NAPERVILLE, Ill. – Houston Baptist sophomore
Shanice Steenholdt earned the final Great West Conference Player of the Week Award of the season after averaging 27.0 points and 10.5 rebounds per game in two games last week, the conference office announced.
Steenholdt, a 6-0 forward from Roswell, N.M., finished out the regular season in style by averaging 27.0 points and 10.5 rebounds per game. She scored 33 points in the Huskies' first conference win on the season, a 92-57 victory over Chicago State on March 7. The 33 points are the second-most she has scored in her career and the second time in the last month with 30-plus points. Steenholdt then followed up that performance with a 21-point, 16-rebound effort in a loss against NJIT on March 9. It was her 16th double double on the year and the 16 rebounds tied her season high.
