She now has scored 20 or more points in seven consecutive games, the last of which was a 23-point effort in a win over rival Michigan State.

Honorable mention

Azzi Fudd, No. 1 UConn; Clara Strack, No. 16 Kentucky; Riley Weiss, Columbia.

Keep an eye on

High Point graduate guard Aaliyah Collins averaged 26.5 points, 4.5 assists, four steals and 2.5 blocks in a win and a loss last week. She matched a career high with 29 points in a victory over Charleston Southern while also having five steals. Collins also had 24 points, six assists and three steals in an overtime loss to Longwood that was for first place in the Big South Conference.
