Quick Hitters
• Emma Bockrath has ramped up her already staggering production since the conference season started. The sophomore is averaging 13.9 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 2.4 steals in HPU's seven league contests.
 
• High Point was credited with 6 assists on its 14 made shots against the Camels on Tuesday. Now the team averages assists on 59.5 percent of its field goals this season. For comparison, the 2015-16 squad dished out assists on 50.5 percent of its made baskets while the Blue Hose also have assisted on 59.5 percent of their buckets this winter.
 
• For the second straight season, the Panthers are leading the Big South in free throw shooting percentage (.753) and is second in the league in three point shooting percentage (.333). HPU ranks 34th in the nation from the charity stripe.
 
• Kaylah Keys needs two three-pointers to pass Jurica Hargraves as HPU's career leader in three-pointers. She has 228 in her career.
 
• Outside of her record scoring pace, Kaylah Keys is headed toward other remarkable career milestones. The guard needs 47 rebounds, 14 assists and nine steals to become the first Panther in the team's Division I era to rack up 400 rebounds, 300 assists and 200 steals.
 
• In 2015-16, the Purple & White averaged 35.8 rebounds per game and finished 241st in the nation. However, this season the Panthers are 105th this year with 39.8 rebounds per contest.
 
• In the preseason, the Panthers were picked to finish third while picking up a first-place vote. On the other side, Presbyterian College was tabbed for fifth after completing the 2015-16 season tied for third with a 13-7 mark.
 
The Panthers own a 14-4 edge in the overall series after both teams won on their home floors. In fact, the road team hasn't won in this series since HPU won in Clinton, S.C. on Jan. 20, 2012 - eight straight home victories.
 
Last Time They Met
Kaylah Keys drilled 6-of-9 three-pointers en route to a 23-point outing in HPU's 61-47 win on Feb. 6, 2016.
 
Scouting the Blue Hose
PC has gone to a 4-guard lineup that will launch three's from anywhere. The squad has attempted 128 more three-pointers than any over Big South team. But the smaller lineup has caused issues on the glass where PC ranks eighth in the league with a -10.1 margin.
 
The Matchup to Watch
Sunday's contest pits two of the top three teams in the Big South in three-pointers attempted against each other. The Blue Hose's average outing is 7.4-of-26.5 while the Panthers post 6.2 makes on 18.7 attempts per contest. Last year, HPU shot 50 percent from three-point land in its win, but just 38 percent in its loss.
 
Next Up
HPU travels to Farmville, Va. to take on the Longwood Lancers on Tuesday at 7 p.m. The Purple & White swept the season series with Longwood last year.
