Fulton and McFadden Earn Weekly Honors
I understand why conferences announce co-award winners -- more exposure for more players; but, personally, I believe it's a cop out. Simply choose one winner. But, that's just my opinion.
Anyhow...
...Conference USA has named Crystal McFadden of UAB and Rice's Maudess Fulton as Co-Players of the Week after solid performances last week against tough competition.
McFadden averaged 24.5 points and shot 72.7 percent from the field against Illinois and Auburn, while Fulton contributed 20.5 points and shot 48.5 percent from the field against Cal State Northridge and a tough UCLA team.
CRYSTAL MCFADDEN, UAB, 5'10, Senior, Guard, New York, N.Y.
McFadden shot 72.7 percent from the field and 93.3 percent from the charity stripe while tallying 49 points in back-to-back 20-plus point outings as UAB went 1-1 during the week. She scored a game-high 25 points in the Blazers' 69-55 rout of Illinois in Champaign, followed by 24 points in UAB's loss at Auburn. The senior guard is averaging 19.3 ppg on the year and also has 4.3 rpg.
MAUDESS FULTON, RICE 5'10, Junior, Guard, Morristown, N.J.
Fulton averaged 20.5 points and 4.5 rebounds per game as Rice went 1-1 over the weekend. She also shot 48.5 percent from the floor as the Owls defeated Cal State Northridge, 81-55, and battled a tough UCLA team to a 79-71 loss.
Fulton connected for a career-best 27 points at UCLA, who is receiving votes in the WBCA, ESPN, USA Today Top 25 Poll. The New Jersey native knocked down an impressive 11-of-21 from the floor to go along with eight rebounds in 37 minutes of action. She also grabbed eight rebounds against the Bruins falling two rebounds shy of her second career double-double. Fulton started the weekend with a 14-point effort and three steals in at Cal State Northridge.
Rice improved to 4-1 on the season, its best start since the 2001-02 season.
The Owls play Arkansas - Little Rock, Tuesday, November 20, at Reliant Arena. The game tips off at 5 pm because it's part of a doubleheader with the Rice Owls' men's basketball team which starts at 7:20 pm.
