St. Bonaventure held a seven-point advantage at the half and built its lead as large
as 10 at the start of the second frame, 38-28, before UMass closed its gap with
points from Dillard and McDerment. The freshmen keyed a 9-2 run that cut the
deficit to 40-37 with nine minutes, 20 seconds to play in the game.
Massachusetts stayed within striking distance of the Bonnies until the home squad
put together a 10-point run which turned its slim 53-48 lead into a 63-48 advantage
in the final minute of play. Free throw shooting supported the streak as the Bonnies
were 8-of-10 from the foul line in that span and went 26-for-32 in the category during the game (81.3 percent).

Pierre-Louis Pours In 33
Kim Pierre-Louis led UMass to its 78-57 victory at Boston University with a careerhigh 33 points. It marked the most scored by a Minutewoman in a single game since
Melissa Gurile had 38 versus Providence on Dec. 11, 1993 and tied her for the fifthhighest total ever recorded by UMass.
Pierre-Louis scored her 33 via a 10-of-15 performance from the floor and 13-of-14 day
at the foul line. Her made free throws total stands as the fifth-most in one game in
program history. It was her first game with 30 or more points at the collegiate level.
A Defensive First In Over Six Years
UMass limited Saint Joseph’s to just 24.6 percent on field goal attempts (16-of-65), the
first time the Minutewomen limited a foe to less than 25.0 percent from the floor since
Brown hit 21.8 percent (12-of-55) of its attempts in a 64-41 Maroon and White victory
on Dec. 7, 2008 - a span of 184 games between the two contests.
Quick Look: Massachusetts 71, La Salle 68
UMass improved to 8-8 overall and 2-2 in Atlantic 10 Conference games with a 71-68
victory over La Salle at the Mullins Center on Thursday, Jan. 15. The Minutewomen
led by as much as 14 points, but had to stave off a rally by the Explorers for the win.
Kim Pierre-Louis dropped in a game-high 24 points and earned her 10th double-double
with 13 rebounds. Cierra Dillard scored 13 points while Rashida Timbilla had a singlegame career-high 17 rebounds.
Amber Dillon’s final point provided the Minutewomen with the 71-68 margin after she
absorbed a foul on the defensive side and hit the second of two free throws with six
seconds to play. Micahya Owens hoisted up a desperation three-pointer from well
beyond the arc looking to tie, but the shot fell short and clanked harmlessly off the
right side of the rim as time expired.
La Salle (10-7, 1-3) put together an 11-point run spanning the halves to cut a 35-21
UMass lead down to 35-32 with 18:19 left in the game. UMass immediately rallied when
the game was back within one possession and used a 7-0 streak that put the lead back
into double-digits at 42-32.
The comfortable gap was short-lived as the Explorers scored nine of the next 11 points
to get back within three, 46-43 after a jumper by Cropper, but Ciara Rosten used one
of her four made field goals to extend the gap back to five with 10:47 to go. However,
the Minutewomen never let La Salle even the contest despite the lead dropping to one
point on two occasions.

University of Massachusetts Women’s Basketball Game Notes
Rarities In The Umass-SJU Series
Dillard Gets Second A-10 ROokie Nod
The 65-47 win at Saint Joseph’s marked a few
rarities in the series between the sides, including
the fewest points allowed to the Hawks (47) since
a 42-33 win for the Minutewomen on Jan. 13, 2005,
which was 11 games prior in the series.
Freshman guard Cierra Dillard earned Atlantic
10 Rookie of the Week on Jan. 12 after she averaged 20.5 points over games against Saint Louis
and Saint Joseph’s. It was Dillard’s second A-10
rookie award of the season.
The victory in Hagan Arena was also the first
for the Minutewomen since Jan. 13, 2005, and
only the third in the history of the series, which
includes 25 games played on Saint Joseph’s campus. The other road victory was on Feb. 14, 1998
when UMass won on the road, 55-46 en route to
an NCAA Tournament berth.
She shot 12-for-23 on field goals (52.2 percent),
including 4-of-8 from three-point land, and went
13-of-18 at the foul line (72.2 percent) combined in
those contests. Dillard has a career high with 23
points against the Billikens before she led UMass
with 18 points at Saint Joseph’s.
The 18-point margin of victory also marked the
largest winning gap for the Minutewomen against
Saint Joseph’s overall.
Pierre-Louis Picked For A-10 Player
of the Week
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner
In the eight team wins this season, Kim PierreLouis leads UMass with 22.6 points over 28.6 minutes averaged per game. She is 71-for-117 from
the floor (60.7 percent) with 76 rebounds (9.5 per

Creating Extra Possessions
UMass forced opponents into 299 turnovers during the opening 19 games of the season for

Minutewomen forced more turnovers on average
was during the 2008-09 season when the Maroon
and White earned 15.8 per game.
Quick Look: UMass 65, St. Joseph’s 47
UMass won at Hagan Arena vs. Saint Joseph’s for
the first time since 2005 when the Minutewomen
earned a 65-47 victory on Saturday, Jan. 10. Cierra
Dillard led the Maroon and White with 18 points
while Rashida Timbilla contributed 17 with nine
rebounds and Kim Pierre-Louis earned a doubledouble on 16 points and 10 boards.
The win at Hagan Arena was the first for the
Minutewomen since 2005 and only the third in
the 56-game series, including a victory earned at
Saint Joseph’s in 1998. The 18-point margin represents the largest UMass victory in the history of
the two teams facing off, which dates back to the
1977-78 season.
UMass pushed its lead into double-digits, 26-16,
with three minutes, 56 seconds to play in the first
half on a 9-0 run. Emily Mital drained a triple to
start the streak before Timbilla put in a layup and
Pierre-Louis had back-to-back makes.
The lead did not fall below seven points the rest
of the way. After Saint Joseph’s cut it to 45-38
with 9:57 remaining in the second stanza, UMass
responded with a 13-4 run to increase the margin
to 58-42 at the 2:54 mark.
Kim Pierre-Louis earned Atlantic 10 Player of
the Week honors on Monday, as announced
by the conference office. The award marks the
first such for Pierre-Louis. She earned the laurel after the Ottawa, Ontario, native recorded a
33-point, 14-rebound performance in the 78-57 win
at Boston University on Sunday, Dec. 28.
Pierre-Louis scored her 33 via a 10-for-15 day from
the floor and 13-of-14 performance at the foul line.
The points total is tied for fifth in program history
for most in one game and went as the highest single-game total by a Minutewoman since Melissa
Gurile had 38 versus Providence on Dec. 11, 1993.
The last Minutewoman to earn A-10 Player of the
Week was Jasmine Watson on Nov. 12, 2012.
Quick Look: UMass 78, Boston U. 57
Kim Pierre-Louis scored a career-high 33 points
and Kymber Hill added a personal-best-tying 14
more as UMass raced by Boston University, 78-57
on Sunday, Dec. 28.
Pierre-Louis’ game ranks tied for fifth in points
scored in one contest at UMass and it is the
most tallied since Melissa Gurile had 38 against
Providence on Dec. 11, 1993. Pierre-Louis also put
in the fifth-most free throws in one game (13) and
had a double-double as she also led both sides
with 14 rebounds, a season high.
Massachusetts used its shooting performance to
turn an early 11-6 hole into a 17-point lead with
three minutes, 26 seconds to play in the first half,
supported by Pierre-Louis’ 15 points in only 10
minutes on the floor during the frame. The Ottawa,
Ontario, native was 5-for-6 from the floor and 5-of6 on free throws while the Minutewomen shot 58.6
percent on field goals as a team in the frame.
However, UMass did not score after Amber
Dillon’s layup with 3:26 left in the first. The
Terriers used the drought to put up the final five
points of the frame and closed within 44-27 at
the break. Massachusetts responded with an
8-2 surge during the start of the second half and
Boston University was unable to close the gap
below 16 points during the rest of the game.

Head Coach SHARON DAWLEY
Fifth Season At UMass // 21st Season As Head Coach Overall // St. Anselm ‘83
Sharon Dawley was named as the 10th head
coach in the history of the University of
Massachusetts women’s basketball program
on April 6, 2010, and begins her fifth season
at the helm for the Minutewomen in 2014-15.
demic and/or athletic accolades. She coached a player of the year, defensive player of the year, rookie of the year, two-time scholar-athlete and
two-time most outstanding player at the America East Tournament. Under
Dawley’s direction, the Catamounts earned six all-conference picks, four
all-rookie nods and two all-academic team honors.
In her first season in Amherst, Dawley coached
her squad to one of the best three point shooting percentages in the country, highlighted by
Cerie Mosgrove, who led the nation with 49.7
percent clip from beyond the arc. Mosgrove, one of several Minutewomen
who enjoyed career years under Dawley’s guidance in 2010-11, went on
to win the National Women’s Three-Point Shooting Championship at the
men’s Final Four in Houston, Texas.
In 2007-08, Dawley guided Vermont to one of its best seasons in the program’s existence. The Catamounts went 24-9 overall, recording the fourth
most wins all-time, and were the America East runners-up during the
regular season with a 13-3 league mark.
UVM also earned its second trip to the WNIT in school history and the first
postseason appearance in Dawley’s tenure in 2007-08. The Catamounts
drew regional rival Dartmouth in the first round and Dawley faced her former mentor Chris Wielgus on the opposing sideline. Vermont defeated the
Big Green for the team’s third postseason victory all-time and advanced to
the second round of the WNIT for the second time in the program’s annals.
Simultaneously, Dawley and her staff helped 2013 graduate Jasmine
Watson develop into one of the most successful players in program history. Watson eclipsed 1,000 career points during the first game of her
senior season to become the 19th member of the UMass women’s basketball 1,000-point club while she capped her
career among the top-20 all-time in more than
Sharon Dawley’s

Year
Program
Position
Dawley came to UMass after a highly successful tenure with the Catamounts that included
two consecutive America East Championships
(2008-09 and 2009-10) and three straight postseason berths. In seven seasons at Vermont,
Dawley posted a mark of 128-86 (.598) and
holds a career record of 287-245 (.539) through
20 seasons as a head coach. She became
the winningest coach in Vermont women’s
basketball history when the Catamounts upset
No. 7-seed Wisconsin in the opening round of
the NCAA Tournament on March 21, 2010, the
program’s first NCAA tournament victory.
Under Dawley’s guidance, Vermont earned
an automatic NCAA Tournament berth as a
No. 10 seed after successfully defending its
America East Tournament title in 2009-10. The
Catamounts defeated top-seeded and No.
21-ranked Hartford in the conference championship game, 55-50. UVM posted a record of
27-7 that season, the third-highest wins total
for the program all-time, and led the nation
with 18 road victories.
Dawley earned her 100th career win at Vermont
with a 66-56 victory over Hartford in the semifinals of the 2009 America East Championship
as UVM went on to capture its first conference title since 2000. The Catamounts made
their first NCAA Tournament appearance in
nine years where the squad fell to eventual
national champion Connecticut.

On Dawley’s watch, May Kotsopoulos earned the America East
Women’s Basketball Scholar-Athlete honor twice heading into the
2009-10 season. Three of Dawley’s players at Vermont were named to
the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District I Women’s Basketball
First Team and Kotsopoulos became the third player in school history to be tabbed an ESPN The Magazine Academic All-American in
2010. Amy Rosenkrantz `09 and Kotsopoulos were candidates for the
Lowe’s Senior CLASS Women’s Basketball Award in back-to-back
years, as well.
In 2003-04, Dawley’s first year at Vermont, the Catamounts ranked
10th out of the top 25 Division I teams selected to the Women’s
Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) Academic Top 25 Team
Honor Roll for Division I. The award recognizes the nation’s highest
team grade point averages for that season.
Prior to arriving at Vermont, Dawley spent 10 years as a member of
the women’s basketball staff at Dartmouth College. She served as an

Timbilla Reaches 500 Rebounds
The Same Starting Five
Rashida Timbilla surpassed 500 career rebounds at
Massachusetts during the contest against Harvard.
Timbilla is up to 638 as a Minutewoman 19 games
into her junior season. She had 241 as a freshman and
207 during her sophomore season. Currently, Timbilla
averages the second-most rebounds in the conference at 10.0 boards per game as a junior and 8.4 per
game for her career.
UMass used the same starting five in each of its 16
games so far in 2014-15. Leah McDerment serves
as the point guard, Cierra Dillard is the shooting
guard, Rashida Timbilla holds down the No. 3 spot
as a combo guard/forward, Kim Pierre-Louis start at
forward (No. 4) and Kymber Hill is the center.
If she continues to average 8.0 rebounds per game
over the remainder of her career, Timbilla projects
to finish as one of only three Minutewomen ever to
earn at least 900 career rebounds alongside Jennifer
Butler (1,328; 1999-2003) and Octavia Thomas (903;
1992-96).
Team-Wide Accuracy
UMass ranks fourth in the Atlantic 10 through 19
games with its .414 field goal percentage as a team.
Individually, five Minutewomen with a minimum of 20
shots attempted have connected on at least 42.0 percent of their tries, led by Kim Pierre-Louis’ 53.5 conversion rate (129-of-241), ahead of Rashida Timbilla’s
(65-of-146) 44.5 percent rate. Three Minutewomen
are bunched near 42.0 percent in Amber Dillon (42.7;
35-of-82), Kymber Hill (42.5; 34-of-80) and Maggie
Mulligan (42.3; 11-of-26).
The squad has shot above 42.0 percent as a group
in nine of 19 games, including seven of the eight
victories.
UMass is the only Atlantic 10 Conference team to use
the same starting five in each game this season. By
comparison, last season the Minutewomen used 10
different starting lineups through 19 games played.
Sure-Handed With The Glass
UMass women’s basketball limits opponents to 35.9
rebounds per game, the fourth-fewest allowed in the
Atlantic 10 Conference as of contests on Wednesday,
Jan. 21. Rashida Timbilla spearheads the boarding
efforts with a team-high 10.0 grabbed per game, good
for second individually among A-10 competitors. Kim
Pierre-Louis is second among Minutewomen and
ninth in the league with 6.9 on average.
Massachusetts limited foes to fewer than 32 boards
during five games so far this season, including most
recently when the squad held Boston University to 31
on Dec. 28. The fewest allowed during this year was
just 23 to American in a 72-61 win on Dec. 6. The last
time UMass limited a team to 23 or fewer boards was
Kent State (23) on Nov. 10, 2012 - a span of 70 games
between each instance.
KPL Eclipses 500 Field Goal Tries
Hand It Over
Rashida Timbilla had seven steals at Central
Michigan in UMass’ near-upset of the preseason
MAC favorites on Nov. 16. Her seven steals were two
better than her previous best.
It tied Timbilla for the fifth-most on the single game
record listing for steals. Jennifer Butler set the high
mark with 10 against Charlotte on Nov. 17, 2000.
Timbilla has 122 steals in 76 games (1.6 spg). She is
12th all-time at UMass in the category and eight from
passing Sakera Young (129; 2005-09) for 11th. Timbilla
ranks second in the Atlantic 10 Conference for steals
per game with 2.3 in each contest on average, 0.2
behind conference leader Jasmine Alston (La Salle).
Kim Pierre-Louis surpassed 500 career field goal
attempts with the Minutewomen during her 8-for-12
afternoon from the floor at North Texas. Entering
play against St. Bonaventure, Pierre-Louis has taken
700 shots at UMass and made 347 for a .496 career
percentage, the seventh-highest in UMass history.
Double Up On Points & Rebounds
Rashida Timbilla leads all active Minutewomen with
13 double-doubles, including three during the 2014-15
season. She also had seven as a freshman (2012-13)
and followed up with three more during her sophomore campaign (2013-14).
Kim Pierre-Louis is next with 10 earned during her
career, including five on the current year. Kymber
Hill joined the duo with her first double-double on
10 points and as many rebounds at North Texas on
Nov. 21.

University of Massachusetts Women’s Basketball Game Notes
Clutch In Crunch TIme
The Buddy System Works
Cierra Dillard spearheaded the UMass win over
American when she scored 15 of her single-game
then-career-high 18 points during the second half.
Dillard’s only made shot of the first half was a threepointer that put UMass up, 26-24 with two seconds
left in the stanza. She was 5-of-10 from the floor and
5-for-6 at the foul line during the second half, in which
she played 17 minutes.
In the eight victories this season, UMass averages
15.4 assists per game on 24.6 made field goals in each
contest. That gives the squad a dish on 62.6 percent
of field goals made on average during each win.
However, during the 11 losses, the Minutewomen only
distribute 11.0 assists on 20.0 shots converted (55.0
percent).
She upped her second-half success in the win over
Holy Cross when she poured in 17 of her career-high
21 points and went 6-for-8 from the floor to lead UMass
to its comeback win over the Crusaders.
Boarding With The BEst Of Them
Dillard added another strong second half performance
in the win at Saint Joseph’s when she scored 11 of her
18 points after the break.
Dillard doubles her scoring output from the first half to
the second through 19 games. She averages 3.5 points
during the first half and scores 7.0 after the break.
Quick Look: UMass 71, American 61
UMass topped American, 71-61 during a Dec. 6 game.
Kim Pierre-Louis paced the team with 22 points in 23
minutes as she went 10-for-17 from the floor and 2-2
at the line. Pierre-Louis also led all players with 11
rebounds for her first double-double of the year and
helped UMass own a 40-23 advantage on the boards.
Freshman Cierra Dillard added a career-best 18
points. She was 6-of-12 on field goals with a 5-for-6
afternoon at the charity stripe.
After the UMass lead dipped to one point following a
Jen Dumiak layup with 16 minutes, 13 second left to
play, Massachusetts put together a 9-0 run to earn
its first double-digit advantage, 43-33. Dillard spearheaded the stretch with seven of the points, including
an and-one play to cap the streak.
Dumiak ended the UMass run with another layup,
but the Minutewomen responded with a Pierre-Louis
bucket and Alyx Stiff three-pointer from the left wing
to push the advantage to 50-35 at the 10:22 mark.
Massachusetts did not see its lead slip below nine
points during the remainder of the play.
A First For Kymber Hill
Kymber Hill recorded her first collegiate double-double on 10 points and as many rebounds against North
Texas. Hill was 4-for-7 from the floor 2-of-4 at the foul
line while she split her 10 boards evenly between the
offensive and defensive ends of the court.
Yes, You Can Call it A Comeback
UMass defeated UCF, 67-62 despite trailing by as much
as 11 in the second half. UMass erased the deficit
through a 13-point game-ending streak that turned a
62-54 deficit into the 67-62 final score.
The Minutewomen also trailed by double-digits to
North Texas during the first half of an eventual 56-46
victory. UMass was down 18-6 with 7:28 to play in the
opening half, but cut the margin to 23-21 at the break
and outscored North Texas, 35-23 during the second
half for a 56-46 victory.
With an appearance vs. St. Bonaventure on Feb. 8,
2014, Rashida Timbilla played in her 50th game with
at UMass, the minimum required to be eligible for the
program’s top-20 for rebounding average. Timbilla
averages 8.4 boards per appearance (638), the fourthhighest average in program history ahead of Octavia
Thomas (7.9; 1992-96).
Timbilla led the Minutewomen in rebounding during
both of her completed collegiate campaigns. She had
241 over 29 games as a freshman and provided 207 in
28 appearances during 2013-14.
The Ottawa, Ontario, native has 190 rebounds through
19 games as a junior for an average of 10.0 per contest,
the second-highest per game average in the A-10.
Quick Look: UMass 67, C. Florida 62
UMass used a 13-point game-ending scoring streak
to turn an eight point deficit into a 67-62 win over UCF
at the Mullins Center on Sunday, Nov. 30. Kim PierreLouis led the squad with a season-best 22 points while
she chipped in four rebounds, three assists and three
steals to the team effort.
UMass went on its game-changing scoring streak
after the Knights hit 10 of their opening 17 field goals
in the second half (58.8 percent) to build their lead as
large as 11 points in the frame. Free throw shooting
spearheaded the final push by the Minutewomen.
After the squad started just 3-of-10 at the foul line,
UMass hit nine of its last 10 takes to turn the deficit
around.
After they had trailed for all but 22 seconds of the final
half, Rashida Timbilla gave the Minutewomen the
lead back with a pair of made free throws at the 1:18
mark after she stole possession from Zykira Lewis and
forced a foul at the other end.
Pierre-Louis added a jumper as the shot clock expired
with 19 seconds left in the game to extend the advantage to 65-62. Massachusetts forced the Knights into
their sixth consecutive missed shot during the next
possession when Andrea Hines’ three-pointer fell to
the left of the rim and rolled out of bounds. Pierre-Louis
iced the game with two more from the charity stripe.
It’s A Marathon, Not A Sprint
Rashida Timbilla averages 34.7 minutes played per
game, tops among all Minutewomen by more than six
minutes. The next-most played on average is Cierra
Dillard’s 28.3 minutes in each contest.
Timbilla ranks fourth in the conference for minutes
played per game. She leads all forwards in the A-10
Conference’s top-10 for minutes played ahead of
Fordham’s Samantha Clark (31.9; ninth) and Sarah
Fairbanks (Saint Joseph’s; 31.8; 10th).

The Hometown Girl
Junior guard Victoria Stewart is a native of
Amherst, Mass., and played scholastically at
nearby Amherst-Pelham High School, less than
two miles away from the Mullins Center.
Stewart, who walked on to the team as a freshman
in 2012-13, earned a scholarship for her hard work,
dedication and positive attitude before her sophomore year. For her career, she has appeared in 28
games with the Minutewomen.
There’s No Place Like Home
UMass has won five times at home this season
with victories over Maine, 69-60, Central Florida,
67-62, American, 71-61, Holy Cross, 72-61 and La
Salle, 71-68.
Kim Pierre-Louis averaged 22.8 points per game in
those contests, followed by Cierra Dillard’s 11.8.

during the middle of the second half when UMass
went on a 12-0 run to stake itself to a 21-13 lead.
Maine was unable to pull closed than within eight

rebounds while Kymber Hill added 10 points (3-4
FGs, 4-6 FTs) and a career-best eight rebounds.

three nods to the two-per-year academic listing in
four semesters eligible for it.
Mital Good From Afar
Nineteen games into her final year, Emily Mital
has made 136 career three-pointers for the
Maroon and White, the fifth-most in the history
of the program. She would need to connect on 36
more to pass Cerie Mosgrove (171; 2007-2011) for
fourth all-time.
Her junior season success earned her the spot
on UMass’ all-time leaderboard for made threepointers as she went 52-for-142 (36.6 percent)
during the campaign. As a sophomore in 2012-13,
Mital hit 48 of her 151 tries from long distance (31.8
percent) after she finished 8-of-39 in the category
as a freshman (20.5 percent).
She is also seventh all-time in three-point field
goal attempts (406) while her 52 threes made over
the course of the 2013-14 season put her ninth on

University of Massachusetts Women’s Basketball Game Notes
Inside Prescence Is Paramount
Dillard Scoring In Bunches
During the eight victories, Kim Pierre-Louis and
Kymber Hill have dominated in the paint for the
Minutewomen. As a result, UMass owns a 268-170
edge in scoring within the paint, a 33.5-to-21.3 per
game margin, during those games.
Nineteen games into her UMass career, Cierra
Dillard averages 10.5 points per contest and is currently the second-highest scoring Minutewoman.
The Minutewomen won the battle of the paint 12
times this year, including in all eight victories.
Deuces Wild
Kim Pierre-Louis has six of the eight 20-point
games secured by Minutewomen during the current season, including a 33-point effort against
Boston University. Cierra Dillard has the other
two, including when she scored a career-high 23
versus the Billikens.
Pierre-Louis tallied 22 points when UMass defeated UCF, 67-62, through a 13-point game-ending
run. Pierre-Louis’ 22 scored were the most by a
Minutewoman this season at the time and the
fifth game the senior provided at least 20 points
in her career.
Pierre-Louis added another 22-point effort to help
UMass secure its 71-61 victory over American on
Saturday, Dec. 6. She surpassed this total with a
then-career-high 27 for the Minutewomen in their
72-61 win over Holy Cross on Sunday, Dec. 14, and
did so again at Boston University two weeks later
when she dropped 33 on the Terriers. She has
since added two more with 26 against Saint Louis
and 24 versus La Salle.
All six of her 20-point games this season occurred
during the most recent 14 contests.
Dillard showed a penchant for scoring in bunches
at critical junctures versus CMU and North Texas.
She netted nine points, an assist and a steal
during the final four minutes, 45 seconds as the
Minutewomen closed a 16-point deficit to within
one basket of the win at CMU. She also had all
four of her points versus North Texas during the
12-2 game-defining run UMass used to win the
contest late.
She added 16 points during the pivotal second half
vs. American after UMass entered the break only
up by two and had 17 more in the second frame
when the Minutewomen outscored Holy Cross by
12 points in the final half to earn a 72-61 win.
Accuracy & Boards A Must
Unsurprisingly, UMass secured wins in seven
of the nine contests the Minutewomen earned
a higher shooting percentage than their foes.
They are 1-9 when the opposition shoots better.
Simultaneously, UMass is 7-2 when outrebounding
foes and 1-9 when the squad is out-rebounded.
Defense Improved From 2013-14
UMass also hit more than 50 percent of its attempts
in the 78-57 win at Boston University. The squad
went 28-for-55 against the Terriers (50.9 percent).

Timbilla’s Near Triple-Double
Rashida Timbilla came close to earning a tripledouble as she had nine rebounds, eight points and
eight assists in the win over American (Dec. 6). Her
assists total reset her single-game career-high.
The last Minutewoman to record a triple-double
was Jennifer Butler, who accomplished the feat
against Charlotte on Nov. 17, 2000 with 19 points,
11 rebounds and 10 steals.

Keep ‘Em Under 70 Points
The Canadian Connection
In each of the eight victories, the Minutewomen have
not allowed more than 69 points to the opposition.
However, when foes score at least 70 points the
Minutewomen are 0-5 this season.
UMass has had eight Canadian players compete for
the program in the history of the squad including Kim
Pierre-Louis and Rashida Timbilla currently.
Helping Others Help Themselves
Rashida Timbilla is the team’s leader in assists
through 19 games of the 2014-15 season after she
had a UMass-best 86 in 28 games as a sophomore
(3.1 per game).
In 2014-15, Timbilla owns 3.9 helpers per game (74),
which is eighth in the Atlantic 10. Timbilla is the active
leader among Minutewomen in the category with 221
through 76 career games.
The Defensive Rebounding Wizard
Nineteen games into her junior year, Rashida Timbilla
leads the A-10 in defensive rebounds (158) and defensive boards per game (8.3), where she ranked seventh
among all NCAA Division I competitors through the
latest statistics update on Wednesday, Jan. 28.
Timbilla is up to 443 defensive rebounds for her
UMass career entering play against St. Bonaventure,
an average of 5.8 per game and the ninth-most in
program history behind former teammate Jasmine
Watson’s (2009-13) 466 in eighth. Her per-game
average is second to only Jennifer Butler’s 6.9 from
1999-2003. Timbilla had 154 defensive rebounds as a
sophomore (5.5 per game) and 131 during her freshman year (4.5 on average).
Hi, My Name Is...
The Minutewomen played three consecutive firsttime opponents during 2014-15 with games against
North Texas, Florida State and UCF. UMass defeated
North Texas, 56-46 before the squad fell to the
Seminoles, 73-47. Massachusetts rebounded with a

University of Massachusetts Women’s Basketball Box Scores And Recaps
game 1: Western Michigan 63, UMass 41
game 3: UMass 68, Maine 60
Kim Pierre-Louis started her senior year with a 16-point, eight-rebound effort, but it was not enough in a
63-41 loss at Western Michigan. Pierre-Louis was 8-of-15 from the floor and earned seven of her boards
on the defensive glass. The Minutewomen started strong with seven consecutive points to open the game,
but the Broncos took control with a 21-0 run covering eight minutes, 11 seconds of game action during the
first half. The response turned the home side’s 17-9 deficit into a 30-17 lead with 1:26 left in the first half. The
Minutewomen trailed by 13 at the half and, after a strong WMU start to the second, were unable to get within
18 the remainder of the way.
Massachusetts women’s basketball used balanced scoring to defeat Maine, 68-60, in the home-opener for
UMass. Nine Minutewomen recorded points, led by Kim Pierre-Louis’ 19, as the squad shot 57.1 percent from
the floor. The team’s shooting percentage was its best since UMass shot 61.1 percent (33-54) versus Kent State
on Nov. 10, 2012 - a span of 61 games between outings. The Maroon and White went ahead for good during
the middle of the second half when the Minutewomen went on a 12-0 run to stake themselves to a 21-13 lead.
Maine was unable to pull closed than within eight the rest of the way as UMass combined its team offense
with a feisty defense that created 17 turnovers to secure the win.

The freshman class combined for 30 points, led by Cierra Dillard’s 16, but Central Michigan squeaked out a
72-70 victory over UMass. Dillard led UMass in scoring while Rashida Timbilla provided 14 points, 12 rebounds,
seven steals and five assists. The game was decided by a 17-2 Chippewas run during the later half of the
second stanza that turned a one-point CMU advantage into a 64-48 margin. Despite the deficit, UMass clawed

minutes, the freshman from Rochester, New York, provided UMass with nine points on a pair of field goals and
a 4-of-4 stretch at the line. Leah McDerment nailed a late trey to reach the final score with two seconds to play.
Kymber Hill recorded her first collegiate double-double and Kim Pierre-Louis scored 16 of her 18 points during
the second half when UMass came back for a 56-46 win at North Texas. The Minutewomen trailed by as many
as 12 points during in the first but recovered during the second frame for the double-digit win. Pierre-Louis
scored the first 14 UMass points of the second half as she went 7-of-7 from the floor while Texas native Emily
Mital provided back-to-back treys and finished with nine points and a team-best three assists on the night.
UMass closed the game on a 12-2 run spanning the final four minutes, 19 seconds of action to seal the win.
Cierra Dillard started the streak with an and-one play while back-to-back layups from Hill iced the contest.

University of Massachusetts Women’s Basketball Box Scores And Recaps
game 5: [RV/RV] FLorida State 73, UMass 47 game 7: Harvard 75, UMass 62
Sun., Nov. 23, 2014 // The Super Pit; Denton, Texas
Wed., Dec. 3, 2014 // Mullins Center; Amherst, Mass.
Rashida Timbilla provided a game-high 15 points for UMass, but the Minutewomen were unable to get by
Florida State in a 73-47 loss. Cierra Dillard added six points, four steals, two assists and a pair of rebounds as
UMass closed played at North Texas’ Hospitality Hill Challenge. The Seminoles scored eight straight to start
the game but UMass then kept within striking distance early on the strength of forced turnovers and scoring
in the paint by Timbilla, who had six straight for UMass, with the final of those closing the gap to 17-10 with
12:05 left in the first. FSU separated from UMass with a 12-3 streak ending with 77 seconds left in the first
half, which gave the squad a 34-16 lead the Minutewomen were unable to drop below 17 the rest of the way.
Early foul and turnover troubles hindered UMass as the Minutewomen fell to the Harvard Crimson, 75-62. Kim
Pierre-Louis led the way in scoring for the Minutewomen - one of three UMass players to reach double figures - as she finished the game with 19 points. Despite having to contend with Harvard’s three-point accuracy,
UMass trailed by just one, 33-32, heading into halftime. The Crimson jumped out to a 43-35 lead early in the second half, supported by a 10-3 run which included back-to-back triples from Curtis. An Emily Mital three-pointer
midway through the stanza brought the Minutewomen as close as they would come to erasing the deficit the
rest of the way, 53-48, but Harvard answered with a 7-2 streak after to push its lead back into double-digits.

game 6: UMass 67, Central Florida 62
game 8: UMass 71, American 61
UMass used a 13-point game-ending scoring streak to turn an eight point deficit into a 67-62 win over UCF. The
win improved UMass to 3-3 overall and gave the Minutewomen their second victory at home in as many chances. Kim Pierre-Louis led the squad with a season-best 22 points while she chipped in four rebounds, three
assists and three steals to the team effort. After they had trailed for all but 22 seconds of the final half, Rashida
Timbilla gave the Minutewomen the lead back with a pair of made free throws at the 1:18 mark after she
stole possession from Lewis and forced a foul at the other end. Pierre-Louis added a bucket as time expired
on the shot clock with 19 seconds left to play and iced the game with a pair of free throws to reach the final.
Kim Pierre-Louis and Cierra Dillard combined to score 40 points as UMass defeated American, 71-61. PierreLouis had 22 while Dillard provided 18, including 15 points during the pivotal second half. UMass entered the
stanza with a 26-24 lead thanks to a late three-pointer by Dillard. After the lead dipped to one point following a
Jen Dumiak layup with 16 minutes, 13 second left to play, UMass put together a 9-0 run to earn its first doubledigit advantage, 43-33. Dillard spearheaded the stretch with seven points. Dumiak ended the run with another
layup, but UMass responded with a Pierre-Louis bucket and Alyx Stiff three-pointer to push the advantage to
50-35 at the 10:22 mark. UMass did not see its lead slip below nine points the remainder of the play.

University of Massachusetts Women’s Basketball Box Scores And Recaps
game 9: UMass 72, Holy Cross 61
game 11: Ohio 59, UMass 52
Kim Pierre-Louis scored a career-best 27 points and Cierra Dillard chipped in a personal-high 21, including 17
scored in the pivotal second half, when UMass defeated Holy Cross, 72-61. The Minutewomen trailed at the
break, 30-29, before Dillard and Pierre-Louis rallied the squad in the second half, when the duo combined for
31 points. Up three nearly halfway through the second, Dillard drained a three, Pierre-Louis connected on a
layup and Dillard added a bucket plus one at the charity stripe to cap an 8-1 run that pushed the lead to 50-40
with 10:34 to play. The lead did not diminish to less than five points the rest of the way as Massachusetts used
a 40-18 advantage in scoring in the paint to keep Holy Cross from a rally.
UMass cut a 16-point second half deficit down to four but was unable to complete the rally against Ohio as the
squad fell, 59-52. Holiday & Hoops All-Classic Team selection Rashida Timbilla earned her second consecutive double-double via 12 rebounds and 10 points while Kim Pierre-Louis led UMass in scoring with 12. After
the Bobcats opened up their 16-point advantage only 62 seconds into the second half, UMass chipped away
at the margin into the last minute of play. The Minutewomen climbed all the way back to within four points,
56-52, following a Cierra Dillard three-pointer with eight ticks on the clock, but UMass was unable to snag the
ensuing Bobcats inbounds pass and Ohio used free throws to secure the contest.

game 12: UMass 78, Boston University 57
Fri., Dec. 19, 2014 // GSU Sports Arena; Atlanta, Ga.
Sunday., Dec. 28, 2014 // Case Gymnasium; Boston, Mass.
UMass nearly overcame multiple 11-point deficits at Georgia State, but fell to the Panthers, 71-66 in the final
minute of play. Kim Pierre-Louis had a team-high 17 points while Rashida Timbilla earned a double-double
on 12 points and a career-high-tying 15 boards. Down 67-66 with 27 seconds left after Timbilla connected on a
layup while being fouled, UMass was unable to score again. Timbilla’s free throw clanked off of the iron and
the ball found its way to Ciara Rosten, but Rosten was called for traveling as she fought for a shot. UMass put
Makaeba Ponder on the line, where she sank both attempts. UMass looked to Emily Mital for a potential gametying three-pointer, but Amber Dillon’s pass was stopped en-route with four seconds to play by Kayla Nolan.
Kim Pierre-Louis led the charge with a career-best 33 points and UMass routed BU on the road, 78-57. PierreLouis’ scoring total marked the most for a Minutewoman since Melissa Gurile had 38 vs. Providence on Dec. 11,
1993. Up 29-23, UMass added a 13-4 run to balloon the advantage to 42-27. Emily Mital was crucial to the streak
with a layup and 3-pointer while Kymber Hill added two buckets and Ciara Rosten closed the streak with layup
of her own. UMass did not score after Amber Dillon’s layup with 3:26 left in the half. BU used the drought to put
up the final five points of the frame and closed within 44-27 at the break. UMass responded with an 8-2 surge
during the start of the half and BU was unable to close the gap below 16 points during the rest of the game.

University of Massachusetts Women’s Basketball Box Scores And Recaps
Game 13: St. Bonaventure 65, UMass 53
game 15: UMass 65, Saint Joseph’s 47
UMass fell in its first A-10 game of the year, 65-53 at St. Bonaventure. The Minutewomen were within five
points, 53-48, during the later stages of the second half, but a 10-point run by the Bonnies that stretched into
the final minute of play put the comeback out of reach. St. Bonaventure used an on-target day at the foul line to
separate itself from the Minutewomen as the home side went 26-for-32 in the category (81.3 percent), including
11 made during the pivotal game-deciding scoring streak. Cierra Dillard led UMass with 14 points and four
assists and tied a career high with four steals, the third time she accomplished the feat. Rashida Timbilla
added 10 points and eight boards while Leah McDerment scored 10 more, her first game in double figures.
Cierra Dillard’s 18 points, including 11 in the second half, led UMass to its third win in program history at Saint
Joseph’s Hagan Arena, 65-47. In additiona to Dillard’s strong performance, Rashida Timbilla added 17 points
and nine rebounds while Kim Pierre-Louis added her ninth career double-double via 16 points and 10 boards.
Leading by seven at 45-38 with nine minutes, 57 second to play, UMass used a 13-4 run to grow its lead to
58-42 at the 2:54 mark. Dillard and fellow freshman Leah McDerment spearheaded the streak with 10 points
combined between the duo of starting guards, including an 8-for-8 streak at the foul line in the span. Dillard and
McDerment earned 14 of the final 20 UMass points as the Minutewomen held off Saint Joseph’s rally attempt.

game 14: Saint Louis 75, UMass 67
game 16: UMass 71, La Salle 68
Massachusetts erased a 14-point deficit and pulled in front midway through the second half, but could not
keep pace with Saint Louis down the stretch in a 75-67 loss. Kim Pierre-Louis and Cierra Dillard scored 49
points combined on 26 from Pierre-Louis and 23 more by Dillard, including 18 from the freshman in the second
half. UMass used a 12-2 run to pull in front, 43-42 after a Pierre-Louis free throw with 12 minutes, 25 seconds
left to go. Dillard and Emily Mital combined for the other 11 points during the streak, but Saint Louis notched a
10-2 run only minutes later to push ahead for good. Jenny Vliet hit a pair of Saint Louis’ nine three-pointers to
bookend the stretch while Sadie Stipanovich drained two jump shots in between.
UMass withstood a furious rally by La Salle and edged the Explorers, 71-68 to improve to 8-8 overall and 2-2
in Atlantic 10 games. Kim Pierre-Louis led all scorers with 24 points and had her 10th double-double with 13
rebounds. Rashida Timbilla set a personal best with 17 rebounds while Cierra Dillard chipped in 13 points.
The Minutewomen led by as much as 14 points during the first half, but La Salle cut that advantage down to
one point on two occasions in the second half, lastly with six minutes, 45 seconds to play. However, UMass
did not allow La Salle back in front as balanced scoring across five Minutewomen - led by four points apiece
from Dillard, Amber Dillon and Pierre-Louis - secured the victory.

University of Massachusetts Women’s Basketball Box Scores And Recaps
Game 17: George Washington 69, UMass 54 Game 19: Richmond 64, UMass 44
Sun., Jan. 18, 2015 // Mullins Center; Amherst, Mass.
Sat., Jan. 24, 2015 // Robins Center; Richmond, Va.
UMass was unable to rebound from a slow start against league-leading George Washington during a 69-54
loss. The Minutewomen found themselves down 18 points, 24-6 halfway through the opening stanza, but rallied back within eight points, 34-26 with 30 seconds left in the first. GW increased its lead to 10 at the break
and used a 7-2 run at the start of the second to go up 43-28. Massachusetts was unable to get back within 10
during the remainder of play. Kim Pierre-Louis led UMass with 15 points while Kymber Hill chipped in 10 more.
Rashida Timbilla grabbed 11 boards against the most successful rebounding team in the conference. It was
her third game with at least 10 during conference play and eighth in double-digits during the current season.
UMass started strong at Richmond but turnovers and off-target shots led to a 64-44 loss to the Spiders. Cierra
Dillard and Amber Dillon led the Minutewomen with nine points each, but UMass gave the ball away 22 times,
which resulted directly to 22 Richmond points. The Minutewomen earned a 13-10 lead as they hit six of their
first 14 field goal tries, but Richmond’s full-court press interrupted UMass’ offensive flow and resulted in a
six-point Richmond run. Kim Pierre-Louis stopped the streak with two at the foul line, but turnovers limited the
Minutewomen while the Spiders expanded their advantage to 11 at 26-15 through an extended 16-2 run. The
Spiders continued to hit over the course of the game and Massachusetts was unable to respond.

Women’s hoops was unable to keep pace with a hot-shooting Fordham squad in the first half as the
Minutewomen fell, 65-42. Fordham opened the game 7-for-10 from the floor for a 20-6 lead. The Rams increased
their lead to 40-17 at the break before UMass adjusted its defense in the second half to cut the deficit to 13
through an 11-point run. Down 52-28, Kim Pierre-Louis scored twice on layups, Emily Mital and Victoria
Stewart connected from long distance and Amber Dillon made the back end of two foul shots to bring UMass
within 52-39 at the 7:29 mark. However, Fordham found its shooting groove during an 11-point run that spanned
the next 6:29 of game action, which silenced the comeback effort by the Minutewomen.
