WILLIAMSTOWN, MASS. – Williams College junior forward
Arianna Gerig (Westport, Conn.) has been named to the D3hoops.com Team of the Week. The D3hoops.com Team of the Week is a national selection of the five top players in NCAA DIII..
The Team of the Week presented by Scoutware is
D3hoops.com's weekly honor roll, in its 27th season of recognizing the top performance at each of the five positions from the previous week.
Last week Gerig averaged 26 points, eight rebounds, four assists, two steals, and a block during a 1-1 weekend for the Ephs. She shot 19 of 39 (49%) from the field and 13 for 15 from the foul line.
Gerig had 17 points, eight rebounds, and five assists in a win over Maine Maritime, but what is most impressive is her performance in a tight 66-65 loss to No. 5 Rhode Island College. Gerig scored a game-high 35 points, with eight rebounds (also a game high) as Williams came just one shot from a massive upset.
Eph head coach
Pat Manning commented, "Arianna has been a force for us in our early games. What stands out to me is how she is playing at a high level on both ends of the court. Her offensive numbers are impressive, but her outstanding play on the defensive end really stands out."
