Allan, senior from Warwick, N.Y., helped Lynchburg move
into a tie for first place in the ODAC with a trio of wins last
week, including two ODAC triumphs with one coming against
previously ODAC-unbeaten Eastern Mennonite. Allan, who shot
57.1-percent (20-of-35) for the week, opened with 19 points on
6-of-9 shooting and 3-of-4 from deep towards 19 points in LC's
72-53 victory over cross-town rival Randolph. She made all
four shots from the stripe while collecting two rebounds and a pair
of steals. She then hit 7-of-10 overall and 1-of-2 from deep
on the way to 15 points with two boards, three assists and a
blocked shot in a non-conference win over Salem, 87-58. Allan
capped her week with 17 points, three boards, three assists, a
steal and a blocked shot in the Hornets' 70-66 triumph over EMU.
She notched 12 markers in the second half as LC staved away
any EMU comeback attempt. For the season, Allan is fifth in
the ODAC in scoring at 16.0 points per game. She's third in
total points (240) and free throw shooting (84.3%; 43-of-51) and
sixth in three-point prowess (38.0%; 19-of-50).
