2) Brink with 21 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists, 3/3 free throws, 2 blocks, and 5 steals.  An incredible stat line.

4) No one else contributed much offensively, but Ogden was 2/2 and continues to look as if she is coming into her own. 

2) Brink's box score-filing stats her helped earn her a USBWA National Player of the Week nod (though Beers edged her out for P12 player of the week in leading her team to the road sweep over Utah and Colorado).  After being limited by fouls (and injury) at the beginning of the Pac 12 season Brink has seen a minutes explosion the past 4 games (an average of almost 37 minutes) while keeping her fouls in check (only 2 fouls per game).  Very encouraging as we approach post-season tournament games where we may need every minute of Brink we can get.  Even more encouraging is that Brink hasn't faded at the end.  She had 6 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists (and a 12 efficiency) in the 4th quarter vs Washington State.  She also had 7 points, 2 rebounds and assist and a block (and a 10 efficiency) in the 5 minute overtime vs Washington.  A 2.0 efficiency per minute rate in an overtime game for a big that's played more than 40 minutes is insane. This is an extremely encouraging turnaround for her. Tara seems to want to build that stamina as she has taken the reigns off lately.  Brink played most of the 4th quarter vs UCLA even though we entered the quarter with an 23 point lead.   

2) Ogden's had some good games as of late.  Her 5-7 vs Washington was big for the team (especially when Lepolo and Jump were 4-18). Tara's been putting her in in key moments and, for the most part, she's looked confident in those moments.  Coming along at the right time.
