Ale posted just one point in the first half, after only playing three minutes due to two early fouls. The 24 second half points is one point shy of the school record for points in the second half, set by Dominique Carter in 2008. Ale was a perfect 6-for-6 from the field, including five 3-pointers, to mark the second time in her career the native of Carson has been perfect from the field in her career.
KhLOK PROVIdES STRONG dEPTh OFF ThE BENch: Freshman Mel Khlok has been a threat off the bench for the Dons this season, including recording her first career double-double Thursday at Pacific. When playing as a reserve, Khlok averages 6.7 points and 3.5 rebounds per outing. Twice this season, against Utah State and at Pacific, the native of Sacramento has scored a dozen points as a reserve. For the season, the guard averages 6.5 points, 4.2 rebounds in 18.4 minutes of action per tilt.
ANTON EARNS cAREER hIGh: Heidi Anton came off the bench against BYU to post a career high 11 points Friday. In nine minutes of action, Anton hit 4-of-5 from the field with three free throws, in-cluding scoring five straight for the Dons. She also added an assist and a steal. Prior to her 11 points, Anton’s previous high was five points.
ALE’S STREAK BROKEN AT 24: Heading into the trip to Hawai’i, Rheina Ale was a perfect 22-for-22 from the free throw line this season and a perfect 36-for-36 dating back to last season. Her missed free throw attempt with 13 seconds remaining against Hawai’i snapped the sophomore’s streak. Cur-rently, Ale leads the WCC and ranks 11th in the NCAA with a .926 (25-for-27) clip from the charity stripe. Earlier this season, Ale’s clutch shooting played a major role in a couple wins. With the Dons up by just two with 1:40 remaining against the Utah State, Ale took the pressure and dissolved it, hitting two free throws to put the Green and Gold up by four. Within the final 40 seconds of the game, the native of Carson sealed the victory for San Francisco hitting four free baskets down the stretch to put the victory out of reach for the Aggies. Last season, as a rookie, Ale led the Dons with a .796 average at the stripe, going 74-for-93.

During the Summer, USF Athletics honors a remarkable past and prepares for the next gen-eration with a major renovation in War Memorial Gym. Among a number of improvements was the first floor replacement done since the arena opened in 1958-59. Along with the new hardwood flooring, the gym is sporting a fresh court design and a new coat of paint from floor to ceiling. The wooden bleachers on the ends of the court were replaced, and new lights were installed.
Upon entering War Memorial Gym, fans will notice a number of other changes, starting with new entrances with to the arena, new retired jerseys hanging above the court, as well as new NCAA and conference championship banners, celebrating the legacy and tradition of USF’s basketball and volleyball programs.
The south lobby of the gym underwent construction as well to create a more permanent con-cessions area.
