Red Lion Players of the Week Announced
The following CCC student-athletes have been recognized as Red Lion Players of the Week for their performances during the period of December 1-7.
Bryan McGriff
Men’s Basketball
Eastern Oregon’s Bryan McGriff has been named the Red Lion Men’s Basketball Player of the Week.
McGriff, a junior forward from Las Vegas, Nev., led the Mountaineers to a 2-0 week with victories over Evergreen and Northwest.
He recorded two double-doubles on the week as he collected 10 rebounds in both games. He shot 65 percent from the floor for the weekend, and 64 percent from behind the arc.
Honorable mention: Devyn Iglehart, NCU, Justyn Searle, CU
Sierra Dean
Women’s Basketball
Concordia’s Sierra Dean has been named the Red Lion Women’s Basketball Player of the Week.
Dean, a freshman guard from Tacoma, Wash., helped CU post three wins last week, including wins over top-25 ranked SOU and OIT. Dean reached double figures in scoring on all three nights, including a 24-point outing against No.13 SOU on Friday.
At 7-1, CU is already one win shy of its total from last season while its 2-0 start in the CCC is halfway to its 4-14 record in conference play from a year ago.
