Inside the numbers: Hudson had a great week for Southern Vermont as she led the team in the points column during two of the Mountaineers’ three games. She averaged 10.3 points per contest on a 75 percent clip from field goal range, and the sophomore added five rebounds per game. Hudson went 6-6 from the floor against Elms on Thursday to register a season-best 13 points, and she followed that with a team-best 10 points against New England College on Saturday for her second game in double figures this year. Additionally, she tied her season-high mark of six rebounds on both Thursday and Saturday.
What Coach Gowan is saying: “I am so proud of Brenna’s growing confidence. She shoots at such a high percentage and is so consistent. Now she is finally stepping up and becoming a consistent scoring threat inside. Her work with Coach Lauren every day is paying off.”
