-In her start on Friday afternoon, Nicole Hensley turned in a season-high 45 saves. Hensley has made 3,479 saves during her career, ranking fifth all time, and 330 behind the all-time mark of 3,809.

-The Lindenwood penalty kill managed to successfully kill off eight of its nine opportunities this past weekend at Wisconsin. Dating back to the October 31 contest vs. Penn State, the Lady Lions have killed off 16 of the 18 penalties against, and are operating at an 83.3% success rate.
