Willems leads No. 10 NIACC, 109-74
MASON CITY - In her second collegiate game, freshman Mandy Williams made her mark on the NIACC women's basketball record book.
Willems, a guard who prepped at AGWSR, scored 45 points, including 10 3-point goals in No. 10 NIACC's 109-74 victory over Bay College Saturday on Day Two of the annual Konigsmark Klassic.
The 45 points by Willems ranks second on the school's all-time single-game scoring list. Trudy Peterson owns the school record for points in a single game with 51 against Kennedy King College in the 2015-16 season.
The 10 3-point goals by Willems is tied for fourth in school history for most made 3-point goals in a single game. Jennifer Currier (1987-88) and Peterson (2015-16) are tied atop the single-game 3-point list with 12.
The last time a NIACC women's player scored at least 40 points in a game was when Taylor Laabs scored 42 points against Southwestern on Feb. 3, 2018. The last time a Lady Trojan made 10 3-point goals in a game was on Jan. 16, 2016 when Sammie Sproul drained 10 3-point goals against Ellsworth.
