Women's

Camille Zinaich

Zinaich helped the Yeowomen register three wins this week. She recorded two triple-double performances: in an 86-59 win over Hiram, she dropped in 18 points to go along with 11 boards, 10 assists, and four steals while in a 77-75 OT win against Kenyon she posted 21 points, 16 rebounds, and a school-record 13 assists. For the week she shot 55% from the floor and averaged 14 points, 10 rebounds, and eight assists per game.

Kylie Stark

Stark helped lead the WildCats to two big conference wins this week, scoring 23 points and grabbing seven rebounds as Randolph defeated Shenandoah, Randolph's first win over the Hornets since 2017. She followed that up with a career-high 29 points and eight rebounds in a victory at Virginia Wesleyan, just the fifth over the Marlins in program history. On the week, she scored 26 points and brought in eight rebounds per game, shooting 46% from three.

Haley Crossley

Crossley recorded a pair of double-double in back-to-back AEC wins over Neumann (W, 95-80) and Immaculata (W, 95-91 in OT). She recorded 25 points, a dozen rebounds, two blocks, and five steals in the win over the Knights, then put in a season-high 33 points, 12 rebounds, and an assist in the floowing game. She averaged 29 points and 12 rebounds on the week, shooting 64% from the floor.

Julia Strand

Strand averaged 28 points and 13 rebounds in three games last week. In the win over La Verne, she scored 32 points, grabbed 18 boards, and had zero turnovers. Strand also averaged three assists, two steals and a block per game, shooting 80% from the FT line.

Olivia Nagy

Nagy notched 14 points, 21 rebounds, and five blocks against Otterbein, then put in 23 points with 13 rebounds vs. Wilmington. Nagy shot 63% from the floor and averaged 19 points, 17 rebounds, and four blocks per game, and won the OAC Player of the Week award for the second consecutive time.

Men's

Jamir Billings

Billings averaged 16 points, 11 assists, six steals, and five rebounds per game during a 2-0 week for the Fighting Scots, which included an 83-80 win over archrival Wittenberg. Billings tied the 49-year-old program record with 12 assists during a 91-77 win over Kenyon on Wednesday. He added 10 more on Saturday to become the first player in Wooster history to record back-to-back 10 assist games.

Alex Kravchuk

Kravchuk topped his career best scoring night by 10, with 43 points against Gordon this week. Over three games, Kravchuk averaged 33 points with 10 rebounds and three steals. He shot 50% from the floor and 40% from three.

Joe Palmer

Palmer averaged 26 points and 13 rebounds per game while shooting 54% from the floor in a 2-0 week for the Auggies. He scored 21 and added a career-high 16 rebounds with a block and a steal in Augsburg's win over Concordia-Moorhead, then recorded 30 points (including the bucket that proved to be the game winner) and 10 rebounds in the Auggies' huge road win at St. John's.

Christian Stewart

Stewart had a career week leading Spalding to a pair of conference wins. It's often easier for one player to rack up big numbers against a System team such as Greeville, but Stewart's 52 points and 15 rebounds were followed by 34 points and eight boards in the next game against Eureka. He averaged 43 points on the week, to go along with 12 rebounds and three assists, while shooting 68% from the field.

Bobby Hawkinson

Hawkinson recorded three big 20-point double-doubles this week, including a career-high 32 points at Misericordia, where he hit a running three-pointer at the buzzer to win the game and secure a spot on SportsCenter's Top 10 Plays. Hawkinson averaged 27 points and 14 rebounds over three games, shooting 67% from the floor, 50% from three, and 78% from the free throw line.
