Lewis-Eutsey had a career-best 36-point performance against Central Michigan Saturday. She has nine games this season with over 20 points, and now has had five 30-plus point games this season, only of only six players in the nation to do so.

Additionally on Saturday, Marshall's transfer guard joined Notre Dame's Hannah Hidalgo as the only players in DI with 35 points and eight steals in a game this season.

In league play alone, Timaya is averaging 25.4 points, 6.4 assists and 4.4 steals per game over her last seven games. The Herd's senior was named Sun Belt Conference Player of the Week for the third time this season earlier Tuesday.

Abby Beeman was Marshall's last Ann Meyers Drysdale National Player of the Week honoree in January 2024.
