A Racer has now won the award in three of four weeks of the season
Sophomore forward Katelyn Young of the Murray State women's basketball team has been named as the OVC Player of the Week for the second consecutive week, the league announced Tuesday. It marks the third consecutive week that a Racer has been tabbed for the honor, after Macey Turley earned the award in week two.
Young averaged a double-double of 21.0 points and 10.0 rebounds on a week which she shot 71.4-percent from the floor over two Racer wins. The sophomore finished Tuesday's game at Evansville with 28 points and 13 rebounds, followed by 14 points and seven rebounds against Samford.
Young went 10-for-10 from the floor in the Evansville game, becoming the first Racer to ever do so. She was also 2-for-4 from 3-point range on the week and 10-for-14 from the free throw line with six assists and two steals
