Fifteen of her game-high 28 points came in the third quarter as the first-year wing hit her fist five field-goal attempts to turn a double-digit halftime deficit into a single-digit game.

The Webster native finished the night 10-of-15 shooting overall, which including a season-best five three-pointers on seven attempts. Kimball set career highs in minutes played (37), points (27), field goals (10), field-goal attempts (15), three-pointers (5), three-point attempts (7) and blocks (3). Kimball's scoring average increased to 10.2 points per game through 10 contests, which ranks third on the Warriors. She also ranks second on the Warriors in field-goal percentage (.438) and three-point field-goal percentage (.361).
