Last week, Quaadman helped UTPB qualify for the Lone Star Conference tournament with her ten points, 13 rebounds, five assists and two blocked shots in the Falcons’ 90-54 win over Angelo State on Feb. 28 at Falcon Dome.

It was her 11th double-double of the season.

She followed it up with ten points, seven rebounds and three blocked shots in UTPB’s 78-65 loss to Angelo State on Saturday in San Angelo.
