The sophomore led the Inferno in conference games with a 14.7 ppg average on 43% shooting from the floor. In 13 of 18 conference contests, Sorgi scored in double figures. The five games she did not reach double figures, she scored 9 points. Three times Sorgi scored over 20 points against conference opponents including a season-high of 25. She accomplished that feat twice, first on December 15th at Maranatha Baptist Bible College, and again on January 19th vs. Marian College. Averaging over 37 minutes a game, Sorgi also contributed over 5 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2.4 steals in every contest. "Lisa is one if the hardest working players I have ever coached,"said Alverno first year coach, Brad Duckworth. " She is a constantly in the weight room, and working on her game. She is a great leader by example and a great teammate. Lisa will be the first to say that she would rather win than score points or be all conference. I am very proud of her accomplishments this year and look forward to continued greatness for the next 2 years." Click here to see the NAC release
