Lady Jackets Ranked in Several Categories by NCAA (Feb. 8, 2005)

BILLINGS, MT – The Montana State-Billings women’s basketball team is ranked in top 45 in seven team statistical categories in this week’s NCAA Division II statistical rankings.  The Lady Jackets, 15-5 and ranked ninth in the West Region, host unbeaten North Dakota State at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday.  The new regional rankings will be released Wednesday afternoon.  MSU Billings knocked off fifth-ranked St. Martin’s on the road last week.

The NCAA ranks the top 50 teams in nine statistical categories.  The Yellowjackets are in the top 45 in seven of those categories.  They are 14th for field goal percentage defense (34.7), 29th for field goal percentage (44.5), 33rd for scoring margin (+12.4), 33rd for rebound margin (+6.3), 37th for free throw percentage (73.7), 42nd for 3-pointers per game (6.3), and 45th for scoring defense (58.4).

Individually, senior Robyn Milne (Richey, MT) is eighth in the nation for blocked shots per game at 3.6.  She climbed to 21st for career blocked shots in NCAA Division II history last week with a total of 245.  She is seven blocks from breaking into the top 20 all time.

Milne is also ranked 31st nationally for rebounds per game at 9.9.  Shannon Harvey (Billings, MT) continues to have a solid sophomore campaign, ranking 31st in the country for 3-point field goal percentage at 39.3 percent.

Following Saturday’s game against the Bison, the Yellowjackets wrap up their home schedule on February 18 and 19 against Grand Canyon.
