About the Eagles
Last Time Out
BC cracked the win column after a 69-57 victory on Thursday afternoon. The Eagles used a 30-point fourth quarter and a 14-2 run to pull away from the Wildcats. Lily Carmody (21 points) and Teionni McDaniel (20 points) combined for 41 of the points, while Amirah Anderson scored seven of her 10 points in the fourth quarter. BC went 19-of-23 from the line, improving after an 11-of-20 performance in the season opener.
A Win Would
- Give BC a 2-1 mark.
- Earn a sixth win in the series against UMass Lowell.
- Give coach Mac her 110th win at Boston College.
Swords Making the Call
Boston College Hall of Famer Carolyn Swords will be on the call for tomorrow's game, as she'll serve as the analyst with Eric Gallanty on play-by-play. Swords filled the record book in her time at Boston College as her name is atop many of the greatest single-season and career accomplishments. Swordsfinished her career as the second all-time leading scorer with 2,029 points. She went down as BC's all-time leader in rebounds (1,159), blocks (178), is the only member of the 2000-point, 1000-rebound club, and started in all of her school-record 133 games. She joined BC great Sarah Behn (1989-93) as the only women's basketball players in school history to have their jerseys hang in the rafters.
Efficiency at its finest
Carmody through two games is averaging 17.0 points on just 6.5 field goal attempts and shooting 53.8 percent from the field. The sophomore guard is averaging 10 free throw attempts, 3.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.5 steals. Her 29.2 player efficiency rating (PER) is sixth in the ACC among players averaging at least 30 minutes per game. The guard from Australia is also third in the country in free throw makes and attempts.
Freshmen Impact
Amirah Anderson and Jocelyne Grier have made an immediate impact. Grier is third on the team in scoring at 9.0 points per game, first in steals and tied for first in 3-pointers made. Anderson leads the Eagles in rebounding (6.5), shooting 50 percent from the field and has hit all four free throws. Both guards have scored in double figures in one game heading into Sunday.
By the Numbers
2 - BC is one of six teams in the ACC with at least two players averaging 15 points per game.
6 - Carmody is one of six players in the league thus far with a PER of at least 25 while averaging 30 minutes per game.
14 - Athena Tomlinson is first in the ACC and 14th in the country in assists.
44.2 - BC has scored 44.2 percent of its points in the paint.
80 - The Eagles are 53-4 when scoring 80 or more points under coach Mac.
What to Watch for
- Watch if the Eagles can continue their strong start, as they're plus-13 scoring margin in the first quarter is the highest of any quarter.
- See if Lily Carmody and Teionni McDaniel can continue their scoring ways, as they're averaging a combined 32 points through two games. The pair scored 41 after pouring in 21 and 20 points, respectively.
- See if BC can score off UMass Lowell's mistakes, as the Eagles are averaging 18.5 points off turnovers so far. Opponents averaged 17.3 in the River Hawks' losses last season.
- The Eagles are also averaging 18 fast break points, highlighted by a 20- advantage in the win over New Hampshire. See if they can continue to push the pace.
- Watch if BC can come up with second-chance opportunities, as the Eagles are averaging 9.5 offensive rebounds. The Eagles collected 11 against New Hampshire.
Scouting UMass Lowell (1-0)
- The River Hawks are led by first-year head coach Jon Plefka.
- UMass Lowell defeated St. Anslem in the season opener, 54-50.
