HUNTSVILLE – Women’s basketball extended their program-record winning streak to 16 games with a 64–48 victory over Valdosta State on Thursday night at SportsMED Arena inside Spragins Hall.

The Chargers set the tone early, opening the game on an 11-0 run. Lili Wilken accounted for five of those points and continued to lead the offense throughout the night. She finished the first half with 10 points before reaching a major career milestone in the third quarter, scoring on a layup to become the 11th player in program history to reach 1,000 career points. The last UAH player to accomplish the feat was Holly Harris (2018–22).
