Statistical leaders - holiday edition

Assist leader Keira Robinson
The state's Division I leaders in the Triple Crown stats (points-rebounds-assists) as we head into post-Christmas break action:

Scoring

1. Robyn Parks, VCU                                   11   251   22.8
   - Atlantic 10's leading scorer, 14th in Division I. Is shooting 59.4 percent from the field over her last six games. For the season, Parks' overall average efficiency is 25.2, 5th in Division I.

2. Uju Ugoka, Virginia Tech                         11   216   19.6
   - Tech's leading scorer in eight straight games and has posted double-doubles in six straight and eight of her last nine.

3. Taylor Brown, George Mason                  11   205   18.6
   - Highly anticipated Georgetown transfer also leads the Patriots in assists (5.3), steals (1.5), three-pointers made (17, tied with Sandra Ngoie), free throw percentage (82.0) and (gulp) fouling out (3). No one's perfect, right?

4. Malia Tate-DeFreitas, Hampton             12   217   18.1
   - High-scoring freshman picking up where she left off at Pennsylvania's Steel-High, where she finished as the second-leading scorer in state history with 3,366 points.

5. Alyssa Bennett, Hampton                         12   215   17.9
   - In her first two seasons at Hampton, Bennett had three 20-plus point games. Through 12 games this season, she has seven.

6. Daeisha Brown, Longwood                       8   143   17.9
   - Thanks to the incredible website wbbstate.com, we have access to usage percentage, a statistic that calculates how involved each player is in their team's offense. And while it's overstating it to say that Brown IS the Longwood offense, the numbers reveal that no player in Virginia - and only a handful in all of Division I - has a bigger role in their team's attack than Brown does for the Lancers. Brown has missed Longwood's last two games, as has guard Kyndal Skersick (9.1 ppg).
,
7. Kirby Burkholder, JMU                           11   196   17.8
   - Has cooled a bit after a white-hot start - 15 of 44 FGs, 34.4 percent over her last three games - but deadly as always from the free-throw line (85.7 percent).

8. Shae Kelley, Old Dominion                       11   188   17.1
   - One of six players in Virginia currently averaging a double-double, along with VCU's Robyn Parks, Virginia Tech's Uju Ugoka, George Mason's Janaa Pickard, Liberty's Ashley Rininger and Norfolk State's Rachel Gordon.

9. Ashley Rininger, Liberty                           10   160   16.0
   - Has led or shared the team lead in scoring in seven of 10 games while doing the same in rebounding in nine of 10.

10. Janaa Pickard, George Mason                 11   167   15.2
   - Is averaging a double-double (10.1 rpg) and a shade under two blocks per game while shooting 50 percent from the field and 80 percent from the line. In short, a stunningly efficient player. Just watch those fouls, Janaa!

11. Nicole Hamilton, Hampton                       12   174   14.5
   - Is averaging 37.6 minutes per game, 10th in Division I. Teammate Alyssa Bennett is at 37.0 mpg, 21st in D-I. There are roughly 4,950 Division I women's basketball players.

12. Rae Corbo, Norfolk State                         10   144   14.4
   - Making a splendid return from the ACL injury that cost her all but one and a half games of the 2012-13 season.

13. Kaitlyn Mathieu, William and Mary           9   123    13.7
   - The 2010 Cancun Classic Mathieu is back, folks. We knew you could do it, Kaitlyn.
