She is also sixth in the SCAC in free-throw percentage hitting 74.4 percent of her charity tosses. Coach Jennifer Ruff likes what she sees. "Jennifer missed some games early and is right now performing at a high level. She's in game shape and getting back in sync. She now seems comfortable with our offense and I really like her rebounding. She’s tough inside and we hope this continues." Centre is currently in second place in the conference with a 4-1 record (7-5 overall) and will travel to Millsaps and Oglethorpe this weekend. - end -
