Women's Basketball Choice Hotels NEC Player of the Week
|
Kaitlin Sowinski, Sacred Heart
Sowinski turned in her best performance of the season’s first five weeks to power the Pioneers to their fourth consecutive victory, a 64-56 road win at Princeton. In Sacred Heart’s lone game of the week, the 6-foot-4 center posted season highs in points (22), rebounds (17), and blocks (6). Sowinski swatted three shots in the game’s final five minutes to deny the Tigers, who had already beaten Monmouth and Fairleigh Dickinson, a third victory over a NEC member. After Princeton cut a 10-point deficit to six with 5:22 remaining in regulation, Sowinski responded by scoring four points, rejecting a layup, grabbing one of her career-high 17 boards during a 26-second span that bumped the Pioneers’ advantage back to double digits. The Sacred Heart senior shot well from both the field (7-14) and the charity stripe (8-11). Named the Choice Hotels NEC Player of the Week for the first time since earning the second of two awards last season on Jan. 28, 2008, Sowinski is the Pioneers’ first Choice Hotels weekly honoree of the 2008-09 campaign.
