#1. Victoria Vivians (6'1''-G-1994, graduated '2018, plays pro in the WNBA) was the major contributor in an Indiana Fever's victory against the New York Liberty (1-4) 92-86 in the WNBA on Friday night. She scored 20 points and had 3 steals in 34 minutes. The Indiana Fever has rather weak 2-4 record this season. But this is still an early stage of the season and everything may happen. This year Vivians averages 9.8ppg, 3.7rpg, 2.2apg and 1.3spg.
#2. Teaira McCowan (6'7''-C-1996, graduated '2019, plays in the WNBA) contributed to a Dallas Wings' victory against the New York Liberty (1-4) 81-71 in the WNBA in Sunday night's game. She scored 8 points and grabbed 5 rebounds. The Dallas Wings have 3-2 record this season. But the season just started, so everything may happen. This year McCowan averages 4.3ppg and 2.3rpg in four games she played so far.
#3. Caterrion Thompson (5'11''-G, graduated '2022, currently in Bolivia) led her Bolivian team Carl A-Z to a victory over the fourth-ranked Malvin (0-3) 76-67 in the Liga Sudamericana last Friday. She was MVP of the game. Thompson scored 23 points and grabbed 4 rebounds in 40 minutes; quite an impressive performance considering it's only her first season in pro basketball. Carl A-Z Oruro (2-1) is placed second in group C. Thompson's team will play only one more game in the Liga Sudamericana Regular Season. And that game will be critical. Thompson has individually a very good season with high stats. She averages 16.7ppg, 4.0rpg and 1.3spg.
#4. Sherise Williams (6'2''-C/F-1993, graduated '2016, plays pro in Mexico) managed to help Teporacas de Chihuahua in a victory against the tenth-ranked Algodoneras (5-13) crushing them 100-58 in the Mexican LMBPF on Saturday night. She scored only 4 points. It was her first game for Teporacas this season. Her team is placed third in the LMBPF. It was her team's sixth consecutive victory in a row. There are only two games left until the end of the Regular Season. So now every game is very crucial.
