She also ranks third in the SEC in assists a game with 4.6 and is fifth in the league in steals, averaging 2.3 a contest.
Earlier this season, Rack became State's third-leading career scorer behind former MSU All-Americans LaToya Thomas and Tan White. Currently Rack has 1,692 career points and holds school career and single season records for 3-point field goals made and 3-point field goal attempts.
Rack and the rest of the Lady Bulldogs will depart Friday in preparation of their first-round game of the NCAA Tournament in Pittsburgh, Pa. State, the 7-seed in the Dayton Regional, will take on 10-seed Middle Tennessee Sunday at 1:30 p.m. CT on ESPN.
