Northwest Christian University’s Morgan McKinney was named the Red Lion Women’s Basketball Player of the Week, her fourth honor of the year.
The five-foot-eight sophomore guard from Lake Oswego, Ore., scored a season-high 33 on Friday, moving into second on NCU’s career list. McKinney had another well-rounded statistical effort in NCU's dramatic come-from-behind win over Warner Pacific University, hanging onto a tie for first-place with two games to play. Her five steals were a career-high. She finished the week averaging 23.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 6.0 assists and 4.0 steals per week. McKinney also shot 51.6-percent from the floor, including a 5-of-10 performance from beyond the arc.
