On Thursday January 24th at the Redhawk Center, Seattle University women’s basketball team rode a 27-0 game-opening run to a 90-54 win over Chicago State on the back of a 33 point shooting clinic from Australian freshman Courtney Murphy. Courtney broke the Seattle University record for the most points scored in a single game in the Colleges D1 history.
Coach Suzy Barcomb said “Murphy put on a show in the first half, scoring 23 points to ignite the Redhawk attack.” Murphy finished with 33 points on 10-18 shooting from the field, connecting on 5-9 three-pointers, 8-11 free throws plus added a career-high 8 rebounds in her 32 minutes on court. Courtney’s performance was truly outstanding in only her sixth game of her career here.
Murphy’s performance topped that of senior Alexis Montgomery (All-WAC First Team 2017) who scored 31 points against Idaho State on November 10th, 2017.
