She also is the only player in league averaging double figures in rebounding at 10.3 per league contest. Gooch also ranks fifth in field goal percentage and second in blocks.

- WKU has enjoyed great success at E.A. Diddle Arena this season, posting a 5-1 record at home with the loss coming against fourth-ranked Louisville. WKU is 1-0 in league games this season at home.
- Redshirt freshman Kendall Noble has given the Lady Toppers a new look on the offensive end in recent games. With the recent absence of junior Alexis Govan to injury, Noble has found her scoring grove that made her a prized prospect out of high school. Following a series of injuries to begin her WKU career, Noble has scored 12.5 points and grabbed 6.0 rebounds per contest during WKU's current two-game winning streak, hitting 9-of-16 shots from the field in 58 total minutes of play. She also made her first career three-point goal during the stretch against Troy, adding another in the ensuing contest against Georgia State.
