Timme!!!!
Player of the Week , F, Gonzaga It’s no kept secret that the big man for the Gonzaga Bulldogs was going to put up numbers once again, but to be the big man on campus, no pun intended, is a whole different story. In three games leading up to their matchup against the Bellarmine Knights,…

Dose of Reality
Player of the Week: , (Illinois) You can teach a basketball player how to shoot, pass, and defend, but one thing you cannot teach is toughness.

Dawson’s Creek Flowing
Player of the Week (Marquette) I don’t know who deserves the Big East freshman of the year award more than Dawson Garcia. He leads Marquette in scoring at 13.2 points per game, outstanding for a freshman who is on a team that is right around .500. He has been key for the Golden Eagles, especially…
Poster Boy
Player of the Week , PF/C, #11 Florida State Seminoles There will always be players who come in and put up better stats than Gray every single week, but his consistency and impact is greater than anyone in the conference despite the low statistical numbers.
