The junior is the second straight Bloodhound (Lashannen Hogue) to win the award after averaging 17.3 points and 14.7 rebounds in John Jay’s 3-0 week.  The Stevenson product converted 58 percent of her field goal attempts (21-for-36) and also added six steals on the week.  The Bronx native was completely dominant in the conference victory at City Tech, scoring 23 points and ripping down 21 rebounds.  She recorded 13 points and nine rebounds versus Old Westbury (12/1) and finished up the week with another double-double (16 points, 14 rebounds) against Albertus Magnus this past Saturday.
