Notes
• Michigan continues Big Ten action after wrapping non-conference action last week, returning to Crisler Center to host USC for the first time as conference opponents.
• The jersey honoring of Katelynn Flaherty Yates has been postponed due to air travel difficulties. More information on the new date will be available at a later date.
• U-M is 10-0 at Crisler Center this season, most recently picking up an 85-69 win over No. 25 Illinois on Jan. 15. Michigan is averaging 91.3 points per game on 50.2 percent shooting at home.
• USC won both games last season in its first year in the Big Ten, beating U-M in Los Angeles and in the semifinals of the Big Ten Tournament. The Trojans lead the all-time series, 3-1, with U-M winning the first game in the series in 2007.
• J. Ira and Nicki Harris Family Head Women's Basketball Coach Kim Barnes Arico picked up the 300th win of her Michigan career with a 94-60 win at Rutgers (Jan. 22), becoming the first Michigan basketball coach -- men's or women's -- to reach the 300-win mark in Ann Arbor.
• Kendall Dudley has turned it on of late, scoring in double figures in three of Michigan's last four games.

It was the second-most points Michigan has ever scored in a conference game and the second time U-M has reached 100 in a conference game this season. This is the first time in program history that U-M has had five 100-point games in a season after recording three during the 1996-97 and 2016-17 seasons. Michigan is averaging 87.9 points per game, good for first in the Big Ten and sixth nationally.
• Mila Holloway has elevated her game during her sophomore season, averaging 12.5 points per game on 44.9 percent shooting from the field. She has handed out 84 assists through 19 games, good for 4.4 per game.
