The 39 points that Amanda Zahui B. scored in Tuesday night's Gophers victory over 13th-ranked Iowa were impressive.
The 29 rebounds were even more so.
It was only the 14th time since the NCAA began sanctioning women's basketball in the 1981-82 season that a player had gotten 29 rebounds in a game. The record is 40 by Deborah Temple of Delta State in 1983.
Plus, it was only the fifth time it had been done in a Division I women;'s game in the last 20 years.One of those came earlier this month when 6-foot-8 Mimi Mungedi of Nevada grabbed 29 against San Jose State.
Zahui, a 6-5 sophomore, also broke the Big Ten record of 26, which had been set by Jerica Watson of Iowa in 2001.
