Georgia Coach Andy Landers chalked up his 800th career win tonight in the #8 Bulldog's 94-57 rout of Savannah State. His first victory was in 1979. Think about it.

Natalie Achonwa is indeed stepping up for #5 Notre Dame. She recorded 22 points in their 93-36 thrashing of Mercer.

There are two Nneka's?? #15 Texas has Nneka Enemkapali, and she scored 24 points and grabbed 20 rebounds in the Longhorn's 80-53 defeat of Jackson State.

Jordan Hooper lead #23 Nebraska over Sam Houston State, 85-72, with her second double-double on the year.

BYU handed Arizona their first loss, 62-48.

Oregon State rallied from a 10-point deficit to upend Cal State Santa Barbara, 49-46. The teams are playing in the inaugural Hardwood Tournament of Hope in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
