The next day, Meacham followed up with a stellar double-double performance against Johnson, tallying 11 points and 11 rebounds while adding three blocks, three steals, and two assists. Once again, her efficiency was on full display as she shot 83.3 percent from the field (5-of-6) and stayed perfect at the line (1-of-1).

For the week, Meacham averaged 15.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, three assists, 1.5 blocks, and 1.5 steals per game, shooting an impressive 85.7 percent (12-of-14) from the field and a flawless 100 percent from the free-throw line (7-of-7).
