Bold On The Glass
Bolden has been a force on the glass, snagging at least 10 rebounds in six of the last nine games she has played in, including a career-high 14 against William Peace.

The Price Is Right
Price has led the Camels in scoring in 13-of-21 games this season. She has scored 10+ points in all but five contests this year. Averaging 15.7 points per game this season, Price leads the Big South in scoring average. Price moved into the top-10 in scoring with her performances during the Feb. 5-11 game week. She is six points away from ninth place, held by Ronda Mueller (1,276).

Follow Us, We'll Lead The Way
Campbell led for 182:59 in the five games between Nov. 17 and Nov. 30. The Camels trailed for only 6:44 in that span. CU trailed in that category for the second time all season against WCU, only leading for 14:22, while trailing for 22:20.

Can You Hear Me Now?
During the 2017 Education Day game versus Columbia International, the rambunctious crowd surpassed 100 decibels inside Gore Arena. That level of noise is similar to that of a jackhammer or a power lawn mower.

Big South Preseason
