Charlotte senior Mariah Linney is another player to look out for, as she averages 11.3 points per game and is ranked 22 in the conference’s top scorers. Linney scored 19 points this season against Wake Forest.

As for the Lady Toppers, senior Fatou Pouye is one of the more balanced scorers who regularly averages 11.2 points per game and scored 21 points in conference play against LA Tech. The senior from Senegal currently sits at 23 on the list of top scorers in the conference.

Elgedawy averages 20.7 points per game and almost shattered her record of 29 points in the series against MTSU where she scored 26.
