Morton went 13-for-14, 92.9 percent, on Feb. 3, 1986 against Lipscomb. The shooting clip is the sixth-most efficient effort in Division II on the year registering the most made field goals of the 18 players to convert on at least 90 percent of their shot attempts. Taylor became the first Lady Eagle to make 15 shots from the field since Haris Price made 16 at Lenoir-Rhyne on Feb. 2, 2019, 86 games and 1,123 days prior. For the year, the forward has racked up 26 double-digit scoring nights with nine of at least 20 points as the team went 25-1 when she scores at least 10 points.

Taylor had scored 36 points this season before Monday night's outburst going 12-for-14 from the field and making nine of 13 foul shots to produce her second double-double of the season. It was the first 30/10 game by a C-N player since Kayla Marosites the second round of the 2018 NCAA Women's Basketball Championships against Lander on March 10, 2018. All told, she led the team in scoring three times and in rebounds 13 times including a career-high night of 16 at UVA Wise on Feb. 10 where she scored 20 points on 8-for-12 shooting.
