Kaitlin Phillips
Phillips averaged 17.5 points, 6.0 rebounds and 5.5 assists as
Loras won games vs. Buena Vista and Wartburg last week. She scored
15 points, pulled down eight boards and had four assists in the
69-54 win over the Beavers. In the 71-70 win over the Knights, she
hit seven of nine shots from the floor and sank the game-winning
free throw with eight seconds remaining to cap a 20-point,
seven-assist, four-rebound afternoon.
Emily Camden
Camden averaged 26.0 points, shot 54 percent from 3-point range and
was perfect from the foul line on the week as she led Eureka to a
2-0 week with an 80-50 win at MacMurray and a 72-66 win vs.
Greenville. She shot 5-for-11 from beyond the arc en route to 21
points vs. MacMurray, then went one step better at home, shooting
8-for-13 from 3-point range, helping her score 31 vs. the
Panthers.
Meredith Mesaris
Mesaris had yet another big week, averaging 26.5 points, 6.0
rebounds and 1.5 blocks as the Lady Royals won twice and built a
two-game lead in the Landmark with three games remaining. She had
22 points, four rebounds and a block as Scranton held off Moravian,
67-64, on Wednesday. In the win, she became the program's all-time
leader in career free throws made. On Saturday, Mesaris had a
season-high 31 points on 12-for-17 from the field while pulling
down eight rebounds and making two blocks in an 81-47 win at
Juniata.
Alexandra Leslie
Leslie scored 20 of her career-high-tying 28 points in the second
half Friday night as Rochester upended No. 8 NYU, 72-63. The
Yellowjackets rallied from a 13-point second half deficit. Her 13
rebounds helped Rochester to a 54-38 rebound advantage and her six
assists against the Violets were a career high. In the last 49
seconds, Leslie hit seven of eight from the foul line to nail down
the victory. Leslie was Rochester's only double figure scorer
against Brandeis on Sunday. The win over NYU was the 300th
Rochester victory for coach Jim Scheible, now in his 16th year at
UR.
Kristen Schulz
Schulz averaged 29.0 points, 17.5 rebounds, and 6.0 blocks per game
last week as the Warriors won twice to take over sole possession of
first place in the NACC. She came within one block of her third
triple-double of the season Tuesday and poured in 31 points
Saturday, the third time this season Schulz has scored 30 or more
points in a game.
Men's
Aaron Walton-Moss
Walton-Moss averaged nearly a triple-double last week, recording
29.5 points, 14 rebounds and 8.5 assists. In a win over Baptist
Bible, the senior notched his sixth triple double of the season
with 36 points on 16-for-22 from the floor, 11 rebounds and 10
assists. Walton-Moss nearly had another on Saturday, leading
Cabrini to a win at Keystone with 23 points, a season-high 17
rebounds and seven assists.
Lavrone Green
Green had an outstanding week shooting and scoring as the Red
Hawks split a pair of NJAC contests. Green had 23 points, two
assists and four steals as MSU nearly pulled off an upset of No. 25
William Paterson before falling 70-67. Three days later he scored a
season-high 34 points, 21 in the second half, along with a pair of
rebounds and assist as MSU snapped a seven-game losing streak with
an 88-85 win at Rutgers-Camden. Green hit seven times from behind
the arc, the third-best single-game total in MSU history. Green
shot 11-for-18 from 3-point range on the week.

sparked the Comets to a pair of ASC wins. Farley opened the week
with his eighth double-double of the season with 21 points and 12
rebounds as UTD knocked off conference leader Hardin-Simmons on the
road Monday night. Farley then scored 36 points and added eight
rebounds as the Comets outlasted Louisiana College (92-88) in
overtime Thursday night. Farley's performance against LC marked the
second time this season he has scored more than 30 points. He shot
13-for-24 from 3-point range.
Deshawn Hamlet
Hamlet had a week to remember for the Mountaineers, helping them
stay perfect in NECC action with a pair of wins. The junior first
dropped a career-high 38 points in just 17 minutes Tuesday against
Newbury and then followed up with 28 Saturday against Mitchell;
that gave Hamlet an even 1,000 points. He shot 66.7 percent from
the floor over the week to average 33 points per game, going 18-20
from the free throw line across the two contests. He added eight
boards and 2.5 steals per game, pulling down 10 rebounds Saturday

to a pair of victories. He posted a 16-point, 16-rebound
double-double in Luther's 58-51 win over Simpson on Feb. 4, then
capped his week by hitting the game-winning shot with five seconds
remaining in a 66-64 win over league-leading Buena Vista on Feb. 7.
Martin finished with 22 points on 8-of-15 shooting, including four
3-pointers, and 11 rebounds against the Beavers.
