Gustafson also recorded a double-double with 11 rebounds giving her four this season and 25th in her career.

"I'm so proud of Lillee and what she's accomplished for the last four years," said head coach Shonda Sanders. "She has been the foundation of this program and hitting this milestone just shows that her hard work has been rewarded. Being a nursing student and playing college basketball is not an easy thing to do. At least two times a week she has missed practice or film sessions and she does not complain or ever miss a beat. She will come in to make up her film sessions one-on-one and when she misses practice, she will schedule an individual workout. I'm so happy for her and what she means to this program."
