Last Time Out
The Deacs dropped two ACC road games last week, turning in a lackluster performance in a 76-47 loss to Florida State and playing extremely well in a tight 60-54 defeat by Georgia Tech. At FSU on Feb. 3rd, Wake turned in one of its worst performances of the season, hitting just 29.8 percent from the floor (17 of 57) and committing 25 turnovers. The Seminoles never trailed in the game and led 33-22 at halftime. The Deacs cut the lead to nine with a basket in the opening minute of the second period, but that was as close as they would get. FSU outscored WFU 45-23 in the second half, leading by as many as 30 points. Junior forward Kristen Shaffer led the Deacs with 14 points, while sophomore guard Adell Harris added a career-high 11 points.
A completely different squad took the floor three days later in Atlanta, as the Deacs jumped to a 10-4 lead over Georgia Tech and fought to the finish. The Yellow Jackets caught up to Wake midway through the first half, and the game was neck-and neck from that point on with 14 lead changes. Wake led 31-28 at halftime and held a 51-46 edge with 5:00 remaining, but GT held the Deacs without a field goal in the final 2:00. Wake turned the ball over on three of its last five possessions while Tech hit six free throws to pull out the win. Junior forward Brenda Mock Kirkpatrick had an outstanding day for the Deacs, posting her fourth double-double of the season with 14 points and a career-high 15 rebounds. Harris dished six assists for WFU.
Scouting Wake Forest
Through 22 games, WFU is averaging just 57.5 points per outing, shooting only 38.3 percent from the floor. Senior guard Alisha Mosley is the only Deacon averaging in double figures (11.0 ppg), while junior forward Brenda Mock Kirkpatrick contributes 8.9 points and a team-high 7.3 rebounds per game. Despite having several three-point shooters, Wake has struggled from behind the arc, shooting just 25.9 percent. Defensively, the Deacs have held opponents to 65.6 points per game on 38.6 percent shooting. Wake has been outrebounded by a 5.4 margin, including double-digit deficits in seven of the last 12 games, and WFU's opponents have gone to the free throw line an average of 7.8 more times per game.
Scouting Duke
After a 16-1 start to the season, the Blue Devils (18-4, 7-3 ACC) had dropped three of their last five games heading into Friday's night's game vs. Georgia Tech. All three losses have come in conference play, to No. 6 NC State, No. 25 Virginia and unranked Maryland. Duke played its last two games without senior forward Peppi Browne (13.7 ppg, 6.8 rpg in 20 starts), who tore the ACL in her knee. Through Feb. 7th, the Blue Devils were averaging 74.0 points per game on 44.6 percent shooting, including a league-best 36.8 percent from three-point range. Duke is also exceptional >from the foul line, leading the ACC with a 76.6 free throw percentage. In addition, the Devils lead the league in scoring defense (55.0 ppg), scoring margin (+19.0) and rebound margin (+7.5). Duke is led by junior forward Georgia Schweitzer (16.1 ppg), who has hit 41.2 percent of her threes this year. Senior forward Lauren Rice and Browne lead the team in rebounding (6.8 rpg).
Series Histories
Duke holds a 31-19 advantage in the all-time series with Wake Forest, and the Blue Devils have won the last 14 straight meetings. The Deacs' last win over Duke came in the 1992-93 season, when Wake earned a 60-59 decision the the ACC Tournament first round. Earlier this year, Missy West scored 22 points, 17 of which came in the first half, to lead No. 11 Duke to an 82-48 blowout of Wake Forest in Durham. The Devils outrebounded the Deacs, 44-22, and hit 10 of 20 three-pointers. Junior guard Janae Whiteside led WFU with 11 points.

Rebounding Woes
Rebounding has been a serious concern this season for the Deacs, who have been outboarded by 14 of 22 opponents. On the year, Wake owns a rebound margin of -5.4, worst in the ACC. WFU has been outrebounded by double-digit margins in eight games, including seven of the last 12 outings. In ACC games, the Deacs own a -7.5 rebound margin and have given up 16.9 offensive boards per game.
A Significant Win
The Deacs' 69-56 win over No. 15 North Carolina on Jan. 16th was significant in a number of ways. It marked Wake's first win over UNC in nine years, snapping an 18-game Tar Heel winning streak that dated back to 1991. It also marked WFU's first win over an AP-ranked team since a 75-64 victory over No. 18 NC State on Feb. 25, 1996, and was the program's 14th-ever win over a ranked team. The 56 points was the fewest UNC has scored against WFU since a 61-53 decision in 1988.
Dee-Fense
Despite struggling to put points on the board, the Deacs have benefitted from a strong defense this year. Wake has held opponents to 65.6 points per game and a 38.6 shooting percentage, keeping seven opponents under 60 points and allowing only eight teams to shoot 40 percent or better from the floor. No team has shot 50 percent or better on the Deacs this year, and No. 11 Duke and No. 11 NC State have been the only two teams this year to score 80 points vs. WFU.
Mosley Moves Into Starting Lineup
Senior guard Alisha Mosley, who led the Deacs in scoring from off the bench in the first 15 games, stepped up her game after moving into the starting lineup. Playing the three position in Wake's three-guard lineup, she averaged 16.6 points, 6.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.4 steals per game in her first five starts, shooting 47 percent from the floor, 35 percent from the arc and 83 percent from the line. In the last two games, however, she netted just six points in each outing. On the season, Mosley leads the team in scoring (11.0 ppg) and has hit double figures on 13 occassions.
Robinson Increases Offensive Output
Sophomore center LaChina Robinson has emerged as more of an offensive threat for the Deacs this season after establishing herself as a defensive force last year. Robinson earned ACC All-Freshman honors in 1998-99, averaging 5.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 0.8 blocks per game. This year, she has netted 8.0 points per game and scored in double figures eight times, including a 17-point performance in the win over Florida State. Robinson is shooting 53 percent from the floor and leads the team in blocks (0.8 bpg).
Dardy Out for Season
Junior forward Olivia Dardy will miss the rest of the season after undergo surgery on her left knee for recurrent patella subluxation (shifting of the kneecap) on Feb. 10th. The team's top returning scorer and rebounder (9.6 ppg, 6.8 rpg in 98-99), Dardy averaged 3.9 points and 3.1 rebounds in 10 games this year. Injuries have plagued her this season, though, as she missed five games due to a stress fracture in her foot earlier in the year.
Three-Point Arsenal
Wake Forest ranked No. 1 in the ACC and No. 19 in the nation last year in three-point shooting, averaging 6.1 threes per game and shattering the school records for threes made (172) and attempted (502) in a season. All but one of Wake's long-range gunners returned this year, yet the Deacs have yet to catch fire from outside. Despite all of its outside shooting weapons, Wake has hit just 26 percent of its threes this year (76 of 291), averaging 3.7 treys per game.
Wake's key three-point shooters are junior guard Janae Whiteside (25.9%), who hit 50 percent of her threes and averaged 5.4 treys per game in the last seven games of 98-99, sophomore guard Val Klopfer (24.3%), who hit 38 percent of her threes last season, and senior guard Alisha Mosley (30.5%), who ranks among the top four all-time three-point shooters at WFU (see note below). Other Deacs with three-point range include sophomore guard Adell Harris, junior forwards Kristen Shaffer, Brenda Mock Kirkpatrick and Olivia Dardy, freshman forward Heather Miller, and even rookie center Johanna Bjorklund.
Kirkpatrick A Force Down Low
Junior forward Brenda Mock Kirkpatrick, a team co-captain, has emerged as a force down low for the Deacs this year. In her first year as a starter, Kirkpatrick leads the Deacs and ranks eighth in the ACC in rebounding (7.3 rpg) and is second on the team in scoring (8.9 ppg). She has 11 double-figure scoring outings and five double-figure rebound games, including four double-doubles. Kirkpatrick has been the team's leading rebounder in 14 games.

Solid From The Stripe
Senior guard Alisha Mosley has been outstanding from the free throw line this season, ranking second in the ACC with an 80.0 free throw percentage (60 of 75). Three other Deacs also average over 80 percent from the line, although they doesn't go often enough to rank among the ACC leaders - junior guard Janae Whiteside (22 of 26, .846), sophomore guard Val Klopfer (12 of 15, .800) and freshman center Johanna Bjorklund (8 of 10, .800).
Overall, the Deacs have been quite good from the free throw line this season (when they've gotten there), hitting over 70 percent from the line in 11 of 22 games. However, the Deacs are shooting at just a 64 percent clip in ACC games after knocking down 71 percent in the non-conference schedule.
Miller Time
Freshman forward Heather Miller has had two big scoring bursts this season, exploding for 17 points vs. No. 13 LSU and racking up a career-high 21 points vs. Georgia Tech. She's been relatively quiet in her other 20 games, however, averaging just under two points per game. A USA Today High School All-American, Miller scored 2,395 points in her high school career.
Reaching New Heights
This season, WFU has six players on the roster who stand 6-0 or taller, including three who top the 6-4 mark: 6-4 sophomore center LaChina Robinson, 6-5 freshman center Johanna Bjorklund - the tallest player ever to don a WFU uniform - and 6-4 redshirt freshman forward LaTisha Pearson.
A Look at the Rookies
All four of the Deacs' rookies have seen significant action this year. Swing player Heather Miller (3.7 ppg, 1.5 rpg) has seen 8.1 minutes of action and had two double-figure outings. Forward Tiffani Listenbee (1.8 ppg, 1.7 rpg, 0.4 bpg) has played 9.4 minutes per game and netted six points and six boards vs. NC State. Center Johanna Bjorklund (2.3 ppg, 2.0 rpg, 0.5 bpg) has averaged 10.2 minutes and ranks sixth in the ACC with 0.8 blocks per game in conference outings. Redshirt freshman forward/center LaTisha Pearson (0.1 ppg, 1.0 rpg) has appeared in 14 games for and average of 4.9 minutes, she played a season-high 20 minutes vs. NC State.
Oh Captain, My Captain
Redshirt junior forward Brenda Mock Kirkpatrick and junior guard Janae Whiteside were selected as the Deacons' team captains for the 1999-2000 season by a preseason vote of their teammates and coaches.
Going Deep
In each of her three years at WFU, coach Charlene Curtis has gone deep into her bench in nearly every game. In fact, the 11 returning players this year had seen time in 98 percent of their career games, with the five upperclassmen missing only one game between them. Curtis has continued to go deep into her bench this year, as 11 of 13 players average over eight minutes per game apiece.
Biedrycki Transfers
Sophomore center Elizabeth Biedrycki elected to leave the WFU women's basketball program in December, transferring to Division II Wingate University at the end of the fall semester. As a freshman last year, she played under 10 minutes per game in 27 contests, averaging 1.7 points and 0.9 rebounds. She played 2.8 minutes per game in five games this year, tallying six points and seven rebounds.
In Remembrance
The Deacs wear black armbands on their uniforms this season in remembrance of former assistant coach Stacy Cox, who died in a car accident on Nov. 8th. Cox, 35, played under current head coach Charlene Curtis at Radford, then served as an assistant on Curtis' staffs at Radford, Temple and WFU (1997-99). She left the Deacon staff in August of 1999 to accept a teaching and coaching position at an elementary school in New Jersey.

Noteable Deac
A former Deacon appeared in Sports Illustrated's recent issue on the 50 greatest sports figures of the century from each of the 50 states. Nicole Levesque, who played for the Deacs from 1990-94 and still ranks as the school's all-time leading three-point shooter, was selected as No. 17 from Vermont as the only athlete from the state to play in the WNBA. Levesque is now an assistant coach at the University of Vermont.
Iron Women
Senior guard Alisha Mosley has played in every single game of her collegiate career at Wake Forest, a streak which now totals 105 games over the last four years. Other "iron women" who have yet to miss a game include junior forwards Brenda Mock Kirkpatrick and Kristen Shaffer (77 straight). Sophomore center LaChina Robinson is the only Deac who has started every game of her collegiate career (49 straight).
Iron Women, Part II
Junior forward Kristen Shaffer, sophomore guard Val Klopfer and freshman forward Heather Miller all achieved "Gold Club" status in the Wake Forest weight room this year. To earn such a distinction, athletes must meet high standards in several strength and conditioning exercises.
Tip-Ins
The 4,031 fans that witnessed Wake's 69-56 upset of No. 15 North Carolina marked the largest home women's basketball crowd in school history ... six different opponents this year have corralled over 20 offensive rebounds against the Deacs, while Wake has done so only three times ... no team has shot over 50 percent from the floor against WFU this year, and only eight have topped 40 percent ... this year marked the third straight season that a Deacon freshman has posted a 20+ point performance vs. Georgia Tech - Heather Miller scored 21 vs. Tech on Jan. 6th, while LaChina Robinson netted 22 last year and Olivia Dardy collected 28 in 1997-98 ... the 11 free throws Alisha Mosley made vs. UNC were the most by a Deacon since Nicole Levesque sunk 14 (of 14) against Georgia Tech on Feb. 26, 1994.
