FORT MYERS, Fla. - The FGCU women's basketball team (9-1) will meet Florida Memorial (6-5) on Monday at 7 p.m. inside Alico Arena. It will be the third-consecutive season the two teams have met.
 
The matchup is part of Christmas Movie Night and is the team's Silent Night game, where the crowd will stay completely silent until the Eagles score their 10th point.
 
Wingate on A Tear
Davion Wingate is averaging 17.3 points per contest through the season's first 10 games, which is just behind Sarah Hansen's 17.4 per game start through the same amount of games in 2012-13. In fact, they're the only two in the program's Division I era to average at least 17 at this point of the season. Trish Fleming also averaged 22.8 points in the 2002-03 season, but that was when the Eagles were an NAIA team.
 
Nationally-Ranked Eagles?
Last week, FGCU sat just outside the top 25 in the two major national polls, receiving the 27th-most votes in the Associated Press and 28th-most in the Coaches Poll. A couple teams ahead of them have since lost, giving the Eagles a potential chance to earn their first ranking since finishing 25th in the Coaches Poll on April 2, 2018. Their last AP ranking came April 6, 2015 when they finished the season 21st. The new polls come out Monday and Tuesday.
 
Real-Time RPI
While the first official RPI rankings produced by the NCAA haven't come out yet this year, FGCU is ranked 13th in the RealTimeRPI.com rankings with their only loss this year to No. 5 Princeton. For the full rankings, visit here.
 
AAC who?
After the 57-45 win over Houston this past Wednesday, FGCU is now 3-0 against American Athletic Conference (AAC) teams. They entered the season slated to face four of the top six teams in the AAC preseason poll, and they've now defeated USF (2nd), UCF (3rd) and Houston (5th). Temple, who was picked sixth, rounds out the action on Dec. 22.
 
Down Go The Fighting Irish, More Power 5's On Tap
With their win over defending national runner-up Notre Dame last week, FGCU produced its sixth all-time win against an ACC school, which is its most against any Power 5 conference. The Eagles have also won five against the SEC, four vs the Big 10 and one apiece against the Pac 12 and Big 12. They'll get a chance to improve their 17-27 all-time record against Power 5 schools on Dec. 19 vs No. 25 LSU and Dec. 29 vs Duke.
 
Rebounding Legend
Senior forward Tytionia Adderly recently eclipsed Sarah Hansen's (887, 2010-14) career rebounding record. She now has 947 and is attempting to become the first player in program history with 1,000 rebounds, which would also make her only the 12th in ASUN history to achieve that milestone. She surpassed Kristy Brown (Stetson, 2001-05, 941) for 14th-most in the win over Houston and is now only 10 short of eclipsing Kat Sungy (Jacksonville, 1999-2003, 956) for 13th.
 
Furthermore, Adderly (Jupiter, Fla./Cardinal Newman HS) is one of only four players in the program's Division I history to rank in the top 10 in career rebounds, assists, steals and blocks - joining Sarah Hansen, Whitney Knight and DyTiesha Dunson.
 
Trio reaches 1,000, O'Neal looking to join
The trio of Keri Jewett-Giles (1,065), Davion Wingate (1,051) and Nasrin Ulel (1,034) eclipsed the 1,000 point plateau in their NCAA careers in back-to-back-to-back games starting with Saint Francis on Nov. 22. They will be honored for their accomplishments prior to the team's next home game against Central Connecticut State on Dec. 17. Additionally, Ashli O'Neal enters tonight's game just 60 points shy of becoming the fourth to achieve the mark.

Back-to-Back in the ASUN
Last Tuesday, graduate transfer guard Ashli O'Neal won her second straight ASUN newcomer of the week award, and she proceeded to pour in 15 points in the team's win over Houston on Wednesday. Furthermore, Keri Jewett-Giles was named the ASUN player of the week for the first time this season after dropping 12, 19 and 24 points in wins over Notre Dame, No. 20 USF and South Dakota State.
 
Raining Threes
FGCU, which broke the NCAA's all-time record for most 3-pointers made in a season in 2017-18 with 431, is once again leading the nation in three of the four 3-point shooting categories. The only one they don't lead in is percentage, where they rank 79th nationally.

COACH SMESKO
FGCU head coach Karl Smesko led the 2018-19 Eagles to the program's fifth undefeated conference regular season since 2011-12, as well as the ninth consecutive season with at least 25 victories. The Green and Blue finished 28-5 overall and 16-0 in ASUN play, capturing the team's ninth ASUN regular season championship and sixth ASUN tournament championship. The team finished the season receiving votes in the final AP Poll and advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the sixth time in eight seasons before falling to host No. 19 Miami in the first round. It was the team's 12th-straight postseason appearance in 12 years of Division-I existence - the only program to ever do such.

Over the past five seasons, Smesko has guided FGCU to three 30-plus win seasons while recording a 149-28 (.841) record overall. That win total ranks eighth-best in the nation over that stretch - the most among all mid-majors and ahead of programs such as Oregon State and Stanford.

Including 2018-19, Smesko has also guided the Eagles to 15-straight 20-win seasons. He maintains a record of 533-120 (.816) overall in his career (third highest winning percentage among active D1 coaches behind only UConn's Geno Auriemma and Baylor's Kim Mulkey), including a 186-16 (.921) mark in ASUN play. Over the past eight seasons (including 2018-19), he has guided FGCU to a 124-4 (.969) record in conference play with five undefeated seasons. The now nine-time ASUN Coach of the Year earned his 400th career coaching win in 2014-15 in just 493 career games, two games faster than Auriemma.

ABOUT FGCU
FGCU teams have combined to win an incredible 80 conference regular season and tournament titles in just 12 seasons at the Division-I level.

Seven FGCU programs have earned a top-25 national ranking in their respective sport - including both men's and women's soccer again in 2018. In 2016-17, the Green and Blue posted a department-best sixth-place finish in the DI-AAA Learfield Directors' Cup and top-100 showing nationally, ahead of several Power-5 and FBS institutions.

FGCU also collectively earned a record 3.35 GPA in the classroom in the spring 2018 semester and has outperformed the general University undergraduate population for twenty consecutive semesters. The Eagles also served an all-time high 7,200 volunteer hours in 2017 - being recognized as one of two runners-up for the inaugural NACDA Community Service Award presented by the Fiesta Bowl.
