On opening night against No. 8 George Fox, Milton came off the bench and made a huge splash in her collegiate debut, hitting 7-for-11 from the field and 4-for-6 from three-point range on her way to 18 points in Trinity’s 74-55 win over the Bruins. She also added three rebounds, two steals and one assist in the win. The rookie would follow that performance with 10 points on 3-for-5 shooting against No. 9 St. Thomas (Minn.) the following night.
