Ashley guided the Vikings to two wins in NSIC play over the weekend.  The senior guard recorded the second double-double of her career in an 83-72 win at home over Bemidji State on Friday with 18 points and 13 assists. The 13 assists was a career high for Ashley and just one short of the school record for assists in a game.  Ashley followed up that performance with all-around effort in a wild 97-90 overtime win against Minnesota Crookston on Saturday, finishing with 24 points, eight assists, and seven rebounds in the contest. Ashley finished the weekend with averages of 21.0 points, 10.5 assists, 5.0 rebounds on 48.6 percent shooting from the field.  The 21 assists were ten better than the next best performance in the NSIC this past weekend. This marks the third time this season Ashely has been named NSIC South Division Player of the Week (11/17 & 11/24).
