CANADA MAKING HISTORY
UCLA's Jordin Canada became the first woman in Pac-12 history to score 1,800 points and dish out 700 assists (UCLA record) three weeks ago at Utah and Colorado (Jan. 12 & 14). She is in exclusive company in all of Pac-12 basketball as well, joining Gary Payton (2,172 points, 938 assists, Oregon State, 1987-90) on the men's side as the only two players to accomplish the feat. She currently ranks 25th all-time in the Pac-12 in career points (1,926) and needs three to move into 24th (Giuliana Mendiola, UW, 1928, 2001-04). She is third at UCLA and needs 176 points to take over second (Maylana Martin, 2,101, 1997-2000). Canada, the UCLA all-time assist leader ranks third in Pac-12 history in career assists (737). Threatening the career assists mark that has stood since 1990-91, she needs just 20 more to match the record. She also ranks third in Pac-12 history with 310 steals and needs 16 to take over second (Nikki Blue, UCLA, 325, 2003-06).
TOP BILLINGS
UCLA's Monique Billings became the third woman in UCLA history and the 14th in Pac-12 history to score 1,500 points and grab 1,000 rebounds in a career in the win over Stanford (Jan. 21). She now has 1,571 points to rank 14th at UCLA and 54th in the Pac-12. She also has 1,059 boards, which ranks third at UCLA and 16th in the Pac-12. Billings, the UCLA all-time leader in blocks (211) just passed Oregon State's Brina Chaney for 8th all-time in Pac-12 history.

She had 11 points and 11 rebounds in a win at USC (Feb. 5). She has five double-digit rebounding games this year (11 in her career).
ONYENWERE ON OFFENSIVE GLASS

ON THE DEAN'S LIST
Junior guard Japreece Dean missed the first nine games of the year due to NCAA transfer rules, but she is quickly making up for lost time. She is already third on the team in three-point field goals made (28) and tied for second in attempts (78). Her 2.0 three-point field goals made per game in Pac-12 play leads the team and ranks fifth in the league. Her 35.9 percent shooting from beyond the arc ranks third on the team.
IT'S MILLER TIME
Freshman forward Lauryn Miller leads the squad in field goal percentage at 60.0 percent (24-for-40) on the season. The number of makes don't qualify her for the Pac-12 or NCAA rankings, but she has shown signs of brilliance in her first collegiate campaign, logging six perfect games without a miss from the field.
