Meanwhile, Charleston Southern, the conference’s highest-scoring team (69.3 ppg),

Head Coach Carey Green
Record at Liberty: 234-76 (10th Year)
Career Record: Same
Eight Big South Championships: 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2008
Eight NCAA Appearances: 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 (Sweet 16), 2006, 2008
Four-time Big South Coach of the Year: 2000, 2003, 2006, 2008
Three-time VaSID State Coach of the Year: 2003, 2005, 2006
Liberty head women’s basketball coach Carey Green, in his 10th 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 during his time at Liberty, putting his
name alongside the nation’s premier women’s basketball coaches.
Green has accumulated a 234-76 record on the Liberty bench, good for a winning
percentage of .755. He entered the season ranked 10th among active 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 eight times with Green as head coach. Liberty has totaled 23 or more
victories during seven 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 20 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 20 appearances, he has experienced the NCAA Tournament.
Last season, Green led the Lady Flames to one of the best seasons in program history. Liberty tied a school record for victories, finishing the year 28-4. Along the way, the
Lady Flames captured three tournament titles—the National City Xavier Invitational, the
UNLV Lady Rebel Christmas Classic and their eighth Big South Championship in Green’s
nine years as head coach. The latter championship earned Liberty a spot in the NCAA
Tournament for the 11th time. Green won his 200th career game, Jan. 19 at Charleston
Southern, and became the first four-time Big South Women’s Basketball Coach of the
Year in conference history.
Rebounding and defense have always been staples of Green-coached teams, and
the 2007-08 Lady Flames were no exception. Liberty outrebounded opponents by an average of 10.2 caroms per game, ranking fifth nationally. The Lady Flames have now been
listed among the nation’s top five teams in rebounding margin for five-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 15 in the nation for field goal percentage defense (fourth) and
scoring defense (15th).
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 record-setting victory was just one of the many reasons the 2004-05 year was a
special one on Liberty Mountain. A senior-laden 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, 21st (USA Today/ESPN).
Green’s track record shows he has the ability to meet strong 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 57-game winning streak and currently owns a .915 (151-14) 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 Charleston Southern
Charleston Southern closed its regular season with three wins in its last five contests,
including a Feb. 21 victory over the Big South Championship’s No. 3 seed, Radford. The
Lady Buccaneers were also the only visiting team to win at the Millis Center this season,
defeating High Point by an 82-79 score on Feb. 9.
Leading the way for the high-powered Charleston Southern offense are a trio of strong
outside shooters--5-8 senior guard Pam Tolbert, 5-9 sophomore guard Katie Tull and 5-10
junior guard Kelsey Wasmer.
Tolbert is the conference’s scoring leader at 15.5 ppg. Tull follows with 13.7 ppg and is
shooting a team-best 40.8 percent from behind the three-point arc. Finally, Wasmer averages 10.7 ppg while ranking No. 19 nationally with 75 three-pointers made.
Coach Julie Goodenough’s squad also boasts a pair of players who have been tabbed
Big South Freshman of the Week this season--5-10 forward Ali Schwagmeyer and 5-5
guard Kiki Rutledge, the reigning weekly award winner.
The Coaching Matchup
Liberty Head Coach Carey Green is in his 10th season with the Lady Flames, and has
led his team to eight Big South titles. A four-time Big South Coach of the Year, Green owns
a 234-76 career record and is the all-time wins leader at Liberty and among Big South
women’s basketball coaches. His career winning percentage (.755) ranked 10th among
active NCAA Division I women’s basketball coaches at the season’s outset. Green is 22-0
all-time versus Charleston Southern.
Julie Goodenough is 30-59 in her third season at Charleston Southern and 241-174
in her 15th overall season as a collegiate head coach. Previous to her time with the Lady
Buccaneers, Goodenough was Oklahoma State’s head coach for three seasons (200305). She is 0-6 all-time versus Liberty.
Liberty-Charleston Southern Series Notes
Liberty, which scored 78.5 ppg in a pair of wins over Charleston Southern this season,
has defeated the Lady Buccaneers 24 consecutive times, by an average of 24.9 points per
game. The Lady Flames lead the all-time head-to-head series, 39-5.
Liberty defeated Charleston Southern, 76-51, on Jan. 24 at the Vines Center. The
Lady Flames then completed a sweep of the regular-season series, Feb. 23 at the CSU
Field House, with an 81-59 triumph. Megan Frazee averaged 20.0 ppg, 9.5 rpg and 6.0
apg in the pair of Liberty wins. As a team, the Lady Flames made a school-record 70.2
percent of their field goal attempts on Feb. 23 at Charleston Southern.
The Lady Flames are 4-0 all-time against Charleston Southern in Big South Championship matchups. The two teams have faced off in the first round only once previously,
at the teams’ most recent Big South Championship meeting, March 7, 2006 at the Vines
Center. Liberty won that game, 62-46, on its way to the tournament title. Michelle Parker
was the Lady Flames’ only double-digit scorer, totaling 13 points. CSU’s Keena Wicker
paced all players with 18 markers.
Charleston Southern’s last win over Liberty was a 66-60 decision at the CSU Field
House, Jan. 18, 1999. Katie LaRue paced the Lady Buccaneers with 14 points.

How’s This For Openers?
Liberty is 14-3 all-time in its opening game of the Big South Championship. The Lady
Flames have won 12 straight openers, since losing to UNC Greensboro, 84-40, in the first
round of the 1996 tournament.
Breaking it Down by Location
Liberty is 17-0 in Big South Championship contests played at home, 0-1 on the road
and 16-5 when games are played at neutral sites. The Lady Flames’ lone road contest
was a 70-62 setback at Radford in the 1993 semifinal round.
Familiar Territory
For the 11th time in the last 12 seasons, Liberty enters the Big South Championship
as the No. 1 seed. The Lady Flames have captured the tournament title on all 10 previous
occasions they have owned the top seed. Their other Big South championship came in
1997, as the No. 2 seed.
All-time, Liberty has been seeded No. 1 11 times, No. 2 once, No. 3 twice, No. 6 twice,
No. 7 once and No. 8 once. The Lady Flames have never won the tournament championship when seeded No. 3 or lower.
Success Versus Current Big South Teams
Liberty is 26-3 in Big South Championship games against the seven other teams currently eligible for the tournament. Radford is the only current conference member which
has ever defeated the Lady Flames in the tournament, doing so in 1993, 1994 and 2007.
Avoiding the Upset
The Lady Flames own a 31-0 record all-time in the Big South Championship, when
the Lady Flames are seeded higher than their opponents.
Commonwealth Teams in the Championship Game
Either Liberty or Radford has appeared in all 22 Big South Championship title games
in conference history. However, last season was the first time the Lady Flames and Highlanders had ever faced each other in the championship game.
Attempting to Bounce Back
For only the sixth time in program history, Liberty lost its final regular-season game
before the start of the Big South Championship. The Lady Flames won the 1997 title, after
falling to Winthrop in their final regular-season matchup. Most recently, however, Liberty
fell to Radford, 57-55, in the 2007 semifinal round, after dropping its season finale to the
same Radford squad.
Lack of Overtime
None of Liberty’s 39 Big South Championship contests have gone to overtime. Most
of the time, the games have been decided by a wide margin, as 28 of the Lady Flames’
tournament tilts have featured a double-digit spread between the two teams.
A Look Back
Liberty opened the 2008 Big South Championship at the Justice Center in Asheville,
N.C., as the No. 1 seed and enjoyed a first-round bye.
On the second day of the tournament, the Lady Flames met No. 4 seed High Point in
the semifinal round. Seven Liberty players scored eight or more points in a comfortable,
80-43 win. Megan Frazee led the way with 17 points and seven rebounds, despite being
limited to 16 minutes of work due to foul trouble. Jurica Hargraves paced the Panthers
with 20 points and six triples.
Liberty then faced Commonwealth rival and No. 2 seed Radford in the championship
game, the following afternoon. The Lady Flames came back from an 11-point secondhalf deficit and scored the winning basket with just 0.3 seconds remaining, when Megan
Frazee’s over-the-head flip from close range found the bottom of the net. Tournament
MVP Frazee totaled 26 points and 12 boards in Liberty’s dramatic, 66-65 win. Kelli Darden
was the Highlanders’ star, posting 21 poitns and nine caroms.

Masterful in March
Liberty has gone 33-11 during the month of March under Carey Green, with eight of
the setbacks coming in the NCAA Tournament. The Lady Flames are 9-2 in the regular
season, 22-1 in the Big South Championship and 2-8 in the “Big Dance” during the year’s
third month, under his direction. Last season, Liberty went 4-1 in March. This year, the
Lady Flames are off to a 2-1 start during the calendar year’s third month.
The Lady Flames are 41-36 all-time in March contests and did not pick up their first
victory in the month until the program’s 13th season. Liberty’s initial March triumph was an
82-69 win over Randolph-Macon on March 3, 1988.
Making Some History
Liberty’s 80-61 win at Radford on March 6 was the Lady Flames’ 15th conference
victory this season. Liberty becomes the first Big South women’s basketball team ever to
win 15 conference games in a single season. Four previous Big South squads (including
Liberty in both 2002-03 and 2003-04) had posted 14 conference victories.
We Are the (Regular-Season) Champions!
Liberty’s 81-59 win at Charleston Southern on Feb. 23 not only kept the Lady Flames
unbeaten in conference play, but it clinched the outright Big South regular-season title.
Liberty has now captured 11 conference regular-season crowns in the last 12 years.

2008-09 Opponents in Bold
National Leader
The Lady Flames enter the postseason as the nation’s No. 1 team for rebounding
margin, with a +12.3 margin. Liberty owns a slight lead over Stanford, after outrebounding
25 of its 29 opponents this season.
Liberty has led the nation in rebounding margin on two previous occasions, doing so
in back-to-back seasons (2003-04 and 2004-05). The Lady Flames are 19-6 this season,
when outrebounding their foes.
Magic Number is 65
Liberty enjoys life in the fast lane. When the Lady Flames’ offense has scored 65 or
more points this season, Liberty is 10-0. However, the Lady Flames are just 11-8 when
failng to reach the 65-point plateau.
A Star On the Court and In the Classroom
Megan Frazee, a kinesiology major with a 3.91 cumulative GPA, was recognized on
Feb. 23 as a first-team ESPN The Magazine Academic All-American. A second team Academic All-American last season, Frazee is the first Lady Flame ever to earn first-team status. She is Liberty’s sixth first-team honoree at the Division I level, in all sports. Frazee is
also the fourth individual in school history to earn multiple Academic All-America honors.
Coach Green Versus the Big South
Liberty head coach Carey Green has enjoyed considerable success versus the Big
South during his first nine seasons with the Lady Flames. His teams are 151-14 against
Big South opponents, including 127-13 in the regular season and 24-1 in the Big South
Championship.
Green has never lost to his alma mater, Coastal Carolina (23-0), or Charleston Southern (22-0) during his time at Liberty.
First Since Feenstra
When Rachel Hammond tallied a career-high 25 points against High Point on Jan. 31,
she became the first Liberty player not named Frazee to score 20 points in a game since
March 22, 2005. That day, Katie Feenstra went for 29 points against DePaul, sending the
Lady Flames into the NCAA Tournament’s Sweet 16.
Winning Streaks
The Lady Flames’ 18-game winning streak, halted at High Point on Monday, was the
fourth longest in program history and the longest since the 2003-04 campaign.
Here is a look at the Lady Flames’ longest winning streaks, eight of which have come
with Carey Green as head coach.

half of Liberty’s Jan. 24 game against Charleston Southern. The foul shots gave Frazee
1,000 points, making her the 12th player in program history to reach the milestone.
Frazee’s sister Megan is also a member of the 1,000-point club, as are twin sisters
Sarah and Sharon Wilkerson, who graduated in 2000. Liberty is the only NCAA Division I

Attracting the Voters’ Attention
Liberty, which closed the regular season with 18 wins in its last 19 games, earned
a single vote in the March 10 ESPN/USA Today Coaches Top 25 poll. The Lady Flames
were also listed among the “Others Receiving Votes” for three weeks early in the season,
a streak which ended with the Nov. 25 poll.
20-20 Club
Liberty has made Big South Conference basketball history this season. Not only have
the Lady Flames reached the 20-win plateau, but Coach Ritchie McKay’s squad also
owns a 22-11 ledger, through the Big South Men’s Basketball Championship.
The university boasts a pair of 20-win basketball teams for only the second time in
program history. In 1996-97, the Lady Flames went 22-7, while their male counterparts
racked up a 23-9 mark.
The feat had only been accomplished on four previous occasions in Big South annals:
by Radford in 1991-92, UNC Greensboro in 1994-95, Liberty in 1996-97 and Winthrop last
season. Liberty is the first conference school to make two appearances in the 20/20 club.
A Daunting Non-Conference Slate
The Lady Flames’ non-conference schedule was billed as one of the toughest in program history, and it lived up to its reputation. Liberty’s Division I non-conference foes eligible for conference play combined to win 73.9 of their conference games, going 136-48.
Three of Liberty’s non-conference opponents (East Tennessee State-Atlantic Sun,
Vanderbilt-SEC and Western Carolina-Southern) have already won their respective conference tournament championships.
Liberty in Tournaments
Liberty participated in a trio of early-season tournaments, going a combined 3-4 in the
Preseason WNIT (Nov. 14-22), GW Thanksgiving Classic (Nov. 28-29) and Hokie Hardwood Classic (Dec. 29-30).
The Lady Flames captured the Hokie Hardwood Classic championship, posting victories over North Carolina A&T and host Virginia Tech at Cassell Coliseum. The title was
Liberty’s third regular-season tournament championship in the last two seasons, including
the 2007 National City Xavier Invitational and UNLV Lady Rebel Christmas Classic.
Liberty in the National Rankings
The Lady Flames have been surging upward in the NCAA national statistical rankings.
Liberty now ranks in the top 10 nationally in four statistical categories (through the games
of March 8). The Lady Flames lead the nation in rebounding margin (+12.3) and sit No. 3
in scoring defense (52.1 ppg), No. 4 in field goal percentage defense (.340) and No. 7 in
field goal percentage (.462).
Liberty and No. 1 Connecticut are the only two teams in the nation which rank in the
top 10 of all four of those categories.
Lack of Overtime
Liberty has played only one overtime game in its last 175 outings, a 64-62 setback at
High Point on Jan. 20, 2007.
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.
The Container is Half Full
Liberty connected on 62.5 percent (30-of-48) of its field goal attempts versus Radford
on March 6, shooting over 50 percent for the eighth time in the regular season’s last 12
games. The Lady Flames are 9-0 this year, when making more than half of their field
goals. Liberty is now 58-0 in such contests under head coach Carey Green.

Free Throws are Falling
Liberty is the Big South’s best free throw shooting team, making 68.8 percent of its
attempts on the season. However, the Lady Flames were in rare form March 2 against
Presbyterian. Liberty made its first 14 foul shots of the night and ended the game at 17of-19 (89.5 percent). The program single-game record for free throw accuracy is 18-of-19
(94.7 percent).
Individually, Moriah Frazee shot eight-for-eight from the charity stripe against the Blue
Hose, pacing Liberty’s team sharpshooting.
Chief Thiefs
Starting guards Amber Mays and Rachel Hammond have been keys to Liberty’s defensive efforts, as they rank fifth and 10th, respectively, on the Big South steals leaderboard.
Mays has notched 42 steals in the past 16 games (2.6 spg average), including a career-high eight-steal effort versus East Tennessee State on Jan. 13. Her eight steals were
the most by a Lady Flame since Sharon Wilkerson recorded eight thefts at High Point on
Feb. 21, 2000. Mays tied for the fifth-most steals in a single game in Liberty history. The
junior is the first Lady Flame to tally at least 50 steals in a season since 1999-2000.
Meanwhile, Hammond has been a consistent disruptive force on defense this season,
tallying multiple steals 14 times. As a result, the senior has established a career high with
46 steals.
Backcourt mates Mays and Hammond have combined for 108 steals, the most thefts
by a Liberty duo since head coach Carey Green’s first season at Liberty, 1999-2000. That
year, Sharon Wilkerson and Elena Kisseleva totaled 136 steals.
Triple the Trouble
Liberty sports the only set of triplets currently playing for the same NCAA Division
I women’s basketball team--seniors Megan, Molly and Moriah Frazee. Career totals of
1,000 points and 500 rebounds represent a very solid collegiate performer. The Frazee
triplets have averaged more than 1,000 points and 500 rebounds between them.
During Liberty’s Jan. 3 victory over Gardner-Webb, the triplets exceeded the 3,000-career point total. Megan, Molly and Moriah Frazee have totaled 3,493 points and 1,810 rebounds during their time at Liberty. Those figures represent more than 40 percent of the
Lady Flames’ points and more than a third of the team’s rebounds since they arrived on
campus.
On March 6 at Radford, Megan and Moriah Frazee combined to score 46 points, including 32 in the first half.
Chasing A Record
Megan Frazee has posted 12 double-doubles this season, including one in eight of
her last 10 outings, pushing her career total to 48. Katie Feenstra owns the program record, with 49 career double-doubles.
Clamping Down on Defense
The Lady Flames have held 80 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.
Liberty is off to a good start defensively in 2008-09. Twenty-three of the Lady Flames’
first 29 opponents have shot below 40 percent from the floor. Liberty leads the Big South
and ranks No. 4 nationally with a .340 opponents field goal percentage.
Windex Warley Climbing the Charts
Avery Warley has not only ranked among the Big South rebounding leaders throughout her first season in a Liberty uniform, but she has also taken her place among the top
freshman rebounders in program history.
Warley has tallied 211 rebounds through her first 29 games with the Lady Flames,
ranking fourth among Liberty freshmen. The Washington, D.C., native trails only Cheri
Yates (267 rebounds in 1988-89), Elena Kisseleva (248 rebounds in 1996-97) and Michelle Fricke (226 rebounds in 1999-2000) on the Lady Flames’ freshman record list.

Frazee Fridays
Megan Frazee has enjoyed Friday games this season, averaging 25.3 ppg and 10.3
rpg in three Friday outings. She hit a last-second, game-winning layup versus UC Riverside on Friday, Nov. 21 in the Preseason WNIT.
International Flavor
The addition of Tokyo, Japan native Jessica Nelson to the Lady Flames’ roster gives
Liberty an international player for the 15th consecutive season. The last time the Lady
Flames’ roster consisted solely of American-born players was the 1993-94 campaign.
Milestone Victory
Liberty is 505-404 all-time in women’s basketball, since the inception of the program
in 1975-76. The Lady Flames picked up win No. 500 in program history, Feb. 16 versus
Winthrop. Here is a look at some of Liberty’s milestone triumphs.

Down, But Not Out
On Jan. 13, East Tennessee State ran out to an early seven-point advantage at the
Vines Center, before Liberty rallied for a 64-54 win. It was the fifth time the Lady Flames
have erased a six-point deficit to win this season (also UC Riverside, North Carolina A&T,
Virginia Tech and Winthrop).
Liberty’s largest rally of the season came on Dec. 30, in the Hokie Hardwood Classic
title game against Virginia Tech. The Hokies led by eight points midway through the second half, but the Lady Flames came back to notch a 45-43 triumph.
Less Than a Point Per Minute
Liberty held Presbyterian to 11 first-half points on March 2, marking the seventh time
this season, the Lady Flames have limited their opponent to fewer than 20 first-half markers. Liberty has gone on to win all seven contests.
During the Lady Flames’ last 19 games, they have outscored their opponents by an
average score of 32.7 to 22.1 in the first half.
Liberty Triumvirate
Megan Frazee now ranks No. 7 all-time in the Big South for points (1,809) and No. 5
for rebounds (912). She is one of three players to rank in the top 10 of both categories.
The other two include former Liberty standouts, Katie Feenstra and Elena Kisseleva.
If Frazee scores at least 37 points at the Big South Championship, she will become
the conference’s only player to rank in the top 5 for both points and rebounds.
Painting a Masterpiece
With five players 6-2 or taller in Carey Green’s eight-man rotation, the Lady Flames
are the tallest team in the Big South Conference. The Lady Flames have used their size to
their advantage this season, outscoring all 16 conference foes in the “points in the paint”
category. Liberty is winning the “points in the paint” battle by an average of 17.8 points per
contest, within conference play.
Power Outage
Liberty’s opponents have found it difficult to light up the scoreboard against the Lady
Flames this season. The Lady Flames rank No. 3 nationally, yielding only 52.3 ppg. The
figure is well below Liberty’s single-season record for fewest points allowed, 54.7, during
the 2001-02 season.
Liberty held 17 straight opponents to fewer than 60 points, between Dec. 29 and March
2. On the year, the Lady Flames have kept 14 opponents from reaching the 50-point mark.

Game 1
Lynchburg, Va.
Liberty battled back from a 21-4 deficit in
its season opener to take a pair of secondhalf leads. However, visiting VCU edged
the Lady Flames, 59-57, in a first-round
Preseason WNIT contest, as Radoslava
Bachvarova drained three free throws with
just 2.1 seconds left. VCU tallied the evening’s first 12 points, before Megan Frazee
canned a one-handed floater from six feet,
at the 14:10 mark of the opening half. The
Rams later notched nine straight points,
bolstering their advantage to 21-4 at 10:48.
Liberty limited VCU to one field goal over the
final 4:20 of the opening stanza, running off
an 11-2 surge in the meantime and closing
the gap to 31-27 at the intermission. Megan
Frazee finally gave Liberty its initial lead of
the contest, 45-44, draining a three-pointer
from the right wing at the 11:02 mark. The
Lady Flames’ next lead did not come until
4:30 remained on the game clock, when Megan Frazee found Avery Warley for an open
layup. Warley’s basket was part of a 7-0
Liberty burst. Megan Frazee’s reverse layup
at 3:11 capped the run, increasing the Lady
Flames’ lead to 54-51. VCU came back to tie
things up again, 54-54, when Quanitra Hollingsworth split a pair of free throws with 2:18
remaining, setting the stage for a frenetic final minute of play. Mays put Liberty on top,
56-54, with a driving layup at the 44-second
mark, before Hollingsworth answered with a
hoop from in close, 10 seconds later. Warley went to the free throw line on the Lady
Flames’ ensuing possession, splitting a pair
of free throws with 6.4 seconds remaining.
Her connection briefly put Liberty in front,
57-56, before Bachvarova’s clutch charity
tosses for the Rams.

Game 2
Cullowhee, N.C.
Megan Frazee banked in a layup from the
left side of the lane as the buzzer sounded,
giving the Lady Flames a thrilling, 45-44 win
over UC Riverside in a Preseason WNIT
consolation contest at the Ramsey Center in
Cullowhee, N.C. The Highlanders had taken
a 44-43 advantage with just 3.3 seconds left,
when Alyssa Morris made a tightly-contested
three-pointer from the right wing. Her hoop
capped a 9-0 UC Riverside surge, consisting
solely of triples. UC Riverside appeared to
seal its first victory of the year, when Roney
Friend intercepted Liberty’s inbounds pass
with 0.9 ticks remaining. However, Friend
shuffled her feet, giving the Lady Flames
one final opportunity, with the ball out of
bounds under the basket. Rachel Hammond
bounced the inbounds pass to a cutting
Frazee, who calmly sank the game-winning
shot from close range. Liberty notched the
evening’s first seven points, keeping the
Highlanders off the scoreboard for the first
5:29 of play. The game was deadlocked at
15 apiece, before the Highlanders suffered
another extended scoring drought. Liberty
kept UC Riverside scoreless for 4:19, reeling
off seven consecutive points in the meantime. Amber Mays split a pair of free throws
2:25 before halftime, giving the Lady Flames
a 22-15 edge. Liberty led 22-17 at the intermission. It was UC Riverside which opened
the second half on a roll. The Highlanders
recorded the first nine points of the stanza.
Tainoisouti Lott’s layup at the 15:53 mark
increased UC Riverside’s first advantage of
the contest to 26-22. Four straight tallies by
Friend boosted the Highlanders to their largest lead, 32-26, with 12:26 showing on the
second-half clock. Liberty later went back on
top with a 13-0 run between UC Riverside
hoops. Mays’ pair of free throws made the
score 43-35, Liberty, with 4:10 remaining.

The Western Carolina Catamounts fashioned a 16-0 run, spanning the first and
second halves, boosting them to a 73-53
victory over Liberty, Saturday evening at the
Ramsey Center. The triumph gave Western
Carolina the championship of this four-team
Preseason WNIT consolation bracket. Both
teams got off to a slow start at the offensive
end. When the buzzer sounded for the contest’s first media timeout at 14:42, the homestanding Catamounts owned a 5-2 advantage. Liberty did not get on the scoreboard
until the 15:30 mark, when Hammond sank
a layup. Western Carolina’s edge bulged to
six points, 16-10, after Brooke Johnson’s
layup 9:54 before the half. The Lady Flames
then knotted the game at 16-16 with six consecutive markers. A Brittany Campbell threepointer from the right corner, marking her
first collegiate points, evened the score at
7:58. However, Liberty only made one more
basket during the remainder of the opening
stanza, Moriah Frazee’s first triple of the
season. The Catamounts closed the half on
an 8-0 surge, taking a 30-19 advantage into
the locker room. The Catamounts notched
the first eight tallies of the second half, including a pair of three-pointers, extending
their overall run to 16-0 and their lead to
38-19. Liberty trimmed its deficit to 13 points,
42-29, with 14:15 remaining. Rachel Hammond contributed four points to the Lady
Flames’ 6-0 run. The red-clad Lady Flames
got to within 47-37 at 10:11, after another 6-0
surge, capped by consecutive Avery Warley
layups. Liberty was unable to shave the lead
to single digits, though, and the hot-shooting
Catamounts pulled away during the final 10
minutes.

The South Alabama Jaguars connected on
nine three-pointers, pushing them past Liberty, 65-61, in the GW Thanksgiving Classic consolation game at the Smith Center
in Washington, D.C. Amber Mays, later
named to the all-tournament team, opened
the game’s scoring by canning a pair of lefthanded layups in the first 1:36 of play, staking
the Lady Flames to an early 4-0 lead.South
Alabama answered with five straight markers, claiming its first advantage, 5-4, when
Shakira Nettles made two free throws at
16:30. The Jaguars’ Karina Sproal tallied five
points in a row, opening up a bit of breathing room for her team. Her long three-pointer
at the 8:20 mark pushed South Alabama’s
edge to 18-14. South Alabama did not trail
again until only 1:48 remained in the stanza,
when Rachel McLeod went two-for-two from
the foul line for the Lady Flames, putting
her team in front, 29-27. The sophomore’s
free throws finished a 6-0 Liberty run. Liberty took a 31-30 lead into the locker room.
Back-to-back triples initiated an 8-0 burst by
the Jaguars, early in the second half. Brittney Rutledge’s long jumper from the corner
with 17:53 remaining closed the run with
South Alabama owning a 38-32 edge. Moriah Frazee made both the first and the last
baskets of Liberty’s ensuing 8-0 surge. Her
layup from the right block reclaimed the lead
for the Lady Flames, 40-38, with 14:05 showing on the second-half clock. South Alabama
bounced right back, and gained a four-point
lead, 50-46, on Siedah Banks’ old-fashioned
three-point play at 7:48. Liberty could get no
closer than two for the remainder of the contest. South Alabama sealed its win by sinking
five of six foul shots in the final minute.

Game 6
Harrisonburg, Va.
Rebounding and stellar free throw shooting down the stretch enabled the James
Madison Dukes to claim a 77-64 victory
over Liberty at the JMU Convocation Center. Back-to-back baskets by JMU’s Dawn
Evans, the nation’s leading scorer entering
the contest, finished an 8-0 Dukes run. The
surge built the home team’s early lead to
nine points, 17-8. The Lady Flames clawed
back to within three points, 21-18, after Moriah Frazee’s three-pointer at the 9:43 mark
punctuated Liberty’s 5-0 run. Evans nailed
a triple on the Dukes’ ensuing possession,
beginning a 9-3 surge by the home squad.
Sarah Williams’ layup closed the run, boosting her team’s advantage back up to 30-21,
with 6:39 on the clock. Liberty took its first
lead since 4-2, when Moriah Frazee’s hoop
at 1:29 capped an 11-0 Lady Flames run.
Her connection made the score 38-36, Liberty. JMU then tallied the stanza’s final three
points, taking a 39-38 advantage into the
locker room. Liberty opened the second half
by scoring four points in the first 47 seconds.
The Lady Flames reclaimed the edge, 4239, after Moriah Frazee’s pair of made charity tosses. James Madison quickly bounced
back with six consecutive markers of its own.
The Dukes went ahead once again, 47-44,
on Evans’ three-pointer with 15:13 left. The
Dukes’ edge ballooned to nine, 56-47, after
a run of seven consecutive points. Moriah
Frazee’s second three-pointer of the game,
at 6:43, trimmed JMU’s lead to six, 60-54.
However, that was Liberty’s last made field
goal for the next five minutes. During the
Lady Flames’ drought, the Dukes put together a 10-2 surge. Another Evans triple, with
just 2:28 remaining, gave JMU its largest
lead of the evening, 70-56. Evans scored the
Dukes’ final 14 points, nine of which came
from the free throw line, enabling her team to
finish off a 13-point victory.

Game 7
Lynchburg, Va.
An 11-0, late second-half run helped No.
13/14 Auburn to pull away from Liberty in a
tightly-played contest. The Tigers were able
to remain undefeated on the season with a
64-53 triumph over the Lady Flames. Lady
Flame Amber Mays came up with four steals
during the game’s first five minutes. Two of
her thefts came during a 10-0 Liberty surge,
which turned a 7-5 deficit into a 15-7 advantage, at 14:08. Liberty’s edge eventually
reached 10 points, 23-13, after Kittery Maine
put back her own missed shot, 10:54 before
the intermission. The Tigers’ defense then
kept Liberty off the scoreboard for nearly
seven minutes, while Auburn reeled off a
15-0 run. Alli Smalley, who hit a pair of threepointers during the surge, capped the burst
with a made jumper at 5:05. Her connection
lifted Auburn to a 28-23 edge. The Lady
Flames bounced right back, fashioning a
10-2 spurt. Moriah Frazee notched five of the
run’s points, and the senior’s old-fashioned
three-point play with 55 seconds remaining
put Liberty up, 33-30. Liberty took a 33-32
lead into the break. Rachel Hammond’s
layup with 17:28 showing on the second-half
clock increased the Liberty advantage to 3733. The Lady Flames were still in front, 4139, after another Hammond basket, coming
at the 14:11 mark. However, those were Liberty’s last points for 9:23. In the meantime,
Auburn crafted its previously mentioned
11-0 surge. Sherell Hobbs tallied five points
during the run, which increased the Tigers’
lead to 50-41. Danika Dale canned a threepointer on Liberty’s next possession, ending
the drought and trimming the Lady Flames’
deficit to six, 50-44. It was close as Liberty
would get for the remainder of the contest,
though, as Auburn put the Lady Flames
away by hitting nine-of-12 free throws during
the last 1:32.
Game 8
Lynchburg, Va.
A 22-1, early second-half run broke open
a close game, propelling Liberty to a 92-68
victory over Commonwealth foe Saint Paul’s.
Six Lady Flames scored in double figures,
helping Liberty snap a five-game losing skid.
The two teams went back and forth several
times in the early going, before Liberty built
its first double-digit lead of the afternoon with
a 10-2 surge. Kittery Maine provided six of
the Lady Flames’ points during the run, including a layup at 8:56, which pushed the
home team’s edge to 21-10. Shortly thereafter, Saint Paul’s responded with a 12-2 run,
trimming its deficit to a single point. Johnson
went six-for-six from the free-throw line during the span, and her pair of free throws
made the score 26-25, Liberty, 4:04 before halftime. The Lady Flames’ advantage
climbed back to eight points, before Liberty
claimed a 36-32 halftime lead. The Lady
Tigers had trimmed Liberty’s lead to 38-37
on Johnson’s layup at the 18:13 mark of the
second half, before suffering an offensive
drought. Saint Paul’s did not make another
field goal for 4:50, enabling Liberty to reel off
its aforementioned 22-1 burst. Amber Mays
contributed seven points to the Liberty run,
and Beecher’s second old-fashioned threepoint play of the surge bolstered the Lady
Flame advantage to 60-38 with 13:30 left.
The visiting Lady Tigers would get no closer
than 19 points down for the remainder of
the afternoon. Meanwhile, Liberty’s edge
reached 30 on three occasions, as the Lady
Flames finished with a season-high point total in their 92-68 triumph. Head coach Carey
Green’s squad was efficient at the offensive
end, sinking 63.6 percent (21-of-33) of its
field goal attempts after the intermission.

Rachel Hammond scored all 13 of her points
during the second half, and Liberty limited
Winston-Salem State to three field goals
in the first 17:30 after halftime, at the C.E.
Gaines Center. As a result, the Lady Flames
opened the half with a 26-9 surge, overcoming a one-point halftime deficit to win, 55-43.
Winston-Salem State made its first two threepointers of the contest, while Liberty utilized
its size advantage. The Lady Flames owned
a 9-6 lead at the 14:59 mark, scoring all nine
of their points inside the paint and free-throw
line. The Lady Rams briefly reclaimed the
advantage, 13-12, after a MaLisa Bumpus
three-pointer, 9:32 before halftime. Liberty
then clamped down on defense, limiting
Winston-Salem State to a single field goal
over the next five minutes. In the meantime,
the Lady Flames reeled off an 8-2 surge, featuring a pair of Amber Mays layups. Rachel
McLeod nailed both ends of a one-and-one
at 5:01. Her second charity toss gave Liberty
its largest lead of the opening half, 20-15.
The Lady Rams closed out the stanza by tallying 10 of the final 14 markers. A Bumpus
jumper with 1:20 left sent her team into the
locker room in front by a single point, 25-24.
Hammond drained a three-pointer on Liberty’s opening possession of the second half,
giving the Lady Flames a lead they would not
relinquish. Her hoop was part of a half-opening 7-0 run by the Lady Flames. Rene Rector then nailed two three-pointers in 44 seconds for Winston-Salem State. Her second
triple, with 16:05 remaining in the contest,
trimmed her team’s deficit to 33-31. Hammond made two more three-pointers during
Liberty’s ensuing 10-0 surge, bolstering the
Lady Flames’ advantage to 43-31. The Lady
Rams got no closer than nine points down
for the remainder of the afternoon.

Game 10
Nashville, Tenn.
No. 19/20 Vanderbilt composed an 18-0 run
early in the first half of its contest against
Liberty at Memorial Gymnasium. The Commodores then fought off numerous Lady
Flame comeback attempts, claiming a 67-50
triumph. The Lady Flames got off to a fast
start, jumping out to a 5-0 lead in the first
minute, as Hammond swished a three-pointer and Avery Warley scored on a putback.
Jennifer Risper’s basket was part of an
18-0 Vanderbilt run. Tia Gibbs scored seven
points during the surge, which concluded
with a Hannah Tuomi basket from the paint
at 10:28. Her connection increased the home
team’s advantage to 23-8. A Moriah Frazee
layup with 2:38 on the first-half clock, part
of a 7-0 Liberty run, cut the Lady Flames’
deficit to 30-18. The Commodores rebuilt
a 17-point advantage, 38-21, at halftime.
Vanderbilt’s initial 20-point point lead of the
game came at 41-21, when Risper converted an offensive rebound into two points, just
1:43 into the second half. The Lady Flames
roared back with a 9-0 burst over the next
2:15. Hammond bookended the run with
a triple and a fast-break jumper. Her latter
hoop, coming with 16:02 left, brought Liberty
to within 41-30. The Lady Flames still trailed
by 11 points, before Vanderbilt opened up
a bit more breathing room with 19-4 surge
over the next 7:37 of action The Commodores’ lead reached a game-high 26 points,
64-38, on a Christina Wirth second-chance
hoop with 5:19 left. The Lady Flames then
reeled off a 10-0 run, started off on consecutive triples by Hammond and Amber Mays.
Frazee split a pair of charity tosses at the
3:04 mark, trimming Vanderbilt’s advantage
to 64-48. That’s as close as the Lady Flames
got, though.

Game 11
Blacksburg, Va.
Megan Frazee, returning to the Liberty lineup after an ankle injury had sidelined her for
eight straight contests, tallied 19 points and
10 rebounds after halftime, against North
Carolina A&T. Her performance lifted the
Lady Flames to a 72-58 win in the opening game of the Hokie Hardwood Classic.
North Carolina A&T recorded an 8-0 burst to
claim an early 13-8 lead. The Aggies’ edge
reached seven points, 21-14, when Brittanie Taylor-James swished a jumper from
just inside the three-point arc, 8:30 before
halftime. Liberty gradually chipped away at
its disadvantage, and Amber Mays’ charity
toss at 1:52 provided the Lady Flames with
their first lead since 8-5, at 27-26. The teams
exchanged the advantage three times during
the remainder of the opening stanza, before
heading to the locker room deadlocked at
31. North Carolina A&T put together an 8-2
surge, early in the second half. Taylor-James
capped the run with a long jumper, giving
her team a 39-35 edge with 15:14 remaining. Liberty battled back to tie the game at
44 apiece, on another Hammond layup, before one play shifted the game’s momentum
significantly. Lamona Smalley was called
for both her fourth foul and a technical foul
at 10:59. Megan Frazee stepped to the line
for a quartet of foul shots. Frazee made all
four tries, giving Liberty an edge it never relinquished, 48-44. Shortly thereafter, Liberty
took control of the contest with a 10-0 burst.
North Carolina A&T could not get closer than
eight points down the rest of the way.
Game 12
Blacksburg, Va.
Tournament MVP Megan Frazee drilled
the game-winning shot from just inside the
three-point arc with 51 seconds remaining in
the Hokie Hardwood Classic championship
contest. Her last-minute heroics lifted Liberty
to a hard-fought 45-43 win over host Virginia
Tech, giving the Lady Flames the tournament
title and their first-ever win over the Hokies.
The Commonwealth foes were deadlocked
at 43-43 when Megan Frazee stepped to the
foul line for a one-and-one with 1:04 remaining in the contest. The senior missed the
front end, but Warley was there to snatch
her 18th rebound. Thirteen seconds later,
Rachel McLeod found Frazee for the gamewinning hoop. Virginia Tech’s Laura Haskins
had two chances to knot the contest in the
final 38 seconds, but Liberty hung on for a
long-awaited win over the Hokies. The teams
traded the lead 11 times during an evenlyplayed opening half, and neither team led
by more than three points. The Hokies’
Lindsay Biggs drilled a three-pointer from
well beyond the arc as the first-half buzzer
sounded, giving her team a 24-23 halftime
edge. Liberty did not score for a 6:32 span
of the second half, enabling Virginia Tech
to reel off an 8-0 surge. Shanel Harrison’s
steal and fast break layup at the 13:26 mark
gave the Hokies their largest lead of the contest, 37-29. Virginia Tech then experienced
its own extended offensive drought, going
8:16 without a point. In the meantime. Liberty reclaimed the lead with a 10-0 run, as
Warley’s putback hoop with 6:45 left in the
contest put the Lady Flames back in front,
39-37. Liberty’s lead was short-lived, however, as Biggs nailed her fourth triple 1:25
later, giving Virginia Tech a 40-39 advantage.
A McLeod mid-range jumper and two Megan
Frazee charity tosses swung the lead back
in Liberty’s favor, 43-40. Utahya Drye then
converted an old-fashioned three-point play
with 1:28 remaining, knotting the score at
43-all and setting the stage for Frazee’s third
game-winning shot in her last six appearances, dating back to last season.

Game 13
Lynchburg, Va.
Liberty broke open a close game against
Gardner-Webb with a 18-2 run spanning the
first and second halves. The Lady Flames
went on to hand the Bulldogs a 55-42 setback in Gardner-Webb’s first-ever Big South
contest and the conference opener for both
squads. The score was deadlocked at 8-8
early on, before Liberty fashioned an 8-0
burst. Megan Frazee tossed in the final
five points of the Lady Flame run, lifting the
home team’s lead to 16-8 at the 9:52 mark.
A Margaret Roundtree jumper from the paint,
this one coming at 4:38, narrowed the visitors’ deficit to 18-14. The Lady Flames then
closed the stanza on a 9-0 run. Moriah
Frazee initiated the surge with five straight
points, and Megan Frazee ended the half’s
scoring with a layup, sending Liberty to the
locker room with a 27-14 advantage. Warley
scored the second half’s first two baskets,
helping Liberty begin the stanza on a 9-2
run. Megan Frazee’s hoop at 16:17 pushed
the Lady Flames’ lead to 36-16, finishing off
an overall surge of 18-2, which started in
the first half. Soon thereafter, the Bulldogs
crafted their best extended run of the evening. The Lady Flames did not score for
5:03, as Gardner-Webb posted a 10-0 burst
to trim its deficit in half. Meranda Burnett’s
mid-range jumper with 6:42 left put her team
back within 10, at 40-30. Freshman Kylee
Beecher halted the Gardner-Webb run with
a free throw on Liberty’s next possession,
and the Bulldogs were never able to cut their
deficit to single digits. Rachel McLeod put
the finishing touches on Liberty’s 55-42 decision, connecting on a driving layup with 14
seconds remaining.

Game 14
Rock Hill, S.C.
Trailing by six points with less than five
minutes remaining at Winthrop, Liberty responded with a game-ending 14-4 run to
pull out a hard-fought 55-51 victory. Avery
Warley’s putback with 30.0 seconds left
gave the Lady Flames the lead for good in
their fourth straight win. Winthrop owned
a 47-41 advantage at the 4:53 mark of the
second half, before Liberty began chipping
away at its deficit. Megan Frazee swished a
three-pointer from the right wing off an outof-bounds play and Amber Mays followed
with a mid-range jumper on Liberty’s next
possession, enabling the Lady Flames to
level the score at 49-all with 2:11 remaining. The score was still deadlocked in the
final minute, when Warley tracked down
her own missed shot and banked it home
for the go-ahead hoop. On Winthrop’s next
possession, an aggressive double team
forced a turnover. Liberty was then able to
finish off its road win with four straight made
free throws by Rachel McLeod and Megan
Frazee, sandwiching a Yvonne van Daalen
layup. Winthrop had fashioned the game’s
first extended run, as Jessica Fansler’s
three-pointer capped a 9-2 surge, boosting
the Eagles’ lead to 12-8 at the 11:09 mark.
Liberty later erased its deficit with a 13-1 run,
including nine points by Megan Frazee. Her
old-fashioned three-point play with only 7.7
seconds remaining in the half finished off the
surge with the Lady Flames owning a 29-24
advantage. Jennifer Walker canned a layup
as the first-half buzzer sounded, pulling the
homestanding Eagles to within three, 29-26,
at the intermission. Winthrop gradually built
its aforementioned six points lead, before
going nearly five minutes without a field goal
at the end of the game. The Eagles’ offensive drought enabled Liberty to initiate its
decisive comeback.

Game 15
Lynchburg, Va.
Liberty closed the first half with a 15-0 run,
Tuesday evening at the Vines Center, propelling the Lady Flames to a 64-54 victory
over East Tennessee State. Liberty scored
on its opening possession of the evening,
when Avery Warley nailed a shot from the
paint. However, the Lady Flames did not
score again until Megan Frazee’s layup, 4:45
later. In the meantime, East Tennessee State
reeled off nine consecutive points. Back-toback layups by Latisha Belcher finished off
the run, putting the Lady Buccaneers in front
by a 9-2 margin at the 14:32 mark. Liberty responded with a 9-0 surge of its own, ending
with Rachel Hammond’s mid-range jumper
at 10:06, which reclaimed the lead for the
Lady Flames, 11-9. The game continued to
swing back and forth, as a 12-4 surge by the
visitors resulted in a 24-20 East Tennessee
State lead. TaRonda Wiles tossed in the last
five points of the Lady Buccaneers’ extended
run, including a triple from the corner at 5:01.
Those would be East Tennessee State’s final points of the opening stanza, however,
as Liberty closed the half on a 15-0 run. Five
Liberty steals keyed the surge, which was
highlighted by Mays’ four points and two
thefts. The Lady Flames owned a 35-24 halftime advantage, after Rachel McLeod closed
the half’s scoring with a layup at the 25-second mark. A pair of triples early in the second
half enabled East Tennessee State to trim
its deficit to seven points, 37-30, with 16:27
remaining. Liberty’s lead fluctuated between
six and 10 points until Tara Davis hit two free
throws at the 10:30 mark, bringing her team
to within 46-41. The Lady Flames quickly
responded with their second 9-0 burst of
the evening, initiated by a three-pointer and
putback by Megan Frazee. Mays later converted her eighth steal into a fast break layup
at 8:21, capping the run with Liberty leading,
55-41. Liberty’s lead remained in double figures for the remainder of the contest, as the
Lady Flames closed out a 64-54 win.
Game 16
Clinton, S.C.
Presbyterian battled Liberty closely throughout much of the two teams’ contest at Templeton Arena. However, the Lady Flames
opened the second half with a 15-2 run, and
went on to claim their sixth-straight victory,
59-49. Presbyterian did not make its first
field goal of the game until 11:37 showed
on the first-half clock. The contest-opening
drought by the Blue Hose enabled Liberty to
build an early 11-4 advantage. Liberty’s lead
reached double digits for the first time at the
10:43 mark, when Moriah Frazee drilled a
three-pointer from the top of the key to make
it 16-6, Liberty. Frazee’s triple closed out an
11-2 Lady Flame run. Liberty’s lead stood
at eight, before homestanding Presbyterian
closed the opening half on a 7-0 surge. A
Katlin Moore three-pointer with 15 seconds
remaining wrapped up the run, sending the
Blue Hose into the locker room with just a
one-point deficit, 20-19. Taking advantage of
a loose zone defense by Presbyterian, Liberty connected on three triples during a 15-2
burst to open the second half, with Rachel
Hammond hitting two of the three-pointers.
Amber Mays’ steal and resulting fast break
layup at 14:42 finished off the half-opening
run, giving Liberty a 35-21 edge. Amanda
Mills tossed in seven points during a 10-2 run
by the Blue Hose, which ended with a Moore
free throw at the 9:53 mark. Moore’s point
brought her team to within 39-33. A quick
5-0 Liberty spurt, capped by Megan Frazee’s
second three-pointer, rebuilt a double-digit
lead for the Lady Flames, 46-35, with 7:21
left. Presbyterian got not closer than seven
points down for the rest of the contest.

Game 17
Asheville, N.C.
Liberty senior Megan Frazee led all players
in both points (22) and rebounds (14), as the
Lady Flames led from wire to wire in a 75-48
win at UNC Asheville. The victory, coupled
with a High Point setback, enabled Liberty
to move into first place in the Big South Conference standings. After Lindsey Thompson
pulled the home team within four points,
11-7, with a long three-pointer from the right
wing, the red-clad Lady Flames scored 13
straight markers to open up their first double-digit advantage of the evening. Liberty
made all five of its field goal attempts during
the prolonged surge, which was capped off
at the 10:43 mark with Rachel Hammond’s
three-point play. Hammond’s trio of points
bolstered Liberty’s advantage to 24-7. The
Lady Flames did not score again for four
and a half minutes, enabling the Bulldogs
to cut their deficit to 24-12, 6:52 before the
intermission. Liberty later posted a 14-0 run,
highlighted by five Rebecca Lightfoot points.
The Lady Flames’ lead reached 42-17 with
44 seconds remaining, after a pair of foul
shots by Amber Mays. Liberty took a 42-19
advantage into the locker room, after its
highest-scoring first half of the season. Kendall Shepard scored seven straigh points for
the Bulldogs, including a three-point play at
14:30 that trimmed the Lady Flames’ edge to
50-30. Liberty countered with a 9-0 run over
the next five minutes, boosting their lead to
29 points (59-30) when Lightfoot canned
both of her free throws with 10:27 to play. The
Lady Flames maintained at least a 23-point
lead for the remainder of the contest, and
the advantage ballooned to as many as 31
points, 75-44, when Rachel McLeod drilled a
deep triple at 1:31.

Game 18
Lynchburg, Va.
Liberty’s Moriah Frazee made a bit of history, scoring her 1,000th career point during
the Lady Flames’ 76-51 conference triumph
over Charleston Southern. Three of Frazee’s
fellow seniors joined her in double figures,
as Liberty remained unbeaten in conference
play. Frazee recorded her milestone at the
14:56 mark of the second half. She drilled a
pair of free throws, making her the 12th player in program history to score 1,000 career
points. Megan Frazee scored 10 straight
Liberty points during a game-opening 17-5
surge by the Lady Flames, over the first 6:52
of play. Ali Schwagmeyer converted an oldfashioned three-point play with 12:01 left in
the first half, trimming the Lady Buccaneers’
deficit to 17-8. However, Rachel Hammond
swished a three-pointer on Liberty’s ensuing possession, and the Lady Flames led
by double digits for the remainder of the
opening stanza. Charleston Southern twice
closed the gap to 10, including at the 5:28
mark, when Katie Tull’s deep triple made the
score 29-19. Rebecca Lightfoot, Hammond
and Frazee all connected from beyond the
three-point arc during an 11-2 Liberty run,
which gave the Lady Flames their largest
lead of the half, 40-21, with 2:02 showing
on the clock. Liberty took a 42-26 advantage
into the intermission. Liberty emerged from
the locker room with a 10-2 run to start the
second half. Megan Frazee’s second threepointer of the afternoon increased the home
team’s advantage to 52-28 with 17:19 remaining. A Danielle Gibson jumper with 6:10
left cut Charleston Southern’s deficit to 18,
at 63-45, after a 7-2 run. Danika Dale then
fueled a 6-0 spurt by the Lady Flames, enabling them to boost the advantage back to
69-45 at 3:38. Liberty’s lead stayed above 21
points for the remainder of the game.

Game 19
Lynchburg, Va.
Liberty’s defense made the difference, holding Coastal Carolina to a season-low point
total in a 65-40 triumph. Visiting Coastal
Carolina recorded an early 7-2 surge, closed
out by a Sydnei Moss layup at the 15:08
mark of the opening half. The sophomore’s
field goal lifted the Chanticleers to a 7-4
edge. Liberty responded with a 7-2 burst of
its own. Layups by Amber Mays bookended
the quick run, which ended with the Lady
Flames in front by an 11-9 score at 12:31.
After Amanda Stull’s triple from the top of
the key briefly reclaimed the advantage for
the Chanticleers, Liberty went on a 15-0
run. Megan Frazee scored eight of the Lady
Flames’ points during the surge and assisted
on Rebecca Lightfoot’s left-handed layup
which capped the run. Lightfoot’s first two
points of the evening made the score 26-12
in favor of the Lady Flames, 6:52 before halftime. Liberty then went scoreless for 5:30,
during which time the Chanticleers crafted a
7-0 run to slice their deficit in half. Kendra
Reynolds’ contested jumper in the paint cut
the Lady Flames’ advantage to 26-19. The
same seven-point margin separated the two
teams at the intermission, as Liberty took a
28-21 lead into the locker room. The Lady
Flames opened the second half on an 8-2
run. Moriah Frazee hit three layups during
the surge, including one which increased
her team’s lead to 36-23 at the 16:01 mark.
Coastal Carolina tallied a 7-1 run soon thereafter. Reynolds’ hoop brought the Chanticleers to within single digits once again,
41-32. A layup and a three-point play by
Moriah Frazee on consecutive possessions
helped Liberty reclaim the momentum, and
the Lady Flames’ lead never dropped below
10 points again.
Game 20
Lynchburg, Va.
Rachel Hammond poured in a career-high
25 points, leading Liberty to a comfortable,
65-42 victory over High Point. Hammond began scorching the Vines Center nets as soon
as referee Mark Hardcastle tossed the opening tip skyward. Hammond tallied 13 points
during Liberty’s game-opening 17-5 run
which spanned the first 6:34, including a trio
of three-pointers. High Point got to within 10
points on three occasions, including at 21-11
after a short jumper by point guard Frances
Fields at 10:15. The Lady Flames then fashioned a 10-1 burst, widening their advantage
to 19 points, 31-12. Kylee Beecher’s layup
capped off the run, 6:17 before the intermission. Both teams struggled at the offensive
end for the remainder of the half, managing only two points apiece. Liberty owned a
33-14 halftime advantage. The Lady Flames
did not score for the first 3:34 of the second
half, as High Point opened the stanza with
six straight points. Fields’ running bank shot
with 16:47 remaining in the contest cut the
Panthers’ deficit to 33-20. Hammond then
heated up once again for the Lady Flames.
She scored the last seven points of an 11-0
Liberty surge, including a fast break layup at
the 13:26 mark which made it 44-20, Lady
Flames. High Point notched five consecutive
points, including a nifty reverse layup by Amy
Dodd, trimming Liberty’s edge to 21 points,
51-30. But that’s as close as the black-clad
visitors would get the rest of the afternoon.
A 14-2 Liberty run, finished off by Megan
Frazee’s trey from the right wing, gave the
Lady Flames their largest lead of the contest, 65-33. High Point scored the game’s
final nine markers, making the final score
65-42, Liberty.

Liberty dominated the painted area versus Radford at the Vines Center. The Lady
Flames scored 50 points in the paint and
outrebounded the Highlanders, 59-30, during an 80-38 triumph. Radford took its only
lead of the night when Rachel Morris drilled a
three-pointer from the left wing on the Highlanders’ initial possession of the contest.
However, those were red-clad Radford’s only
points until the 13:00 mark. The Highlanders’
drought enabled the Lady Flames to reel off
a 15-2 run. Megan Frazee contributed seven
points to the Liberty surge, including a putback at 11:42, which made the score 17-5,
in favor of the Lady Flames. Radford cut its
deficit to 10 points twice, including at 19-9
when Kymesha Alston canned a layup. Liberty then put together a 13-3 burst, increasing its advantage to 20 (32-12) on a successful alley-oop pass play from Rachel McLeod
to Rachel Hammond, 5:11 before the break.
The Lady Flames bolstered their lead to 25
points, 40-15, at halftime, after holding their
opponent under 20 first-half points for the
fourth time in the last six contests. Liberty,
which had scored the final four points of the
first half, opened the second stanza with
six consecutive markers. The Lady Flames’
overall 10-0 surge ended at 17:44, when Moriah Frazee’s spinning finger roll increased
Liberty’s edge to 46-15. Radford went 7:18
without a point during the second half, during which time Liberty’s lead extended to 42
points (60-18) with a 12-0 surge. Liberty’s
advantage got as large as 49 points on two
occasions, before the Lady Flames closed
out their biggest win of the season, 80-38.

Game 22
Boiling Springs, N.C.
Megan Frazee led all players with a seasonhigh 31 points and 10 rebounds, helping the
Lady Flames claim a hard-fought 58-51 victory over Gardner-Webb, Frazee scored 10
early points, helping Liberty open up an 11-4
lead within the first 4:55. Gardner-Webb took
advantage of numerous Liberty turnovers,
recording a 7-0 surge to knot the game at
11-11 at the 12:09 mark. Liberty reclaimed
the advantage, 15-11, when Kylee Beecher
and Rebecca Lightfoot connected from short
range on successive possessions. The Lady
Flames did not score another point for nearly
5:30, enabling the homestanding Bulldogs
to level the score once again, 15-15. An 8-2
Liberty burst, capped off by two Amber Mays
free throws at the 2:21 mark, put the Lady
Flames in front by a 23-17 count. Again,
Gardner-Webb responded quickly. Five
straight markers, including a three-pointer by
Laura Povilonyte, trimmed the Bulldogs’ deficit to 23-22. Liberty took a 25-22 advantage
into the locker room, after Megan Frazee’s
eighth field goal of the opening half. Back-toback hoops by Margaret Roundtree trimmed
Gardner-Webb’s deficit to a single point, 2726, at 16:43 of the second half. Liberty then
put together a 13-4 run, including seven Megan Frazee points. Mays’ hoop with 12:11 remaining in the contest gave the Lady Flames
their first double-digit lead of the evening,
40-30. Liberty’s advantage was still 10
points, before Gardner-Webb halved its deficit with a 7-2 burst. Povilonyte’s trifecta from
just in front of the Bulldog bench pulled her
team within 50-45, with 6:08 showing on the
second-half clock. Gardner-Webb shaved
its deficit to five points two more times, including at 56-51, when Dominique Hudson
went two-for-two from the foul line with 40
seconds remaining. Megan Frazee then iced
the contest with a pair of free throws on the
Lady Flames’ ensuing possession.

Behind the stellar post play of Megan Frazee
and Avery Warley, the Liberty women’s basketball team recorded a 63-48 win over Winthrop. Megan Frazee scored the game’s first
four points, initiating a contest-opening 8-0
run for the Lady Flames. The Liberty advantage reached 15-6 on Avery Warley’s 16-foot
jumper, 12:51 before the half. Winthrop
nailed a quartet of three-pointers during its
ensuing 15-4 run over the next 6:44. Ashley
Haugtvedt’s triple from the top of the key extended the surge and gave the visitors their
first lead of the evening, 21-19. Kylee Beecher’s charity tosses started a 7-0 burst for the
Lady Flames. Liberty’s edge reached five
points, before Shanice Cole’s jumper from
the paint closed Winthrop’s gap to 26-23
at the intermission. Winthrop tied the score
on the second half’s opening possession,
26-26, on Haugtvedt’s old-fashioned threepoint play. Liberty then countered with an 8-2
run, with Hammond three-pointers bookending the surge. Her trey from the right wing
with 17:31 left made the score 34-28, in favor
of the homestanding Lady Flames.Liberty’s
lead got as large as eight points, 38-30,
before Winthrop reeled off a 7-0 run. Fann
contributed the first five tallies to the Eagles’
surge, which shaved her team’s deficit to a
single point. Winthrop did not score its next
points for 6:11, contributing to a 17-3 Liberty
run. Warley’s layup with 4:44 left boosted the
Lady Flames to their largest lead up to that
point, 55-40. Fann and Shanice Cole both
scored hoops from close range, pulling the
Eagles to within 11 at 55-44, with 3:41 showing on the second-half clock. That’s as close
as Winthrop got, however, as Liberty’s advantage bulged to 18 points before the Lady
Flames completed a season sweep of the
Eagles with a 63-48 triumph.

Game 24
Conway, S.C.
Five Liberty players scored in double digits,
and the Lady Flames outrebounded host
Coastal Carolina, 40-12, in a dominating,
77-44 Liberty triumph at Kimbel Arena. Four
of the Lady Flames’ five starters scored within the first 2:35 of the game, as Liberty raced
out to an 8-0 advantage out of the gate.
Avery Warley’s layup closed out the surge.
A long triple by Kate Jasinski broke the ice
for the Chanticleers, 3:05 into the game,
but homestanding Coastal Carolina did not
make its next field goal for 6:49. The Chanticleers’ offensive struggles enabled Liberty to
post a 12-2 run. Rebecca Lightfoot’s layup
off a nice feed from Megan Frazee boosted
the Lady Flames’ lead to 20-5, with 10:25 left
in the opening half. Liberty’s edge remained
in double digits for the rest of the first half,
reaching 20 points (36-16) when Megan
Frazee hit a pair of foul shots at 2:46. Coastal Carolina bounced back with a quick, 5-0
burst, capped off by Jasinski’s second trey.
Her long-distance connection cut the Lady
Flames’ lead to 36-21. Liberty responded
with an old-fashioned three-point play by
Lightfoot, and the visitors took a 39-21 advantage into the locker room. Coastal Carolina emerged from the break with six consecutive points. Katie White’s jumper from the
paint at 17:59 trimmed her team’s deficit to
39-27. Liberty, which had only attempted one
three-pointer during the first half, kick-started
it’s ensuing 11-0 surge with back-to-back triples by Rachel McLeod and Megan Frazee.
A Warley layup with 14:47 left put the finishing touches on the Lady Flames’ run, which
increased their lead to 50-27. Coastal Carolina got no closer than 21 points down for the
remainder of the game, and Liberty’s advantage reached 35 points (77-42), when Kittery
Maine sank a jumper at the 1:05 mark.

Game 25
Charleston, S.C.
The Lady Flames wrapped up the Big South
regular-season title by shooting a school-record 70.2 percent from the field in an 81-59
win at Charleston Southern. The home team
got triples from Kelsey Wasmer and Katie
Tull on consecutive possessions, claiming a
6-4 lead with 18:27 remaining in the opening
half. The Lady Buccaneers’ edge only lasted
for 20 seconds, however, as a Rachel Hammond triple from the corner put Liberty in
front for good. Her long-distance connection
initiated an 11-2 burst by the Lady Flames.
Moriah Frazee’s three-point play at 16:35
capped off the run, giving Liberty a 15-8
edge. Liberty built its initial double-digit lead,
23-13, on Avery Warley’s field goal 9:24 before the break. Liberty’s advantage stood at
nine points (26-17), prior to a 9-2 burst by
the Lady Buccaneers. Ali Schwagmeyer
hit a 13-foot jumper at 3:28 to cut the Lady
Flames’ lead to 28-26. Charleston Southern
only made one more field goal during the remainder of the stanza, as Liberty finished out
the final 20 minutes on an 11-3 spurt. Four
different Lady Flames contributed to the run,
which gave Liberty a 39-29 halftime edge.
Wasmer opened the second-half scoring
with her third trey of the game, just 42 seconds in. Her three points temporarily shaved
Liberty’s lead down to seven, 39-32. Warley
converted an old-fashioned three-point play
on the red-clad Lady Flames’ ensuing possession, helping Liberty reclaim momentum.
Her trio of markers started off an extended
15-2 run by the visitors. Megan Frazee
scored five of the surge’s points, including a
layup at 14:57 that increased Liberty’s edge
to 54-34. The Lady Buccaneers trimmed a
21-point deficit to 15, 70-55, with 5:11 left,
after Schwagmeyer scored six straight tallies
during an 8-2 CSU surge. The Lady Flames
closed the game by scoring nine of the contest’s last 11 points, bolstering Liberty’s final
margin of victory to 22 points, 81-59.
Game 26
Lynchburg, Va.
The Lady Flames’ seniors excelled on Senior
Night at the Vines Center, combining for 42
points and 23 rebounds in a 77-41 triumph
over UNC Asheville. The Bulldogs only made
one field goal over a seven-minute span, enabling Liberty to record a 14-2 run and break
up a tight game. Megan Frazee tallied six of
the Lady Flames’ points during the extended
surge, which ended with a pair of Avery Warley free throws, 6:55 before the half. Warley’s foul shots made the score 22-9, Liberty.
Ana Baker of the Bulldogs converted a trio of
steals into fast break layups. Her final conversion of the 8-0 UNC Asheville spurt came
at 4:39, cutting Liberty’s advantage to 22-17.
The Lady Flames then outscored the Bulldogs by a 10-3 margin over the remainder
of the opening stanza. Four different Liberty
players scored during the half-closing run,
which made the score 32-20, Lady Flames,
at the break. Liberty emerged from the locker
room with a quick spurt. Megan Frazee tallied four points and an assist during Liberty’s
6-2 half-opening surge. Her over-the-head
pass to Hammond resulted in an easy layup
at 18:16, giving the Lady Flames their largest lead to that point, 38-22. Liberty did not
score again for three and a half minutes, and
the Bulldogs shaved their deficit to a dozen
points, 38-26. Hammond halted the visitors’
momentum with a three-pointer in transition, with 14:45 showing on the second-half
clock. The senior’s triple from the left wing
increased the Lady Flames’ advantage to
15 points, 41-26. Liberty then put the game
away with a 23-4 run, increasing its edge to
68-35.

Game 27
Lynchburg, Va.
Four Lady Flames reached double figures,
as Liberty rolled to a 71-33 triumph over
Presbyterian. Visiting Presbyterian made
only one field goal over the first 7:16 of the
contest, a Katlin Moore three-pointer as the
shot clock expired. Liberty took advantage
of its staunch defense, racing out to a 15-3
lead. Four of the Lady Flames’ five starters
scored during the game-opening surge, including Moriah Frazee, who sank a pair of
free throws at 13:09 to increase Liberty’s
advantage to a dozen points. Amanda Mills
drilled another three-pointer for the Blue
Hose with 12:44 remaining in the first half,
but Presbyterian did not score again until
3:21, when Moore hit a perimeter jumper.
In the meantime, Liberty broke open the
game with a 19-0 spurt. Rachel McLeod’s
three-point play finished the surge, lifting the
Lady Flames’ lead to 34-6. Liberty’s advantage got as large as 33 points, before the
Lady Flames took a 41-11 advantage into
the locker room. The 11 points by the Blue
Hose were the fewest first-half markers by a
Liberty opponent this season. Megan Frazee
made a bit of program history early in the
second half. Her pair of charity tosses with
17:35 remaining not only bolstered Liberty’s
lead to 49-13, but also put her into double
digits in the scoring column for the 63rd
consecutive game, a new Liberty record.
The Lady Flames’ advantage fluctuated between 34 and 44 points for the remainder of
the contest, as Liberty finished off a season
sweep of the Blue Hose with a 71-33 decision.

Game 28
Radford, Va.
Radford celebrated Senior Night prior the
contest, but Liberty seniors Megan and Moriah Frazee combined for 46 points in an 8061 victory over the Highlanders. The Lady
Flames jumped out to a 9-0 lead within the
first 2:26 of action, making four of its first five
field goal attempts. Moriah Frazee capped
the surge with back-to-back connections
from short range. Radford’s Kymesha Alston
canned a fast break layup at the 17:25 mark,
cutting her team’s deficit to 7-2. However,
the Highlanders did not make another field
goal until another Alston basket at 11:09, after misfiring on nine of their first 10 shots.
During the meantime, Liberty fashioned a
12-4 surge. Megan Frazee scored seven of
the Lady Flames’ markers, including a foul
shot with 12:15 remaining in the stanza that
made it 21-6, Liberty. The Highlanders’ offense came to life during an ensuing 12-3
burst. Taleia Moton, Radford’s leading scorer on the season, contributed the run’s final
five tallies, trimming the Liberty advantage
to 24-18 at the 8:21 mark. The margin between two Commonwealth foes still stood at
six points, before Megan and Moriah Frazee
teamed up to score the Lady Flames’ first
dozen points of a 14-2 run. Kylee Beecher’s
layup from the right block closed out the run,
giving Liberty its largest first-half lead, 42-24,
with 1:53 left. The Lady Flames then took a
45-29 lead into the break, after their highestscoring first half of the season. The Liberty
edge bounced between 14 and 19 points for
the first 6:36 of the second half, until Megan
Frazee’s basket increased the Lady Flames’
lead to 20 for the initial time, 62-42. Radford
kept the Lady Flames from pulling away, due
to some stellar offensive production early in
the second stanza. The Highlanders scored
23 points during the first 10:42 of the second
half. Both teams cooled off during the latter
half of the stanza, as the two squads evenly
split 18 points during the final nine minutes
of the contest.

Game 29
High Point, N.C.
High Point closed its hard-fought contest
with Liberty on a 9-2 run over the last 3:45 at
the Millis Center, propelling the Panthers to
a 58-53 triumph in the regular-season finale
for both teams. The two teams went back
and forth for the first 10 minutes of play, with
neither side owning a lead of larger than four
points. High Point took a four-point advantage, 16-12, with 9:33 remaining in the first
half, after Frances Fields posted four tallies
during a 7-2 surge. The Panthers held the
Lady Flames without a field goal for nearly
eight minutes during the latter stages of the
opening stanza. High Point’s stiff defense
led to a 26-19 lead, when LaTeisha Dean
converted a steal into a fast break layup,
1:37 before the intermission. Megan Frazee
scored Liberty’s final five points of the half,
helping the Lady Flames trim their deficit to
28-24 at the break. High Point scored the
first three points of the second half, matching its largest lead to that point, 31-24.
Liberty then posted a 9-2 run, knotting the
game at 33-33 on Avery Warley’s driving,
right-handed layup at the 16:27 mark. Rachel Hammond’s second-chance hoop with
14:27 left gave Liberty its first lead since 109, at 39-38. Her connection was part of a 6-0
burst, which ended 46 seconds later, when
another Warley basket made it 41-38, Lady
Flames. High Point came back to tie the
score three separate times, before Dean’s
putback with 7:03 remaining put the home
team back in front, 49-47. Liberty reclaimed
the lead, 51-49, with 4:07 to play, after Megan Frazee scored four consecutive points.
However, the Lady Flames did not score
again until just 1.5 seconds remained in the
contest. Maier’s trey from the right wing, just
22 seconds later, gave High Point the advantage for good, 52-51. By the time Warley
scored from short range at the 1.5-second
mark, the Panthers had sealed their 58-53
victory with a runner by Shamia Brown and
four free throws.
