Best Start Since 2007-08
With back-to-back wins to start the 2014-15 campaign, the Owls are off to their best start since the 2007-08 season, when KSU also began the year with a pair of victories.
 
Double-Doubles
Junior Jasmine McAllister and redshirt-senior Breonna Mosely each recorded double-double performances in Monday's road win over Tennessee State. McAllister registered 25 points and 14 rebounds, while Mosely posted 13 points and 10 rebounds. The last pair of Owls to record double-doubles in the same contest was Chelcey Farrar (10pts, 11rbs) and Sametria Gideon (11pts, 11rbs) at Florida Gulf Coast on Jan. 28, 2012 during the 2011-12 season.
 
Season Opening Win
For the first time since the 2007-08 season, the Owls won its season opening game with the program's first win over the College of Charleston on Friday night. KSU had last won a season opening contest on Nov. 9, 2007 in a 74-70 overtime win over Jacksonville State.
 
Home Openers
The Owls have now won three-consecutive home openers after earning the 68-61 win over the Cougars on Friday, as KSU also notched wins over Tennessee State last season and against Troy in the 2012-13 home opener at the KSU Convocation Center.
 
Mosely's Debut
After not playing in a collegiate game for almost two years, Mosely came back better than ever with 19 points in her KSU debut on Friday night, including a 6-of-11 effort from the field and a perfect 7-of-7 mark from the free throw line.
 
Owls in Double Figures
The Owls had four players contribute double figure point totals against the College of Charleston on Friday, led by Mosely's 19 points. Senior Kristina Wells added 14 points, sophomore Deandrea Sawyers had 12 points and McAllister registered 11 points. The last time KSU had four players in double figures was in the Owls' 88-79 win at Lipscomb a season ago on Feb. 6, 2014.
 
Wells Named to A-Sun Preseason A-Sun All-Conference Team
Wells earned a spot on the 2014-15 Preseason Atlantic Sun All-Conference Team after having a breakout season in 2013-14.
