She also tallied eight rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and one block, playing all 40 minutes in a 92-82 victory over conference foe Yeshiva. Zaborowska set the FSC single game record for 3-point field goal percentage (.900) and tied the mark for 3s made with nine.
Alexis Jones
Jones had 24 points and fourteen rebounds as Augustana defeated No. 22 Illinois Wesleyan 86-80 on Sunday. She made 10 of 17 shots from the field and four of five from the free throw line, contributing five assists and six steals to round out a very full stat line.
Riley Brovelli
Brovelli dropped a career-high 21 points and grabbed a game-high 15 rebounds to lead IWU past UWSP on Dec. 9. She notched her third straight double-double with 15 points and 14 rebounds against Augustana, Dec. 15. She also tallied four assists, three blocks, and a steal.
Jazmyn Solseth
Solseth scored a team-high 19 points, with nine rebounds, three steals and two assists, as No. 21 Augsburg claimed one of its biggest victories in program history, a 69-65 win at No. 9 St. Thomas. The victory snapped a 26-game losing streak to the Tommies and marked just the second-ever win for Augsburg at St. Thomas, snapping a 36-game road losing streak dating to 1985. Solseth shot 7-of-13 from the field, hitting two 3-pointers, while also going 3-for-4 from the free-throw line.
Men's
Eric Demers
Demers scored 91 points over two games for Gordon this week, 49 in taking No. 17 Nichols to overtime and 42 against Plymouth State (including his 2000th career point). He hit nine three pointers in each game, grabbing ten rebounds against Nichols and five against Plymouth State. On the week, Demers shot 53% from the field and 50% from behind the arc.
Jordan Harris
Harris averaged 30 points in two games on 48% field goal shooting and 48% from 3-point range while helping Adrian win the St. Andrews Products Classic at Trine University. In an 82-61 win over the LU Duhawks, he was among four Bulldog starters in double-digits with 20 points, had five rebounds and dished four assists. He followed that up with an MIAA season-high and personal career-high 40 points in a 94-87 comeback win over Hiram. The Terriers led by nine points at one point, but Harris scored 22 points in the second half alone to key the Bulldogs' rally.
Samuel Majekodunmi
Majekodunmi shot 64% from the floor, including 60% from three in handing Hood their first loss of the season. He scored 23 points, but none more important than a three with three seconds remaining to seal the victory for Albright.
Connor Seipel
Seipel led the Wittenberg scoring effort against Bridgewater, finishing with 26 points, knocking down 9 of 11 from the floor, with 11 rebounds, four assists, and three blocked shots against the Eagles. On the week, he put up 34 points, knocked down 15 of 21 shots from the floor and pulled down 23 rebounds.
Mike Rapoza
Rapoza led Anna Maria to two wins on the week, mounting eye-popping numbers, even by his already lofty standards. In a 78-71 win at Framingham State, Rapoza scored 20 points and pulled down 26 rebounds. He followed this up with 27 points and 21 rebounds on 71% shooting in an 87-82 overtime win vs Mitchell, where he played all 45 minutes.
