Healy followed that by scoring 18 points and grabbing 11 rebounds in a 100-50 win over St. Andrews, and she earned all-tournament honors in the Travel America Classic. Healy capped the week by collecting her third double-double in four days (21 points, 12 rebounds) as the Norse scored a big regional road win at Wayne State, 78-60. Healy also blocked nine shots and added 10 assists for the week.
