Wittenberg senior forward Jade Simpson guided the Tigers to a 2-0 week with wins over Otterbein (65-58 OT) and Anderson (IN) (89-65). Against the Cardinals, the senior recorded five points, eight rebounds and two steals. Simpson followed with a career-high 23-point, 20-rebound performance, to go along with two assists and one block against the Ravens. The forward’s 20 rebounds rank third in program history and make her just the fourth Tiger player to reach 20 rebounds in a game.
