Richmond, Va.— Arden Tierney reached two major career milestones Sunday as the #19 Spiders took down Wofford at home, 19-6.

The junior recorded 14 draw controls to break her own school record of 13 set in last year's season opener against Radford.

Not only did Tierney break the single-game draw controls record, but the she also reached the 150 mark for career draw controls with her 11th today.

Last game, she recorded her 100th career point with a goal in the third quarter, today she added to those numbers with four more points including a hat trick and an assist.
