Junior averaged 18.0 points and 6.0 rebounds per game
Junior Macey Turley averaged 18.0 and 6.0 rebounds over two games in the 2021 OVC Women's Basketball Championship to be named to the 2021 OVC Women's All-Tournament Team, the league announced Saturday.
Turley scored 25 points in the quarterfinal win over Southeast Missouri and 11 in the loss to Belmont. The junior was also 10-for-11 from the free throw line Thursday, but did make it to the charity stripe Friday. Against Belmont, the Murray native did pull down a career-best eight rebounds against the Bruins and finished the tournament with 6.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.0 steals per game.
Turley's all-tournament selection is the first for the Racers in over a decade. The last MSU player to earn the honor was current Racer assistant coach Amber Guffey in 2009. In addition, Turley was the only player outside of tournament champion Belmont and runner-up UT Martin to earn the honor this season.
