Women’s Basketball – Chatham
#1 Ashlie Louden
5-7 Sophomore Guard
Stat Line: 28 points, 5-for-7 on 3-pointers, 3 rebounds
The fourth-seeded Chatham Cougars entered Monday night with a chance to do something that has never happened in their women’s program history, advance to the PAC semi-finals. Sophomore guard Ashlie Louden stepped up in the biggest way possible in the quarterfinal showdown with the fifth-seeded Allegheny Gators. The Cougars offense erupted in the first half, shooting 42.1-percent from three and 47.2-percent from the floor behind Louden’s 21 first half points. The offense never slowed for Chatham, who came out on top 74-56 to advance to the PAC semi-finals. Louden went 11-for-14 from the floor and 5-for-7 from three. The sharp-shooting lefty finished with 28 points, two shy of her career-high of 30, resulting in Louden being named to the Foster Law Office Player of the Game.
