Remaining career records chase - Rebounds and Blocked Shots

If I have done the math correctly...

Rebounds

Brianna Turner will get the career rebounding record. She needs 17 to catch Ruth Riley (1007 to 990). That's 4.3 per game if the Irish only play four more times and 2.8 per game if they make it to the championship game. Her average is 7.5 per game this season.

Pro forma would be getting the record in the round of 16 game, but she could get it on her home court if she gets enough early round playing time.

Blocked Shots

The blocked shots record will be tougher, but it isn't out of the question. Riley has 370 to Turner's 350. If the Irish play four games, Turner will need 5 blocks per game. If they go to the championship game, it falls to 3.3 per game.

Her average is 2.6 per game this season, so she will need to get 2 or 3 every game and have a couple of really big games en route to the national championship game. For example, two games with 5 blocks and her average in the other four games will get her the record. Possible, but not easy.
