THE GAME
The Bowling Green State University women's basketball team, off to a 3-0 start in Mid-American Conference play, finishes the first foray through the East Division with a two-game road swing ... the Falcons of head coach Curt Miller (13-2, 3-0 MAC), riding a six-game winning streak, will begin that two-game swing with a Saturday (Jan. 13) contest at Ohio University ... tipoff is 4:00 p.m. at the Convocation Center (13,168) ... BGSU is currently ranked 18th in the nation, the highest-ever ranking for a MAC program, in both the USA Today ESPN and Associated Press polls ... the Falcons, the defending back-to-back MAC champions, have won 47 of the last 53 overall games and the last 28 contests vs. MAC foes.
BGSU SETS MAC RECORD FOR CONSECUTIVE WINS
The Falcons will put an impressive streak on the line Saturday ... BGSU's 74-52 win over Kent State on Wednesday night (Jan. 10) was the Falcons' 28th consecutive victory against MAC opposition, dating to the 2004-05 season ... that total sets new school and conference records ... BG suffered a loss at Eastern Michigan on Feb. 19, 2005, then won three consecutive games to close the regular season ... the Falcons went 3-0 in the 2005 Kraft MAC Tournament to win the tourney title and advance to the NCAA Championships ... the '05-06 edition of the Brown and Orange reeled off 16 consecutive victories in conference play, and captured three more wins vs. league foes in the MAC Tournament ... and, BGSU has opened the 2006-07 conference campaign with three wins, over Akron, Buffalo and KSU.
FALCONS SET SCHOOL, MAC RECORDS
BGSU, as mentioned, has won 28 consecutive games (regular-season and tournament) against MAC foes ... the Falcons have broken the school and conference records for consecutive victories ... the mark was originally set by Fran Voll's Falcon teams which won 27-straight games vs. league opposition from Feb. 18, 1988 to Jan. 3, 1990 ... of the six such streaks over 20 games in league history, four have been compiled by Bowling Green.
BGSU RANKED 18TH IN NATION
The Falcons are ranked 18th in the latest Associated Press Top-25 poll, released Monday afternoon (Jan. 8) ... and, BGSU is also 18th in the USA Today/ESPN poll, announced Tuesday (Jan. 9) ... those are the highest rankings in BGSU and MAC history ... BG made the biggest jump in this week's AP poll, moving up six spots from last week's 24th-place ranking.
ABOUT THE FALCONS
* The Falcons enter the Ohio contest with a 13-2 overall record and a 3-0 MAC mark on the season, and BGSU has won the last six games ... BG is coming off a 74-52 home win over Kent State Wednesday (Jan. 10), in a battle of MAC unbeatens ... the Falcons, who also have wins over Akron (61-32; Jan. 3) and Buffalo (75-42; Jan. 6) in conference play, are 7-0 at home, 3-1 in road games and 3-1 in neutral-site contests ... BGSU's only losses have come at Notre Dame in overtime (85-81, Nov. 13) and to fourth-ranked Duke by only nine points (55-46, Dec. 19) in Cancun, Mexico ... the loss to Duke (now ranked third in the nation) snapped a six-game winning streak for head coach Curt Miller's squad ... following that game, the Brown and Orange bounced back with a 59-48 win over Texas-Arlington, before topping Delaware, Robert Morris and the three MAC foes to date.
* Three BG players are averaging double digits in scoring, with two others recording over nine points per game ... senior Ali Mann has 15.7 points to lead the way, while classmates Carin Horne (11.6) and Liz Honegger (11.0) are also in double digits ... senior Amber Flynn (9.7) and junior Kate Achter (9.1) are fourth and fifth, respectively, on the team in scoring ... Honegger paces the Falcons in rebounding, with 5.5 per game, while Horne has 4.8 rebounds per outing ... Achter has a team-high 5.3 assists per contest, and Mann is second with 2.7 apg ... Horne (1.8 spg) and Achter (1.5 spg) rank 1-2 on the team in steals, and the Falcons' team defensive play has led to seven total players averaging at least one steal per game ... Honegger leads BG with 1.0 blocked shots per outing, and also has a team-high 36 three-point field goals made (in 77 attempts) this year.
* Flynn is shooting a team-best 66.3 percent from the field, while Mann is shooting 56.4% ... senior Megan Thorburn has 6.5 ppg, and has a 43.1% three-point field-goal rate ... she ranks third on the team in that category, trailing Mann (52.8%) and Honegger (46.8%).
* In addition to Flynn, sophomore Jasmine McCall has seen action in all 15 games off the bench, while classmate Lindsey Goldsberry has played in 14 ... McCall has 2.9 points and 2.0 assists per outing, while Goldsberry also has 2.9 ppg on the year ... junior Whitney Taylor played in nine of the season's first 10 games, averaging 3.1 ppg, but is likely out for the season due to injury.
* BGSU is averaging 74.5 points per game, while allowing just 53.7 ... the Falcons are shooting 47.6 percent from the field, and have made 119 three-point field goals - 7.93 per game - in 293 tries (40.6%) ... BG has limited the foes to just a 36.7% field-goal rate and a 28.0% effort from long range (65-for-232 from beyond the arc) ... BGSU has made 56 more free throws than the opponents (222 to 166) ... the Falcons have a 70.3% success rate from the free-throw line, while the opposition is shooting 69.7% from the stripe.
* Miller and Company returned all five starters, and nine total letterwinners, from last year's team that finished 28-3 and won the MAC with a perfect 16-0 league ledger ... freshmen Tara Breske, Laura Bugher and Sarah Clapper round out the active roster ... Clapper has played in 12 contests and Breske and Bugher 11 apiece.
* Last year's 28-win total set school and conference records for victories in a season ... BGSU, after winning the league's regular-season title for the second year in a row, went on to win the Kraft MAC Tournament for the second-straight March ... the returning players combined for 92.9 percent of the team's scoring and 90.7% of the Falcons' rebounding total.
HEAD COACH Curt Miller
BGSU head coach Curt Miller has turned the Falcon program around, to say the least, during his time in Northwest Ohio ... Miller has been named the MAC Coach of the Year in each of the last two seasons, and was the 2006 Russell Athletic/WBCA Region Four Coach of the Year as well ... his career record currently stands at 106-58, in his sixth year ... over the last three-plus seasons, Miller and the Falcons are 85-23 ... BGSU has gone 43-8 in MAC regular-season play in that time, and 52-9 in all games vs. league foes during that span (9-1 in league tourney play).

THE FALCONS VS. THE MAC
The Falcons have a proud history in the MAC ... BG enters Saturday's game at Ohio with an overall league record of 281-135 (.675), the best of all conference institutions ... additionally, BGSU leads the all-time series with all 11 MAC opponents ... BG, obviously, is the only team in the league with a winning series mark against every other MAC school.
FALCONS VS. THE MAC II
In addition to leading the all-time series with every other MAC school, BGSU is the lone MAC team to currently hold a winning streak against each of the other 11 league institutions ... the Falcons went 13-3 in MAC regular season play in '04-05, with the only losses coming to Eastern Michigan (two) and Kent State ... but, BGSU avenged those setbacks by beating EMU in the Kraft MAC Tournament's semifinal round and KSU in the 2005 championship game ... and, BG picked up wins in all 19 games vs. league foes in 2005-06 before starting '06-07 with the wins over Akron, Buffalo and Kent State.
HOME SWEET HOME
BGSU has had a great deal of success at Anderson Arena over the past few seasons ... the Falcons went a perfect 11-0 in home games last season, and - after downing Kent State, 74-52, Wednesday (Jan. 10) - have won 25 consecutive games at "The House That Roars" ... BG's homecourt winning streak is the second longest in the nation.
ROAD SWEET ROAD?
The Falcons have achieved a measure of success away from home as well ... BGSU has won 16 of the last 18 road games, dating to late in the 2004-05 season ... BGSU's only two road losses in that span each came in overtime, at Kentucky (66-62; Jan. 2, 2006) and Notre Dame (85-81; Nov. 13, 2006) ... since the start of the 2003-04 season, the Falcons are 21-4 on the road in league action and 32-12 overall ... that comes on the heels of a four-year span in which BG was 15-39 on the road and 8-24 in MAC road games ... after the win at Akron, the Falcons have won 10-straight league road contests.
BGSU HAS HIGHEST-EVER RANKING IN BOTH NATIONAL POLLS
The Falcons have reached uncharted waters in terms of national rankings ... BGSU is ranked 18th in the nation in the Associated Press Top-25 poll, as of Monday afternoon (Jan. 8) ... that is the highest ranking for a MAC team in league history ... and, on Tuesday (Jan 9), BG moved up a spot to 18th in the nation in the USA Today/ESPN Coaches poll ... the Falcons have been ranked in the USA Today/ESPN poll for seven consecutive weeks, and BGSU has been listed in the AP poll in each of the last four weeks ... a few more facts about BGSU, the MAC and the polls ...
* BGSU's rankings of 18th, as mentioned, are the highest ever by a MAC institution ... the Falcons had/have been ranked 19th once in each poll (in the AP poll on March 16, 1993; in the USA Today ESPN poll last week [Jan. 2]).
* The Falcons' current run of seven consecutive weeks in the USA Today/ESPN poll has broken the school and MAC longevity records ... the old mark of five weeks was set by last year's BGSU club, which was ranked in the USA Today/ESPN poll from Feb. 14 to March 13, 2006.
* The current runs (in each poll) mark only the fourth and fifth times in MAC history that a league school has had a run of three consecutive weeks in the top 25 ... three of those instances have been in the USA Today poll, with the other two in the Associated Press poll, but the Falcons have been that MAC team on all five occasions.
* BGSU was ranked in each of the two polls last year, marking the program's first appearance in a national poll in 12 years, and the first appearance for a MAC program in over four years.
* The Jan. 9 USA Today/ESPN poll marked the 19th week in MAC history that a league institution has been listed in that poll, and BGSU has been that team in 16 of the 19 weeks, including 12 weeks under Curt Miller.
* The Jan. 8 ranking in the Associated Press marked the 16th week that a MAC club has been listed in that poll ... BG has been that team in 12 of those 16 weeks (six during Miller's tenure).
THE FALCONS ARE ...
* 106-58 in the five-plus years since Curt Miller took the helm in May of 2001;
* 54-29 in MAC games in that time;
* 85-23 overall and 43-8 in the MAC over the last three-plus seasons, since the current senior class arrived on campus in the fall of 2003;
* 47-6 in the last 53 overall games since February of 2005 (with the losses coming to Kansas State [2005 NCAA Tournament], Delaware, Kentucky, UCLA [2006 NCAA Tournament], Notre Dame and Duke);
* 6-0 in games after a loss during that time;
* 13-0 in games decided by double digits this season;
* 6-0 in games decided by over 30 points in 2006-07;
* 28-0 in the last 28 games against MAC opponents (setting new school and conference records), since a loss at Eastern Michigan on Feb. 19, 2005;
* 9-1 in the MAC Tournament in the last three seasons;
* 25-0 in the last 25 home games, the second-longest active home winning streak in the nation;
* 11-1 in the last 12 road games (with the overtime loss at Notre Dame snapping a nine-game road winning streak since an OT setback at Kentucky on Jan. 2, 2006);
* 45-0 when outrebounding the opponent since the start of the 2004-05 season;
* 40-3 when holding the opponent to fewer than 70 points since the start of the 2005-06 season (BGSU has only allowed three teams - UCLA, Notre Dame and Robert Morris - to top the 70-point mark in the last 46 games);
* 5-3 in games played on Jan. 13, including 0-1 against Ohio;
* 1-2 in road games on that date (including the Ohio contest, an 87-78 Bobcat victory in Athens in 1996); and
* 0-0 in the Curt Miller Era on Jan. 13.
FALCONS BY CLASS
THE SENIORS
BGSU's senior class is one of the finest in school history ... that group includes four returning starters in Liz Honegger, Carin Horne, Ali Mann and Megan Thorburn ... additionally, Amber Flynn was one of the most improved players in the MAC last season, and has picked up right where she left off ... a sixth senior, Julie Gompers, missed each of the last two seasons due to injury and will again be sidelined in 2006-07 ... the class has been an integral part of the Falcons' 85-23 overall mark in the last three-plus years, and BG has advanced to the championship game of the MAC Tournament every year since they arrived.
THE JUNIORS
The Falcons' two juniors, Kate Achter and Whitney Taylor, have helped BGSU win MAC regular-season and tournament titles in each of their first two seasons ... BG has an overall record of 64-13 since the two arrived on campus, and the Falcons are 61-9 when Achter is in the starting lineup ... Taylor has played in nine games this year, but is sidelined due to an injury suffered in practice on Dec. 26.
THE SOPHOMORES
Lindsey Goldsberry and Jasmine McCall have seen their team win over 90 percent of its games (41-5 to date), and the two players have never been a part of a loss to a MAC opponent, as the Falcons are 22-0 against league opposition since the start of last season ... McCall has played in all 46 of BGSU's games in her career to date, while Goldsberry has action in 44 contests, making two starts.
THE FRESHMEN
Tara Breske (Temperance, Mich.), Laura Bugher (Greenwood, Ind.) and Sarah Clapper (Newark, Ohio) are the newest additions to the BG program ... Clapper has played in 12 games, while Breske and Bugher each have seen action in 11 games to date ... the Falcons have yet to lose a game when any of the three frosh see playing time.
SCOUTING OHIO
Ohio will enter Saturday's action with an overall record of 8-7, and the Bobcats are 1-2 in MAC play to date ... OU began the conference season with road losses against Kent State and Miami, but the 'Cats returned home and picked up a 69-66 win over Buffalo Wednesday (Jan. 10) ... Ohio has a record of 6-1 at the Convocation Center this year to date, with the lone loss coming by single digits to nationally-ranked Pittsburgh ... individually, junior guard Lauren Kohn leads the team in scoring, with 15.8 points per game, and sophomore G/F Rachel Frederick has 15.2 points and a team-leading 8.9 rebounds per outing ... Kohn, a transfer from Syracuse, is in her first playing season with the Bobcats ... the two players are in the MAC's top-seven in scoring, and Frederick is third in boards ... junior guard Simone Redd rounds out the team's double-digit scorers with 11.2 points, but has missed the last two games due to injury ... senior forward Domenica Silva has 8.1 points and 5.3 boards, and junior guard Quintana Ward averages 7.3 points and a team-high 5.5 assists per contest ... Silvia Crawley, in her first year as a collegiate head coach, joined a Bobcat program that returned six letterwinners, including three starters ... last year's team went 9-20 overall and 5-11 in MAC play ... the school's athletics web site is ohiobobcats.com.
THE SERIES
The Falcons lead Ohio, 40-18, in the all-time series between the teams, and BGSU holds a slim 14-12 lead in road games vs. the Bobcats ... the Falcons have won the last two meetings at 'The Convo,' and BG has captured the last five overall series meetings ... the Brown and Orange swept last season's matchups, a 77-63 decision at Anderson Arena (Jan. 18, 2006) and a 65-61 win in Athens the following month (Feb. 18, 2006) ... the latter game was one of BG's closest contests of the conference season, as the Falcons survived a flu bug (Carin Horne missed the game), a less-than-stellar day at the free-throw line and a scrappy Bobcat club to gut out a win ... 14 of the last 19 series meetings have been decided by 10 points or fewer.
DOUBLE-DOUBLE FOR HONEGGER
Senior Liz Honegger tied for game honors with 17 points vs. Kent State, and she added a team-high 10 rebounds in the win over the Golden Flashes Wednesday night (Jan. 10) ... the double-digit rebounding total was the second for Honegger - and for the Falcons - this season, and her double-double was the first by a BGSU player in 2006-07 ... Honegger now has 29 double-figure rebounding games and 20 double-doubles in her career, the most among active Falcons in each category.
MANN EARNS SCHOLAR-ATHLETE HONORS
Senior Ali Mann was named the MAC's Female Scholar-Athlete of the Week, the conference office announced Thursday evening (Jan. 11) ... Mann earned the honor for her performance in the wins over Akron and Buffalo ... she averaged a team-high 17.0 points along with 4.5 rebounds per game, and single-handedly outscored UB in the first half of that game.
FALCONS GET DEFENSIVE
The Falcons have put the clamps on opposing defenses in the three MAC games to date ... BGSU is allowing just 42.0 points per game against conference foes, and the Falcons have let the opposition shoot just 33.6 percent from the field and 15.6% (5-of-32) from three-point range in the three games to date ... BG has forced the last three foes into a total of 70 turnovers, an average of 23.3 per game.
FALCONS GET DEFENSIVE II
In the MAC opener at Akron (Jan. 3), BGSU allowed just 32 points ... that marked the lowest total surrendered by the Brown and Orange in a game in over three decades (since a 77-25 BG victory over Ohio Northern on Feb. 11, 1975) ... the Zips' total was the fifth-lowest in school history, with the only lower totals coming in the first two seasons in program annals.
FALCONS GET DEFENSIVE III
After allowing only 32 points at Akron, the Falcons gave up just 42 points against Buffalo last Saturday (Jan. 6) ... BGSU's total of 74 points allowed is tied for the fourth-lowest total in school history in back-to-back games ... as is the case with the single-game opponent scoring record, the other totals in the top-five all came within the first two years of the BG varsity program.
SHE'S THE MANN
Is there anything that Ali Mann can't do on the basketball court? Let's review a few of the accomplishments by the senior over the last several weeks ...
* She had 15 second-half points against Duke (Dec. 19) ... Mann scored the first eight points of the second half to give BGSU a 31-25 lead and force the Blue Devils to take a timeout.
* The next night (Dec. 20), Mann had 16 points vs. Texas-Arlington ... that total included a back-breaking three-pointer to seal the win ... she had tipped the ball to a teammate for a key offensive rebound just prior to that triple.
* Again scored 15 second-half points, en route to 18 for the game, in the win over Delaware (Dec. 29) ... after the Falcons went more than 12 minutes without a field goal, Mann scored eight-straight BG points in a span of under two minutes to spark a major Falcon run ... in addition to her 18 points, Mann dished out a career-high six assists in the win over the Fightin' Blue Hens.
* Two days later (Dec. 31), Mann had five more assists, leading the Falcons in that category, and also scored 16 points in BG's win over Robert Morris.
* Mann averaged a team-high 15.7 points per game in the 12 non-conference games in November and December, and she is also averaging 15.7 ppg in the three MAC contests to date.
MANN A MODEL OF CONSISTENCY
Senior Ali Mann has been a model of consistency for the Falcons, both in 2006-07 and in her career ... she had a double-digit effort vs. Kent State, with 13 points Wednesday (Jan. 10) ... Mann, who has played in 108 games as a Falcon, now has scored in double digits no fewer than 85 times ... the lone Falcon to score 10 points or more in all 15 games this season, she has hit double figures in 22-straight games dating to last year.
FLYNN-TASTIC
Senior Amber Flynn has become a force off the bench for the Falcons, and is a strong candidate for this year's MAC Sixth Man of the Year award ... Flynn had a career-high 16 points in the Falcons' win over UT-Arlington (Dec. 20), and that game began a three-game stretch in which she shot a combined 18-for-22 (81.8%) from the field ... most recently, Flynn had 10 points in just 20 minutes vs. Buffalo, and 10 more points in 21 minutes against Kent State ... the KSU game marked her ninth double-figure scoring effort of the year ... Flynn is averaging 9.7 points and 3.9 rebounds, and has an otherworldly field-goal pct. of 66.3% (59-for-89).
A VETERAN STARTING LINEUP
BGSU's starting lineup features four seniors - Liz Honegger, Carin Horne, Ali Mann and Megan Thorburn - as well as a junior, Kate Achter ... entering the Ohio game, that group has combined to make no fewer than 424 starts in their respective Falcon careers to date ... each of the five has started at least 67 games.
THAT'S A LOT OF STARTS
As mentioned, the five BGSU starters have combined to make a total of 424 starts in the Brown and Orange ... two members of that group, seniors Liz Honegger and Ali Mann, have moved onto the individual career list for games started ... Honegger has made 107 career starts, while Mann has started 106 games ... Honegger is third, while Mann is tied for fourth on that list ... Jackie Motycka (1985-89) holds the school record with 115 starts, a record that both Honegger and Mann have a chance to break before the year is out.
HONEGGER RULES THE BLOCK
It was only a matter of time before senior Liz Honegger became the Falcons' all-time record-holder in blocked shots .... and, for the Lafayette, Ind., native, the record came in her home state ... Honegger blocked four Notre Dame shot attempts (Nov. 13), moving her past Angie Bonner (155) into first place on the BG list ... Honegger now has 166 career blocks, and owns all of the BGSU records ... she set the single-game record as a freshman, and has tied or broken the school season marks - both overall and in MAC games - in each of her first three seasons ... not surprisingly, she is on pace to shatter the BG career mark for blocks per game, and is currently at 1.55 bpg for her career.
HONEGGER SETS YET ANOTHER BGSU CAREER RECORD
In November, senior Liz Honegger broke the BGSU career record for blocked shots ... in December, she set the school record for three-point field goals made ... and, on New Year's Eve, Honegger became the BG record-holder for triples attempted ... Honegger was a perfect 3-for-3 from long range in the Texas-Arlington game (Dec. 20) ... the third trey came with 45 seconds left in the opening half, and was the 174th of her career to set a new record ... against Robert Morris (Dec. 31), she went 3-for-6 from three-point land, in the process setting the mark for three-pointers attempted ... entering the Ohio game, Honegger now has made 187 triples in 511 attempts in her Falcon tenure.
HONEGGER IN A CLASS BY HERSELF IN THE MAC ...
Liz Honegger is making her mark as one of the top players in school history, and one of the most versatile ... she has accomplished something that no other BGSU - or MAC - player has ever done ... Honegger is the only player in MAC history to block at least 125 shots and make at least 125 three-point field goals in her career ... in fact, she is way beyond those totals, and enters the Ohio game with 187 treys and 167 rejections ... only two other players in MAC annals reached as many as 100 in both categories (Stephanie Smiley [EMU, 1998-2002], 174 3's, 103 blocks; Tamara Bowie [BSU, 2000-03], 100 3's, 152 blocks).
... AND IN THE NATION
Here's another note that illustrates why Liz Honegger may be the most versatile center in the country ... Honegger is believed to be the only player in NCAA Division-I history to hold both the three-point field goal and blocked shot career records at her school ... a survey of sports information directors around the nation has turned up no other such players as of Friday, Jan. 12.
LEADERS OF THE MAC
The Falcons are at the top of numerous team categories in the latest Mid-American Conference statistics (as of Jan. 12) ... BGSU leads all league schools in scoring defense (53.7), scoring margin (+20.8), field-goal percentage (47.6), FG pct. defense (36.7), three-point FG pct. (40.8), three-point FG pct. defense (28.0), turnover margin (+6.93) and assist/turnover ratio (1.23) ... the Falcons are second in the league in assists (16.67) and three-pointers made (7.67) ... individually, senior Amber Flynn leads the league in field-goal pct., while classmate Ali Mann is third ... Flynn is at 66.3 percent, while Mann is shooting 56.4% from the floor ... senior Liz Honegger is second in the league in three-point pct. (46.8), third in three-pointers made (2.40) and fifth in blocks ... Mann is sixth in scoring (15.7), while junior Kate Achter is fourth in both assists (5.33) and assist/turnover radio (1.70).
UP NEXT
Following the Ohio game, the Falcons will head right back out on the road, leaving Monday for a Tuesday (Jan. 16) game at Miami ... then, the Brown and Orange will play the first of six-straight games against MAC West Division opponents, hosting Central Michigan on Saturday, Jan. 20, in a 1:00 p.m. start at venerable Anderson Arena, 'The House That Roars.'
