firstever win over the Cavaliers. It also marked Liberty’s first win over a ranked opponent, as
Virginia entered the game with a No. 25 national ranking.
Big Shoes to Fill
Seven seniors graduated from last year’s Liberty team, which went 24-9 and won its
second consecutive Big South title. Alexandria Bream, Megan Frazee, Molly Frazee, Moriah Frazee, Rachel Hammond, Rebecca Lightfoot and Jessica Nelson accounted for 57.0
percent of the Lady Flames’ points and 41.7 percent of the team’s rebounds in 2008-09.
Headlining the group was Megan Frazee, who claimed the Big South Player of the
Year and Big South Championship MVP awards.
Youth will be Served
Underclassmen have stepped up to fill the void left by the seven seniors who graduated from the 2008-09 Liberty roster. Through the first 13 games of the 2009-10 campaign,
the Lady Flames’ freshmen and sophomores are accounting for 72.9 percent of the team’s
points and 75.3 percent of Liberty’s rebounds.
The Lady Flames’ top five rebounders are all either freshmen or sophomores, as are
five of the top six scorers.

Impressive Individual Effort
Devon Brown scored all 21 of her points between the 10:34 mark of the opening half
and the 13:42 mark of the second half, Saturday against Winthrop. During that stretch,
she single-handedly outscored the Eagles, 21-8.
Earlier this season, Brown matched Winston-Salem State’s total offensive output for
the game (26-26) on Nov. 13. She also outscored Navy during the second half of the Navy
Classic title contest (Nov. 20) by herself, 14-11.
Furious Comeback
The Lady Flames fell behind Navy, 20-4, 7:56 into the Navy Classic championship
game on Nov. 21. Liberty then outscored the host Midshipmen, 51-23, during the remainder of the game to claim an improbable 55-43 victory.
It was the Lady Flames’ largest comeback since Nov. 27, 2001, in a matchup with
VCU at the Vines Center. The Rams owned a 38-22 advantage with 18:41 remaining in
the second half, before the Lady Flames rallied for a 65-60 victory.
A Tale of Two Halves
Liberty has regularly stepped up its level of play during the second half this season.
The Lady Flames are outscoring opponents by an average score of 36.3-26.2 during the
final 20 minutes of play, thus far this season.
Liberty is shooting .521 from the field after halftime, while limiting opponents to a .324
second-half field goal percentage.
Freshman of the Week
LaKendra Washington’s 21-point, four-steal performance at Lafayette on Nov. 28 was
recognized by the Big South Conference on Dec. 1. The freshman guard was named the
Big South Freshman of the Week, marking the second consecutive week a Liberty rookie
was honored by the Big South.
First Since Frazee
After averaging 21.0 ppg and 10.7 rpg during Liberty’s 3-0 week, Devon Brown was
honored as Big South Player of the Week on Nov. 24. She became the first Lady Flames
freshman to win the award since Megan Frazee captured it twice during her rookie season
(Dec. 5, 2005 & Jan. 16, 2006).

Game 1
Lynchburg, Va.
Liberty’s defense set the tone for its seasonopening victory over Winston-Salem State,
keeping the Lady Rams off the scoreboard
for the first 8:44 of play. Meanwhile, redshirt
freshman Devon Brown took care of things at
the offensive end, exploding for 26 points in
the Lady Flames’ 71-26 triumph at the Vines
Center. As previously mentioned, the Rams
did not find the bottom of the net for the first
8:44, as Liberty jumped out to a 13-0 lead.
The first seven points of Brown’s collegiate
career came during the Lady Flames’ gameopening surge. The Rams scored six of the
contest’s next seven markers, trimming their
deficit to 14-6 on Jillian Charlet’s layup at
the 6:38 mark of the opening half. However, Winston-Salem State managed only six
points for the remainder of the stanza, while
Liberty’s lead ballooned to 18. Brown sent
the Lady Flames into halftime with a 30-12
advantage, swishing back-to-back triples in
the final minute of the period to close out at
15-point half. Liberty put the game away with
a 20-4 run to open the second half, sparked
by a pair of freshmen. Brown had 13 points
and LaKendra Washington tallied five markers during the surge, which lasted 9:09.
Winston-Salem State got no closer than 31
for the remainder of the contest, and the
Lady Flames went on to wrap up a 45-point
win, 71-26. It was the fewest points a Liberty
opponent has scored since the Lady Flames
limited Winthrop to 26 markers on Feb. 28,
2005.

Game 2
Lynchburg, Va.
Liberty held its second straight opponent
to below 30 percent field goal shooting and
put three players in double figures versus
UNC Greensboro. As a result, the Lady
Flames opened the campaign with their
second straight victory, a 60-42 triumph at
the Vines Center. Devon Brown scored 26
points for the second consecutive game to
open her college career. Neither team found
the bottom of the net for the first 2:38 of the
game, before UNC Greensboro’s Amanda
Leigh drained a 15-foot jumper to break the
ice. However, the blue-clad Spartans only
made one field goal over the next 10:37.
During their stretch of cold shooting, Liberty opened up a 16-4 lead, aided by six
Brown points. UNCG scored six of the next
nine points, trimming its deficit to 19-10 on
Lakiah Hyson’s jumper at the 5:27 mark.
The Spartans were still within nine at 23-14,
before Brown sparked a 9-3 Liberty burst
with seven points and a steal. Her theft led
to Amber Mays’ layup, which gave the Lady
Flames their largest lead of the opening half,
32-17. UNC Greensboro then scored the
stanza’s final four markers, cutting Liberty’s
halftime advantage to 11 points, 32-21. The
Spartans emerged from the locker room with
a 7-3 surge. Hyson’s triple at 16:51 closed
the run, bringing her team to within 35-28.
Another UNCG three-pointer, by Dayshaun
Richbow at 12:58, again cut Liberty’s edge
to seven, 41-34. However, the Spartans did
not make their next field goal until a Leigh
three-pointer 7:36 later. By that time, Liberty
had opened up a 54-38 advantage with a
13-4 run. Mays contributed five points to the
surge, which wrapped up with her layup at
the 6:58 mark. UNC Greensboro got no closer than 13 the rest of the evening, as Liberty
finished off a 60-42 victory in its first home
game against the Spartans since the 1997
Big South Championship title contest.

A 24-2 first-half run gave Liberty a lead it
never relinquished, and the Lady Flames
went on to win the opening game of the Navy
Classic, 63-52 over Tulane. After Tulane’s
Brittany Lindsey scored the game’s first hoop
on a lob play, the Green Wave only managed
two points over the next 12:46. During that
time, Liberty outscored green-uniformed Tulane, 24-2. Rachel McLeod scored six points
during the extended surge, including a pair
of free throws at 7:12 which gave the Lady
Flames a 24-4 advantage. The Green Wave
then began to chip away at their deficit. A
10-3 surge, capped off by Chassity Brown’s
triple from the top of the key, brought Tulane
to within 30-19, 10 seconds before the intermission. LaKendra Washington connected
on a driving layup as the buzzer sounded,
pushing Liberty’s halftime lead to 13 points,
at 32-19. Two triples by Indira Kaljo during
the first three minutes of the second period
helped Tulane cut the Lady Flames’ lead to
36-27. Brown then notched the last 10 points
of Liberty’s ensuing 12-1 run, including a 25foot three-pointer from the right wing as the
shot clock expired with 12:44 remaining on
the second-half clock. The Waynesboro, Va.,
native’s long-distance connection bolstered
the Lady Flames’ advantage back up to 4828. Tulane was not done yet, as two more
Kaljo trifectas bookended an 8-0 burst. Her
three-pointer at 10:48 made the score 48-36,
Liberty. The Lady Flames quickly pushed the
lead back to 16, 52-36, on baskets by Dymond Morgan and Brown within 42 seconds
following Kaljo’s triple. The Green Wave cut
their deficit to single digits one last time, at
61-52, when Lindsey canned a layup with
1:54 left. However, those were Tulane’s final
points of the afternoon.

Game 4
Annapolis, Md.
After falling behind by 16 points within the
game’s first eight minutes, Liberty came
back to win the Navy Classic championship
over host Navy, 55-43. Homestanding Navy
made seven of its first 10 field goal attempts,
opening up a 20-4 advantage to start the
game. Liberty then held Navy without a point
for nearly four and a half minutes. However,
the Lady Flames only managed a pair of Avery Warley layups during the home team’s
drought, cutting their deficit to 20-8 at the
7:55 mark of the opening half. A quick 5-0
burst, capped off by a second-chance layup
by LaKendra Washington, briefly brought
Liberty to within single digits, at 24-15, 5:43
before the intermission. The Midshipmen
bolstered their lead to 30-17, before Liberty
closed the stanza on a 7-2 run. The surge
featured Brown’s first five points of the
evening, including a three-pointer from the
right wing as the halftime buzzer sounded.
Her triple made the score 32-24, Navy, at
the break. Liberty’s defense held Navy to
one made field goal during the first 11:45 of
the second half. In the meantime, the Lady
Flames composed a 20-3 run, taking their
initial lead of the contest when Dymond
Morgan drained a runner as the shot clock
expired at 12:20. Her clutch hoop made the
score 36-35, Liberty. Brown tallied 10 points
during the extended surge, including an acrobatic layup at the 8:31 mark which lifted
the Lady Flames’ advantage to 44-35. Navy
trimmed Liberty’s lead to 46-41 with 4:41
left, after three-pointers by Erin Edwards
and Consedine. The Midshipmen were also
within five, 48-43, when Angela Myers converted a steal into a fast break layup at 1:27.
However, Navy did not score again, and the
Lady Flames closed out their win by making
seven-of-nine free throws during the final
minute.

Lafayette (1-5)

LaKendra Washington’s career-high 21
points paced four Liberty players in double figures at Lafayette, helping the Lady
Flames record an impressive 90-55 road
victory over the Leopards. Second-chance
hoops by Amber Mays and Avery Warley initiated a game-opening 6-0 run by the Lady
Flames. Lafayette quickly cut its deficit to 6-4
at 17:04, after notching its first two baskets
of the afternoon within a 21-second span.
However, that was as close as the Leopards got for the remainder of the opening
half. Another 6-0 burst by red-clad Liberty,
culminating with a Warley layup at the 14:47
mark, pushed the visitors’ advantage back to
12-4. Lafayette pulled to within three points,
6:12 before halftime, when Lauren Jackson
nailed the first three-pointer of the contest by
either team. Her long-distance connection
trimmed Liberty’s advantage to 23-20. The
Leopards still trailed by three, 29-26, before
the Lady Flames put together their best run
of the opening 20 minutes. Liberty outscored
Lafayette, 13-2, for the remainder of the
half, aided by six Washington tallies. As a
result, the Lady Flames took a 42-28 advantage into the locker room. Lafayette drained
three of its first four field goals to start the
second half, trimming Liberty’s lead to 4535 on Amanda Smith’s mid-range jumper at
17:05. The Leopards did not make another
field goal until the 8:19 mark, when Jackson
hit a jump shot from the right corner. During
that time, Liberty put the game away with a
19-2 surge. Brown totaled eight points during
the extended run, including a layup at 11:34
which made the score 64-37, Lady Flames.
Lafayette got no closer than 17 the rest of
the game, and Liberty remained unbeaten
with a 90-55 triumph in its first-ever meeting
with the Leopards.

Game 6
Lynchburg, Va.
Points came at a premium in a matchup between two unbeaten Commonwealth women’s basketball teams at the Vines Center.
In the end, visiting James Madison held off
Liberty for a 60-50 victory. James Madison
held the Lady Flames without a made field
goal for a total of 5:27, while the Dukes recorded an 11-1 run. Five straight points by
Kiara Francisco off the bench gave JMU an
11-3 lead, 13:55 before the intermission.
James Madison’s advantage reached 15
points, 22-7, when Nichelle Glover canned
a jumper from the paint at 6:12. A 5-0 Liberty burst, solely consisting of Devon Brown
free throws, pulled the Lady Flames to within
10, at 22-12. However, that was as close as
Liberty got for the remainder of the opening
stanza, which ended with James Madison
in front by a 28-16 margin. Liberty trimmed
its deficit to 10 twice during the opening
minute of the second half, including at 3020 on Kylee Beecher’s putback hoop. Williams’ free throw with 17:08 showing on
the second-half clock bolstered JMU’s lead
back to 36-22. The Lady Flames then limited
the Dukes to one made field goal over the
next 9:50, enabling homestanding Liberty to
compose an 11-2 run. Avery Warley split a
pair of free throws at the 10:05 mark of the
period, shaving JMU’s lead to 38-33. Tarik
Hislop swished a long triple, capping the
Dukes’ ensuing 9-2 surge. Her long-distance
connection gave James Madison a 47-35
edge with 7:17 remaining. Liberty made one
more charge at JMU, when four consecutive points by Warley narrowed the visitors’
advantage to 50-46 at 2:54. However, the
Dukes were able to put the game away by
scoring the next six points over a 2:13 span,
including four from the foul line.

Game 7
Lynchburg, Va.
Eight Lady Flames scored at least six points
in an 86-45 rout of Division II Glenville State.
Liberty grabbed a Vines Center-record 67
rebounds and racked up 64 points in the
paint. The Lady Flames jumped out to a 7-0
lead within the first 1:58 of play, with Devon
Brown contributing five of the points. Liberty’s advantage reached eight points, before
blue-clad Glenville State pulled to within 1411 with a 5-0 burst. Beth Deren’s three-pointer from the left corner at 14:21 capped off the
visitors’ surge. The Lady Flames then limited
the high-scoring Pioneers to two points over
the next eight minutes, tallying a 12-2 run
during the span. Dymond Morgan split a pair
of free throws, 7:39 before the break, giving
Liberty a 26-13 edge. Three-pointers by Miranda Reed and Ginny Petties highlighted
Glenville State’s ensuing 10-3 surge. Petties’
triple at the 3:35 mark closed the gap to 2923. Brown then scored seven points during
the Lady Flames’ 10-0, half-ending burst.
The surge bolstered Liberty’s halftime lead
to 39-23. Liberty scored the first six points of
the second half, extending its overall run to
16-0. Back-to-back layups by Brown pushed
the Lady Flames’ advantage to 22 points, at
45-23. Four straight Glenville State tallies
trimmed the Pioneers’ deficit to 18, 45-27,
with 16:51 remaining on the second-half
clock. Layups by Avery Warley bookended
a 9-0 Liberty run, which enabled the Lady
Flames to double up Glenville State’s score
once again, at 54-27. The Pioneers never
got any closer than 24 points down for the remainder of the game. Liberty’s lead reached
42 points, before the Lady Flames closed
out their second 40-point home win of the
season, 86-45.
Game 8
Auburn, Ala.
Liberty’s furious second-half comeback
sliced Auburn’s lead from 14 points to three.
However, the Tigers were able to fend off the
Lady Flames and hold on to claim a 70-64
victory at Beard-Eaves Memorial Coliseum.
The lead changed hands four times during
the early-going, and Devon Brown’s oldfashioned three-point play made the score
14-13, Auburn. The Lady Flames then
scored only two points over the next 9:44.
Liberty’s offensive drought enabled Auburn
to compose a 14-2 run, featuring three Alli
Smalley triples. Blanche Alverson’s transition layup wrapped up the surge, 3:37 before the intermission. Her hoop bolstered
the homestanding Tigers’ advantage to 2815. Alverson’s second triple of the opening
20 minutes sent the Tigers into the locker
room with a 33-19 lead. Liberty notched five
of the second half’s first six points, shaving
Auburn’s edge to 34-24 on Kylee Beecher’s
free throw with 18:45 remaining. Chantel
Hilliard pushed the Tigers’ lead back to 14,
44-30, when she made a baseline jumper
at 14:19. That was Auburn’s last made field
goal until Hilliard’s putback, 4:51 later. The
Lady Flames fashioned a 14-4 surge during
the span, culminating with LaKendra Washington’s first basket of the game, a driving layup at 9:51. Her conversion made the score
48-44, Auburn. Brown converted a lob pass
by Amber Mays into a layup at the 4:19 mark,
trimming the Lady Flames’ deficit to 57-54. A
5-0 Auburn spurt, finished off by KeKe Carrier’s foul shot at 1:38, increased the home
team’s lead to 62-54. Brown then nailed
back-to-back three-pointers from the left corner, sandwiching a Morgan Toles charity toss
for the Tigers. Brown’s second trifecta, which
came at the 50-second mark, closed the gap
to 63-60.That was as close as Liberty got,
though, as Auburn closed out the contest by
making seven out of eight free throws.

Devon Brown tallied 18 points against Cornell, leading three Lady Flames in double
digits. As a result, Liberty reached the Marriott Cavalier Classic title game with an impressive 70-40 victory over the Big Red at
John Paul Jones Arena. Liberty’s trapping
defense forced four early Cornell turnovers,
leading to an 8-0 Lady Flames advantage
out of the gate. Amber Mays’ steal and fast
break layup at the 16:00 mark punctuated
Liberty’s game-opening surge. Clare Fitzpatrick broke the ice with a 12-foot jumper
on Cornell’s ensuing possession, before
Liberty reeled off six more points in succession. Back-to-back hoops by Brown pushed
the Lady Flames’ lead to 14-2, 13:25 before
halftime. Cornell’s most successful stretch
of the opening 20 minutes saw the Big Red
hold the Lady Flames scoreless for 3:24.
Meanwhile, Cornell posted a 5-0 run, cutting its deficit to 20-11 when Allie Fedorowicz
connected on both ends of a one-and-one
at 6:43. However, the Big Red managed
only one more field goal, a Lauren Benson
three-pointer, for the remainder of the half.
Liberty closed the stanza with an 11-2 surge,
capped off by Brown’s fifth made field goal.
Her jumper put the Lady Flames in front,
31-14. The two teams traded hoops for the
first five minutes of the second period, before Liberty put the game away with an 18-2
surge. Jelena Antic, making the first start of
her young career, scored five points during
the extended run. Fellow freshman LaKendra Washington closed the surge with a
jumper at the 9:18 mark, giving Liberty its
largest lead of the night, 59-23. Liberty went
on to claim its fourth 30-point win of the season, 70-40.

Game 10
Charlottesville, Va.
Tournament MVP Monica Wright keyed
a late 8-0 Virginia run, helping the Cavaliers hold off Liberty and claim the Marriott
Cavalier Classic title. No. 21/23 Virginia
captured a hard-fought 63-54 victory over
the Lady Flames. Avery Warley scored the
Lady Flames’ first six points of the evening,
helping Liberty take an 8-5 advantage, 4:25
into the game. Virginia took its largest lead of
the early-going, 18-14, when Paulisha Kellum canned a layup at the 9:05 mark. Her
transition hoop capped a 6-0 Cavalier spurt.
The home team maintained a four-point
lead until Liberty fashioned a 10-0 run. Lady
Flame freshmen keyed the surge, which featured a LaKendra Washington old-fashioned
three-point play and a Jelena Antic triple.
The run gave blue-clad Liberty its largest
advantage of the game, 28-22. The Cavaliers responded with an 11-1 run over the
final 2:35 of the stanza, taking a 33-29 halftime advantage. Wright notched six of her
half-leading 13 points during the burst. The
Lady Flames emerged from the locker room
by scoring the second half’s first five points.
Amber Mays’ contested layup reclaimed the
lead for Liberty, 34-33. Five consecutive
points by Rachel McLeod boosted the Lady
Flames’ edge to 41-37, with 14:37 remaining
on the second-half clock. Visiting Liberty still
owned a 43-42 edge, before a 9-2 Cavalier
surge. Telia McCall contributed four points
to the run, including a pair of free throws at
8:09 which made the score 51-45, in favor
of Virginia. After the Lady Flames pulled to
within three on a Mays free throw with 7:06
left, Virginia put together its crucial 8-0 run.
McCall’s hoop at the 3:34 mark bolstered Virginia’s advantage to 59-48. Liberty pulled to
within seven points twice in the closing minutes, but ended up losing, 63-54.

Game 11
Boiling Springs, N.C.
Liberty was unable to recover from GardnerWebb’s 15-2 second-half run, Saturday afternoon at Paul Porter Arena. The Bulldogs
were able to hold off the hard-charging Lady
Flames, claiming a 70-65 victory in the Big
South Conference opener for both teams.
The Bulldogs, who never trailed in the rematch of the 2009 Big South Championship title game, took the lead early. Sandra
Vaitkute contributed four points to GardnerWebb’s game-opening 9-2 run, including a
perimeter jumper at 16:49 which punctuated
the surge. Gardner-Webb later posted a
6-0 burst, featuring five Dominique Hudson
points. Her charity tosses, 5:24 before intermission, gave the Bulldogs their largest
first-half lead, 25-16. Liberty then closed the
stanza with a 13-4 surge, keyed by Danika
Dale. She scored seven points in the final
4:25 of the half, including a layup from the
right block with 15 seconds to play which
made the halftime score a 29-29 tie. A Jelena
Antic triple from in front of the Lady Flames’
bench, exactly midway through the second
half, evened the score again, 40-40. However, the Bulldogs then posted their decisive
15-2 run, highlighted by a pair of old-fashioned three point plays by LaTroya Pope and
Margaret Roundtree. Gardner-Webb took its
largest lead of the contest, 55-42, when Monique Hudson sank two charity tosses with
5:40 remaining. Gardner-Webb still owned a
10-point lead, 65-55, with 34.7 seconds remaining. The Lady Flames then made one
last furious comeback attempt.Triples by
Dale and Devon Brown bookended a Liberty
8-2 surge, trimming the gap to 67-63 with 9.5
seconds on the clock. However, the Lady
Flames could get no closer. The Bulldogs’
Courtney Epps and Brianna Dillard combined to make three of four free throws in the
waning moments, sealing Gardner-Webb’s
70-65 victory.
Game 12
Lynchburg, Va.
Freshmen Devon Brown and Jelena Antic
combined for 31 points and 17 rebounds,,
helping Liberty claim a 57-51 victory over
North Carolina A&T. Blue-clad North Carolina A&T used four Jaquayla Berry points to
take a 4-2 advantage during the first 1:36 of
play. Liberty then outscored the Aggies, 237, over the next 10:29, with Antic accounting
for 12 of the Lady Flames’ points. Her pair
of free throws at the 7:55 mark gave Liberty
its largest lead of the opening stanza, 25-11.
The Aggies battled back and trimmed their
deficit to 31-25 after a Berry three-pointer
capped a 6-0 burst, 3:20 before halftime.
Liberty carried the same six-point advantage into the locker room at halftime, 33-27.
Back-to-back mid-range jumpers by Crystal
Murdaugh finished off a 7-0 North Carolina
A&T run, early in the second half. Her second hoop, which swished through the net
with 14:47 left, brought the Aggies to within
a single point, at 37-36. Liberty then turned
up its defensive pressure, limiting the visitors
to two points during the next eight minutes.
During the meantime, the Lady Flames’ advantage climbed back to nine points. Brown’s
tip-in at 8:34 made the score 47-38, Liberty.
North Carolina A&T responded with an 8-2
surge, pulling to within 49-46 with 4:15 to
play, after Amber Calvin made four foul shots
within a 30-second span. Antic and Brown
then combined to put the Aggies away. Antic
made two free throws and then assisted on a
Brown fast break layup, lifting Liberty to a 5346 edge with just 2:17 remaining. The Aggies
got no closer than five points down the rest
of the way, as the Lady Flames closed out
their first win in a game decided by 10 points
or fewer in 2009-10.

Game 13
Winthrop (6-8, 1-1) 38
January 9, 2010
Liberty (9-4, 1-1)
Liberty broke open a defensive struggle with
an 18-0 run which spanned both halves of
its Big South contest against Winthrop. The
Lady Flames went on to post their first conference victory of the 2009-10 season, by a
67-38 margin at the Vines Center. Winthrop
reeled off an early 10-0 run, including a pair
of three-pointers. Kaitlyn Rubino’s layup at
11:21 capped the burst, lifting the Eagles to
a 12-5 lead. Winthrop did not score again for
9:46, during which time Liberty posted a 10-0
surge of its own. Dymond Morgan scored six
of the Lady Flames’ points, including a free
throw 5:38 before the half which put Liberty in front, 15-12. The Eagles trimmed the
deficit to a single point, 17-16, at 1:21, when
Shanice Cole hit a pair of free throws. The
Lady Flames then closed the stanza with a
7-0 burst, highlighted by a nifty three-point
play. Rachel McLeod hit Devon Brown with
a behind-the-back pass in transition, setting
the redshirt freshman up for a left-handed layup. Brown sank the shot as she was fouled
and was able to complete the old-fashioned
three-point play from the charity stripe. The
Lady Flames tallied the second half’s first
11 points, extending their overall run to 18-0
and their advantage to 19. Brown’s threepointer from the right wing gave Liberty a 3516 cushion with 17:14 remaining.Winthrop
finally ended a drought of 14:36 between
made free throws on its ensuing possession,
when Cole hit a driving right-handed layup.
Hot-shooting Liberty then put the game away
with a 13-2 run, featuring seven more points
by Brown. Kylee Beecher’s three-point play
bolstered the Lady Flames’ edge to 48-20
with 12:38 left. The Eagles got no closer than
25 the rest of the evening, and Liberty led by
as many as 35 points before closing out a
67-38 triumph.
