- Junior Ashley Joens is first in the Big 12 and ranks second in the nation in scoring, averaging 31.3 points a game. Joens has notched back-to-back 30point outings, dropping 36 points at SDSU and 33 at TCU in the Big 12 opener.
- The Cyclones have three freshmen currently in the starting lineup, and are one of just two power-5 teams to start three freshmen, joining California.
- Senior Kristin Scott earned preseason recognition of her own as she was named to the Lisa Leslie Award Watch List for the second-straight season. Scott was also an honorable mention selection for the Preseason All-Big 12 Team. Scott also needs just two points to reach 1,000 in her career.
- Iowa State is fresh off a Big 12 opening win at TCU, topping the Horned Frogs 91-68. Iowa State came out hot, grabbing as much as a 27-point lead with 4:17 to go in the 2nd quarter.
