The 5-10, junior guard from Victoria, Texas had a career-high 17 points to go with five rebounds, three assists and a steal in a 59-57 win at Tennessee Tech last Thursday and followed it with 16 points and five rebounds in an overtime loss at Tennessee State on Saturday.
Wimbish-Gay has registered at least 11 points in five straight games, increasing her season scoring average from 3.
