After a rocky start that included three straight losses to open the season, women’s basketball has gone 2-1 over their last three games as they get closer to opening PacWest conference play. Junior guard Tatum Brimley has been a big part of that recent improvement as she has stepped up her play for the Eagles’ last several games.

While most were heading home for the Thanksgiving holiday, Brimley was busy getting buckets in two matchups over the past week.

In Biola’s first game of Thanksgiving weekend, against Northeastern State University on Black Friday, Brimley tallied a team-leading 18 points to go alongside three rebounds and two assists leading her team to a 74-62 victory in the neutral site contest.

Despite taking a tough loss in their Saturday game against Northwest Nazarene University, Brimley still managed to put up seven points, a rebound and three assists.

For her hot shooting and overall contribution to her team’s play, Brimley is this week’s Chimes Athlete of the Week.
