Tigers Visit James Madison on Sunday

Time to Be Road Warriors: After going 3-1 during their home stand, the Tiger women's basketball team hits the road for a pair of games, starting Sunday, Jan. 22. Towson visits James Madison for a 2 p.m. contest in Harrisonburg, Virginia. Links to live stats and the video feed can be found on the schedule page of TowsonTigers.com. Towson Sports Network's Ben Rosenbaum will bring fans audio coverage of the game starting at 1:45 p.m. Fans can also follow the Tigers on Twitter (@Towson_WBB) for updates.

Series History: The Tigers wrap up their season series with James Madison with the meeting in Harrisonburg. It will be the 44th meeting in a series that James Madison leads 39-4. Towson snapped an 11-game losing streak to the Dukes with a 54-51 win when the two squads met in Towson on Jan. 8. Guard Raine Bankston led a balanced effort with 11 points, eight rebounds and seven steals. The Tigers are looking for their first ever win in Harrisonburg.

Seeing Double: Towson got a pair of double-double performances in Friday's win over William & Mary. Junior forward Mary Cuevas had a season-high 15 points and 14 rebounds. Redshirt sophomore center Maia Lee added a career-high 12 points and 10 rebounds. Cuevas and Lee became the first Tigers to record a double-double in the same game since LaTorri Hines-Allen and Ciara Webb did so against Drexel on Feb. 15, 2015..

Pound the Ball in the Paint: The Tigers scored 36 points in the paint against William & Mary. It marked the second straight game and eighth time this season the Tigers have scored 30 or more points in the paint. Towson is 5-3 this season when it scores 30 or more points in the paint. The Tigers are averaging 30.0 points in the paint this season.

Double the Fun: The Tigers had four players score in double figures in Friday's win over William & Mary. Sophomore guard Sianni Martin led all scorers with 16 points while junior forward Mary Cuevas contributed 15 points. Senior guard Raven Bankston had 13 points while redshirt sophomore center Maia Lee finished with 12 points. It was the fifth time this season the Tigers have had four players score in double figures in the same game. Towson is 3-2 in those games, claiming victory over UMBC, George Mason and William & Mary. The Tigers fell to then No. 4 Maryland and Rider despite having four players in double figures.

Clearing the Glass: The Tigers won the rebounding battle 43-33 on Friday night against William & Mary. Towson was led by junior forward Mary Cuevas and redshirt sophomore center Maia Lee, who had 14 and 10 rebounds, respectively. Eight of the 10 Tigers who appeared in the game grabbed at least two rebounds. It was the first time the Tigers won the rebounding battle by 10 or more since they faced Coppin State on Dec. 3.

I'll Take That: Towson continues to take advantage of its quick hands when it comes to steals. The Tigers had 12 steals in the win over William & Mary on Friday night. Sophomore guard Sianni Martin and senior guard Raven Bankston each had four steals to lead the team in that category. Towson has now recorded double digit steals in back-to-back games and 12 times this season. The Tigers rank 27th in the nation in steals per game. In addition, Bankston is 13th nationally for total steals (58) and 11th in steals per game (3.41).

That was a Big One: Towson's win over William & Mary gave them 10 on the season. It is the first time since the 2014-15 season that the Tigers reached double digits in the win column and the 34th time in program history. A win over William & Mary also gave the Tigers back-to-back CAA wins for the first time since early January in the 2014-15 season.

Up Next: Towson visits UNCW on Friday, Jan. 27 at 7 p.m. The Tigers then return to SECU Arena on Sunday, Jan. 29 to host Delaware at 2 p.m.
