Samantha Steele Game No. 15 - Jan. 13, 2009 East Tennessee State LADY BUCS (7-6, 5-1 Atlantic Sun) at Liberty LADY FLAMES (7-7, 2-0 Big South) Lynchburg, Va. - Vines Center - 7 p.m. The Game Tuesday night’s contest between Liberty (7-7, 2-0 Big South) and East Tennessee State (7-6, 5-1 Atlantic Sun), the Lady Flames’ final regular-season non-conference game, will pit a pair of teams on a roll. Liberty and East Tennessee State both enter the contest on four-game winning streaks and both reside near the top of their respective conference standings. Tip-off at the Vines Center is scheduled for 7 p.m. What to Watch Both Liberty and East Tennessee State played in the 2008 NCAA Tournament, and both teams are favored to return to the postseason this season. Last season, the Lady Flames and Lady Bucs played a competitive contest at the Memorial Center. East Tennessee State led for much of the contest, before Liberty put together a 9-2, game-ending run to pull out a 64-60 victory. East Tennessee State features Siarre Evans, a 5-11 junior guard/forward who is currently averaging a double-double (14.3 ppg, 10.2 rpg).

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 220-75 record on the Liberty bench, good for a winning percentage of .746. 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 47-game winning streak and currently owns a .914 (138-13) winning percentage against conference teams. Green has marched through conference play with one or fewer setbacks six times, while guiding the Lady Flames to two undefeated conference seasons.

ETSU went 21-12 and captured the Atlantic Sun Championship, earning the program’s first-ever NCAA Tournament bid. Three starters, including first-team all-conference honoree Siarre Evans, return from last year’s squad. As a result, the Lady Buccaneers were tabbed to repeat as Atlantic Sun champions. After a slow start, East Tennessee State has turned things around recently. Beginning with a road win at Kentucky on Dec. 12, the Lady Bucs have won six of their last seven contests. Three players are scoring in double figures for ETSU, led by Evans, a 5-11 junior guard/forward. She is averaging a double-double, with 14.3 ppg and 10.2 rpg. Also averaging double figures are 5-10 junior guard TaRonda Wiles (13.5 ppg) and 6-2 junior forward Latisha Belcher (12.7 ppg). 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 220-75 career record and is the all-time wins leader at Liberty and among Big South women’s basketball coaches. His career winning percentage (.746) ranked 10th among active NCAA Division I women’s basketball coaches at the season’s outset. Green is 2-0 all-time against East Tennessee State. Karen Kemp is 201-210 in her 15th season as East Tennessee State’s head coach. She recently reached a milestone, recording her 200th career win on Jan. 8 at Florida Gulf Coast. Last season, Kemp earned the Atlantic Sun Coach of the Year award, after winning the Southern Conference Coach of the Year honor in 1995. Kemp is 1-2 against Liberty during her coaching career. Liberty-East Tennessee State Series Notes East Tennessee State leads the all-time head-to-head series by a 7-4 count, but the Lady Flames have won the teams’ last two meetings. Last season, ETSU led for much of the game against Liberty, Jan. 8, 2008 at the Memorial Center. However, the Lady Flames ended the contest with a 9-2 burst to record a 64-60 victory. Megan Frazee’s 21 points and 12 rebounds led the way for the Lady Flames, and sister Molly Frazee converted a three-point play with 1:05 remaining to put Liberty in front for good. Siarre Evans paced the Lady Bucs with 13 points and eight rebounds. The last time East Tennessee State visited the Vines Center was Dec. 9, 1999. Liberty posted a 74-59 win, as twins Sarah and Sharon Wilkerson combined for 52 points. Liberty Versus the Atlantic Sun Conference The Lady Flames have faced four current members of the Atlantic Sun Conference, going 11-21 against Atlantic Sun teams. Liberty is 7-12 versus Campbell, 4-7 versus East Tennessee State, 0-1 versus Mercer and 0-1 versus Stetson.

Head coach Carey Green has gone 65-8 with the Lady Flames during the year’s opening month, including a 7-0 January last season. The Lady Flames have won 33 straight home games during the month of January. Liberty has not lost a January contest at the Vines Center since Jan. 13, 2000, when Elon dealt the Lady Flames a 77-72 setback. Down, But Not Out On Saturday, Liberty trailed Winthrop by six points with less than five minutes remaining, before rallying for a 55-51 win. Winthrop had led by as many as seven points earlier in the game, meaning the Lady Flames have erased a six-point deficit to win four times this season (also UC Riverside, North Carolina A&T and Virginia Tech). 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. She’s Back! Senior guard/forward Megan Frazee was sidelined with an ankle injury for eight games, before returning to action Dec. 29 against North Carolina A&T. In the four games since Frazee’s return, she is averaging 20.5 ppg and 8.8 rpg and has helped Liberty go 4-0. Frazee was recognized as Big South Women’s Basketball Player of the Week on Jan. 5, based upon those three performances. A two-time conference player of the week this season, Frazee was the first Big South player to win the award multiple times in 2008-09. She is now a 14-time Big South Player of the Week in her career. We are the Champions! The Lady Flames defeated Virginia Tech, 45-43, on Dec. 30 at Cassell Coliseum to win the Hokie Hardwood Classic. Megan Frazee hit the game-winning shot from 18 feet with just 51 seconds remaining, giving Liberty its first-ever win over the Hokies and preventing Virginia Tech from winning its 11th straight home tournament title. Frazee was named tournament MVP, marking the fourth tournament MVP trophy she has won in the last two seasons (also 2007 National City Xavier Invitational, 2007 Lady Rebel Christmas Classic and 2008 Big South Championship). Avery Warley, who nabbed 29 rebounds in two games at the tournament, also made the all-tournament team. Spreading the Wealth Six Lady Flames reached double figures in the scoring column during Liberty’s 92-68 triumph over Saint Paul’s on Dec. 13. Freshman Kylee Beecher led the way with 18 points, followed by Moriah Frazee (16 points), Avery Warley (13), Danika Dale (12), Kittery Maine (12) and Amber Mays (10). Liberty had not featured six double-digit scorers in the same game since Jan. 19, 1987, when Pam Wilder (25 points), Pam Stanfield (14), Harriett Blair (12), Saundra Bridges (11), Annetta Paraham (11) and Sharon Freet (10) accomplished the feat for the Lady Flames. Their efforts helped Liberty claim a 98-83 home win over Ferrum. None of Liberty’s double-figure scorers from the Saint Paul’s contest were born on Jan. 19, 1987. Moriah Frazee was born a little more than two months later, on March 29. Spreading the Wealth, Part 2 Rebounding played a key role in Liberty’s 72-58 triumph over North Carolina A&T in the opening round of the Hokie Hardwood Classic on Dec. 29. The Lady Flames outrebounded the Aggies by a 51-31 count, led by three double-digit rebounders. Megan Frazee snared a game-high 12 rebounds, while Avery Warley corralled 11 boards and Kylee Beecher came up with 10 caroms. Liberty had not seen three players grab double-digit rebounds in the same game since Jan. 31, 1998, during a 79-66 home win over Radford. A Vines Center women’s basketball-record crowd of 5,117 watched Elena Kisseleva tally 15 rebounds, while Kirstyn Bliss and Sharon Wilkerson rounded up 10 rebounds apiece.

The Lady Flames also defeated Winston-Salem State by a 55-43 count on Dec. 20, meaning three of Liberty’s seven victories this season have been won with 55 points. 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 138-13 against Big South opponents, including 114-12 in the regular season and 24-1 in the Big South Championship. Green has never lost to his alma mater, Coastal Carolina (21-0), or Charleston Southern (20-0) during his time at Liberty. Fabulous Freshman Freshman post player Kylee Beecher enjoyed the best game of her young collegiate career, Dec. 13 against Saint Paul’s. She paced the Lady Flames with a career-high 18 points, matching the Roanoke, Va., native’s point total from her first six appearances. Beecher also contributed six rebounds and a career-best five assists to Liberty’s 92-68 win. As a result, Beecher was tabbed Big South Women’s Basketball Freshman of the Week on Dec. 15. She became Liberty’s first Big South Freshman of the Week since current Lady Flame senior Moriah Frazee won the award on Feb. 20, 2006. Balanced Scoring Redshirt freshman Avery Warley led all players in scoring during Liberty’s 55-43 win at Winston-Salem State on Dec. 20, tossing in a career-high 17 points. She became the sixth different player to pace the Lady Flames’ scoring parade during this season’s first 13 contests, joining Kylee Beecher, Brittany Campbell, Megan Frazee, Moriah Frazee and Rachel Hammond. Last year, only five different players--Allyson Fasnacht, Megan Frazee, Molly Frazee, Moriah Frazee and Rebecca Lightfoot--led Liberty in scoring during the team’s 32 games. Megan Frazee led the way 24 times. Turning Up the Heat in the Furnace The 2008-09 campaign is the 17th season the Liberty University women’s basketball team has called the Vines Center its full-time home. Liberty’s first-ever contest at the Vines Center was an 86-74 loss to East Tennessee State, on Dec. 7, 1990, but the “Furnace” has served as a favorable venue for the Lady Flames over the years. Liberty is 180-51 (.779) all-time at the Vines Center, including 13-0 last season. The Lady Flames, 2-2 at the Vines Center in 2008-09, have 12 home games scheduled this season. Liberty Versus Non-Conference Opposition The Lady Flames are 5-7 during the non-conference portion of their 2008-09 slate. Liberty is 265-292 all-time in non-conference outings. Last season, Liberty went 15-3 versus non-conference opponents. The Lady Flames won all six of their non-conference home games in 2007-08. 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 non-conference setback that season came to national champion Tennessee in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Dial Three Digits for Long Distance The Lady Flames have been able to continue a long-standing streak, so far this season. The Lady Flames have made at least one three-pointer in a school-record 117 straight games, a run which began on Feb. 26, 2005. None of the current Lady Flames were in college when the streak began. Liberty kept the streak alive on Saturday, when Megan Frazee hit a season-high three triples and Rebecca Lightfoot made a three-pointer in her first appearance of the season.

Last season, the Lady Flames tallied a 3.354 GPA, ranking 14th in the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) Top 25 Team Honor Roll. It was the third straight season and the fifth time in program history that Liberty has been included in the Top 25 Team Honor Roll. The Lady Flames were listed a programbest seventh in 2006-07 and tied for 14th in 2005-06. Liberty was rated 13th in 1999-2000, which was Carey Green’s first season as head coach, and came in 12th during the 199899 campaign. Liberty was one of only three teams to be included in last season’s WBCA Top 25 Honor Roll and play in the NCAA Tournament, joining Kansas State and New Mexico.

She has totaled 51 rebounds in the last three contests, including a career-high 18 boards versus Virginia Tech on Dec. 30. Warley has been active at both ends of the floor, as 25 of her caroms have come off the offensive glass. Warley’s recent rebounding tear has propelled her into first place on the Big South rebounding list, with 8.7 rpg. Only three Lady Flames have ever led the conference in rebounding for a season (Wendy Johnson in 1991-92, Katie Feenstra three times and Megan Frazee in 2006-07). One of Warley’s most important rebounds came during the closing stages of Saturday’s win at Winthrop. With the score knotted at 49-all, Warley snared an offensive rebound and converted a layup, giving her team the lead for good with just 30.0 seconds left on the clock. It was also Warley’s offensive rebound off a missed free throw that set the stage for Megan Frazee’s game-winning jumper, Dec. 30 at Virginia Tech. Start Me Up Head coach Carey Green used only four different starting lineups in Liberty’s 32 games last season. The most common starting five consisted of Allyson Fasnacht, Courtney Watkins, Megan Frazee, Rebecca Lightfoot and Moriah Frazee. The unit went 18-2 in its 20 games as a starting unit. This year, Liberty has already used five different starting lineups in the first 14 games of the season. Moriah Frazee, Rachel Hammond and Avery Warley have been the only three Lady Flames to start every contest. The Lady Flames’ most recent lineup, consisting of Moriah Frazee, Hammond, Warley, Amber Mays and Megan Frazee, is a perfect 4-0. Counting Up the Votes Liberty was listed among the “Others Receiving Votes” in the Nov. 25 ESPN/USA Today Coaches Top 25 poll, for the third straight week, receiving one vote. Last season, the Lady Flames regularly received votes in both national polls, but did not quite crack the Top 25. Liberty’s most recent Top 25 ranking came in the final ESPN/ USA Today Coaches poll of the 2004-05 season. The Lady Flames were listed No. 21, after reaching the “Sweet 16” of the NCAA Tournament. Halfway There? Halftime leads have not been safe so far this season in Liberty’s games. Five times, the team owning the halftime advantage has gone on to lose the game. The Lady Flames have dropped a trio of contests after leading at intermission, and Liberty claimed road victories at Winston-Salem State (Dec. 20) and Virginia Tech (Dec. 30), despite trailing at the break in both contests. Lack of Overtime Liberty has played only one overtime game in its last 160 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 a season-high 55.7 percent (34-of-61) of its field goal attempts against Saint Paul’s on Dec. 13, leading to a 92-68 victory. The Lady Flames went 9-0 last season when shooting 50 percent or higher. Liberty is now 50-0 in such contests under head coach Carey Green. Top 50 Scorers in Liberty History 1. Elena Kisseleva 2.

Liberty claimed 17 of 19 first-place votes and earned 169 total points. Winthrop was second with 143 points. Individually, Megan Frazee was voted Big South Preseason Player of the Year for the third season in a row. Sister Moriah Frazee joined her on the preseason all-conference roster. Full voting results appear below. 2008-09 Big South Women’s Basketball Preseason All-Conference Team Megan Frazee, Liberty, Sr., G/F, 6-3 – Preseason Player of the Year Moriah Frazee, Liberty, Sr., F, 6-3 Ashley Fann, Winthrop, Sr., F, 6-0 Pamela Tolbert, Charleston Southern, Sr., G, 5-8 Johnette Walker, Radford, Sr., G, 5-8 2008-09 Big South Preseason Poll Team (First-Place Votes) Total Points 1) Liberty (17) 169 2) Winthrop (1) 143 3) High Point 129 4) Radford (1) 116 5) UNC Asheville 75 6T) Coastal Carolina 73 6T) Gardner-Webb 73 8) Charleston Southern 55 9) Presbyterian 22 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 3,057 points and 1,594 rebounds during their four spectacular years at Liberty. Miss Consistency Megan Frazee has scored in double figures in each of her last 50 games, dating back to Jan. 27, 2007. It is the longest such streak of her career and the longest by a Liberty player since Elena Kisseleva tallied 10 or more points in 62 straight contests, spanning the 1996-97, 1997-98 and 1998-99 seasons. Frazee has only scored nine or fewer points on four occasions at Liberty, and has never done so in consecutive outings. Clamping Down on Defense The Lady Flames have held 65 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. Nine of the Lady Flames’ first 14 opponents, including the last four in a row, have shot below 40 percent from the floor. Liberty ranks second in the Big South with a .361 opponents field goal percentage. The Lady Flames are 7-2 this season when their opponents shoot under 40 percent from the field. A Short Commute Freshman guard Brittany Campbell attended high school literally right down the street from Liberty University at Brookville High School. She is the first Lynchburg-area player to suit up for the Lady Flames since Tekita Butler in the 2002-03 season. Top 50 Rebounders in Liberty History 1. Katie Feenstra 2. Sharon Snodgrass 3.

The last time the Lady Flames’ roster consisted solely of American-born players was the 1993-94 campaign. Every Carey Green-coached team at Liberty has featured at least one international player. A Clutch Performer Megan Frazee drained a game-winning 18-foot jumper with 51 seconds left on Dec. 30 at Virginia Tech, representing her third game-winning shot in the senior’s last eight appearances. Frazee also defeated Radford (March 16, 2008 - Big South Championship) and UC Riverside (Nov. 21, 2008 - Preseason WNIT) with close-range field goals in the final seconds. In Good Company On Jan. 5, Megan Frazee was honored as Big South Women’s Basketball Player of the Week. It was the second time the senior has captured the award this season and was her 14th career weekly conference honor. Only former Liberty standout Katie Feenstra has collected more Big South Women’s Basketball Player of the Week awards in conference history. Feenstra finished her Liberty career with 15 weekly plaques. Anything You Can Do ... Last season, Megan Frazee became the 11th player in program history to score 1,000 career points, eclipsing the magical mark at North Carolina on Dec. 30, 2007. This year, she could get some company from within her own family. Sister Moriah Frazee enters the East Tennessee State contest with 971 points, leaving her 29 shy of 1,000. If Frazee scores at her current season average of 10.5 points per contest, she is due to hit the milestone on Jan. 19, during the Lady Flames’ game at UNC Asheville. The Frazees would not be the first sister duo to score over 1,000 points at Liberty. Sharon and Sarah Wilkerson, who graduated in 2000, totaled 1,733 and 1,331 points, respectively. It is believed that Liberty would be first NCAA Division I women’s basketball program ever to boast multiple sets of sisters who scored over 1,000 points. Moreover, the Wilkersons were twins and the Frazees are triplets. Cranking Up the Defense Liberty has played exceptional defense during its current four-game winning streak. The Lady Flames have held North Carolina A&T, Virginia Tech and Gardner-Webb all to season-low point totals during the stretch. Liberty’s four foes have scored only 48.5 ppg against Liberty and have combined to shoot just 32.7 percent from the field. Winning the Battle of the Boards The Lady Flames have outrebounded 11 teams in their first 14 games of the season. Only three teams (Western Carolina, James Madison and Winthrop) have won the rebounding battle against Liberty this season, as the Lady Flames lead the Big South Conference with a +7.7 rebounding margin. Liberty, which currently ranks No. 18 nationally for rebounding margin, has finished in the top five in the category for five consecutive seasons. The Lady Flames led the nation in rebounding margin during both the 2003-04 and 2004-05 campaigns. Coming Through in the Clutch With Liberty’s 55-51 win at Winthrop on Saturday, the Lady Flames improved to 3-2 this season, in games decided by five points or less. Two of Liberty’s last three games have been tight victories, as the Lady Flames also pulled out a 45-43 win at Virginia Tech on Dec. 30. Last season, Liberty excelled in tight situations, winning five of its seven contests decided by five points or less. The Lady Flames’ close victories included the championship games of the National City Xavier Invitational, Lady Rebel Christmas Classic and Big South Championship.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
