Wiley Lands on D3hoops.com Team of the Week
NEW LONDON, Conn. -- The honors continue to roll in for Mitchell College sophomore Amina Wiley, who landed one of five spots on the D3hoops.com Team of the Week on Tuesday.
The Team of the Week is D3hoops.com's weekly honor roll, in its 23rd season of recognizing the top performance at each of the five positions from the previous week. Wiley becomes the first women's player from Mitchell to earn the honor.
Wiley averaged a team-high 25.0 points and 24.5 rebounds per game last week as the Mariners went 2-0 in non-conference road games. She posted a career-high 30 points to go with 17 boards in a two-point victory at Lasell College. She then put up 20 points and a career-best 32 rebounds in a 12-point win at Anna Maria College. The 32 rebounds, in addition to breaking the school record, are the most in a single NCAA game this season at any level (DI, II or III).
The accolade from D3hoops.com comes on the heels of Wiley being named Division III National Women's Player of the Week by the United States Basketball Writers Association. She was also tabbed New England Collegiate Conference Player of the Week on Monday.
