Saint Mary's University of Minnesota Athletics

Paulson was the Cardinal women’s basketball team’s leading scorer in both games last week, averaging 16.5 points-per-game and 8.5 rpg, as SMU split its contests against Bethel and St. Scholastica.
 
The senior poured in 17 points and added seven rebounds in a one-point, 60-59 loss to Bethel last Wednesday, before pouring in 16 points — including a perfect 10-for-10 from the free throw line — and added 10 rebounds for her first double-double of the season in SMU’s 74-55 rout of St. Scholastica three days later.
