Asya Bussie played an integral role in West Virginia's 66-50 upset
win over No. 14/12 Louisville Saturday as she led the Mountaineers with a
double-double of 18 points and 11 rebounds. It was the sixth
double-double of her career. WVU dominated the paint 34-24 against the
Cardinals, with Bussie accounting for nearly half of the paint points.
In
the win at USF, Bussie co-led WVU in rebounding with seven boards and
converted 4-of-9 free throws to finish with six points.
Bussie
averaged 12.0 points per game, 9.0 rebounds per game and 1.5 blocked
shots per game in a pair of BIG EAST wins last week. She shot 56.3
percent (9-16) and 46.2 percent (6-13) from the free throw line.
Richardson has now scored 9.825 or better on floor in three meets this season.
