Women's
Allie Goodman
Goodman scored a career high 26 points, with seven rebounds and three assists in an overtime conference win at Western New England. It was UNE's first game in more than a month and they found themselves down 17 halfway through the third quarter. Goodman scored 22 of her 26 points in those final fourteen minutes, plus overtime to secure the win. She shot 14-for-17 from the free throw line.
Elyce Knudsen
Alison Leslie
Leslie scored 38 points, including 10 made 3pt FGs in a huge 80-72 MWC win at Illinois College this week, both were school records. She averaged 30 points and five rebounds on the week, shooting 66% from the floor, 65% from behind the arc, and was perfect from the FT line.
Angela Sanders
Sanders late game heroics lifted Abington to a victory against St. Mary's (Md.) this week, 72-74. She hit a tying three with just under a minute to play and then scored the go ahead bucket twice more to seal the win. Sanders finished Abington's only game this week with 35 points and 19 rebounds on 13-for-19 shooting (4-for-5 from deep) to go with three assists and three steals.
Aleah Grundahl
Grundahl was the best player for a Whitewater team that might've had the best week of any squad in any week this season. She scored the game-tying 3-pointer to force overtime and eventually beat No. 21 UW-Oshkosh, then scored 28 points on 12-for-19 shooting, to go along with five rebounds, two assists, and three steals to defeat No. 11 UW-Eau Claire in key home conference games. She averaged 21 points and six rebounds on the week, shooting over 50% from the floor.
Men's
Derek Gray
Gray averaged 28 points on 48% shooting and added five rebounds and three steals per game last week to help the Warhawks win a pair of WIAC road games and improve to 4-0 in conference play. On Wednesday at No. 6 UW-Oshkosh, he posted a career-high 36 points to go with seven rebounds and four steals to help UW-Whitewater to an 82-78 overtime victory. Three days later, Gray registered 19 points, three rebounds, and two steals and hit the go-ahead jumper with 33 seconds left to help the Warhawks to a 77-72 triumph at UW-Eau Claire.
Tim Jones
Jones averaged 26 points, seven rebounds, and six assists over two big conference wins. He hit seven of 10 threes on the week, including his first six against Washington & Lee, a team EMU hasn't beaten in five years. Jones had 32 in that victory and 19 in the win over Randolph.
Jacob Narvaez
Narvaez went a perfect 9-for-9 from the floor in a huge Mitchell win over Colby. He also secured his first career double-double, pulling down 16 rebounds in the game.
Jake Schroeckenthaler
Matt Morrow
Morrow averaged 19 points and 15 rebounds on 69% shooting over three games this week, including handing Suffolk its first conference loss of the season. He scored a career high 31 against Curry. He hit the 1000 career point/1000 career rebound mark.
