DETROIT -- Freshman Shareta Brown (Pontiac, MI/Grand Blanc) continues to see her name among the very best in the nation as the latest NCAA stats were released this week.

Brown is currently leading the Horizon League and is 10th in the nation in field-goal percentage (55.5%). She is also eighth in the HL and 81st in the country with 8.6 rebounds per game, while standing fifth in the league and 59th in Division I in scoring (16.9).

She has already broken one Titan freshman scoring record on the year with 31 points at Loyola on Jan. 7 and is on the verge of overtaking the rookie record for points in a season. With 26 games in the books, Brown has already tallied 440 and trails only Titan Hall-Of-Famer Cassandra Pack, who posted 453 in just 26 games (17.4 ppg.) during the 1983-84 season.

The last true freshman to lead the Titans in scoring was someone by the name of Autumn Rademacher (15.2 in 1993-94).

Other players among the top 100 in the nation include senior Jalesa Jones (Detroit, MI/Pershing), who tops the conference with 4.8 assists per game, good for 48th in the country. She is also second in the HL and 81st in the nation with a 1.52 assist-to-turnover ratio

Jones is just six assists shy of tying the school record, currently held by Titan Hall-Of-Famer Mary Lillie (1978-82) at 486. While the research has not been completed, Jones will end her career in the top 20 all-time among Horizon League players in that category.

Another local product, sophomore Senee Shearer (Detroit, MI/Pershing) has her name in the top 100 for her long-range shooting. On the year, Shearer is second in the HL with 55 3-pointers and third in the conference with 2.1 per game.

Her 55 3-pointers are also tied for ninth in school history, just one behind coach Rademacher's seventh and eighth-place mark of 56 as a freshman and sophomore and three in back of Michelle James' 58 (2000-01) for sixth.

She is 81st in the country with 2.1 three's per game and 92nd with a 32.0% three-point field goal percentage.

As a team, the Titans are second in the Horizon League and 42nd in Division I with a +5.2 rebounding margin. They also rank second in the HL and 47th in the nation in field-goal percentage (42.1%) and third in the conference (65th in the nation) with 14.3 assists per game.

Detroit returns to action on Thursday as the Titans look for the season sweep of Cleveland State and a chance to lock up a top-four seed and a home game in the upcoming Horizon League Tournament. Game time is set for 7:00 p.m., at Dick Vitale Court in Calihan Hall.
