Graduate guard averaged 14.3 points over past four games
MILWAUKEE — Marquette women's basketball graduate guard Karissa McLaughlin has been named to the BIG EAST Weekly Honor Roll after a four-game stretch which she averaged 14.3 points per game while shooting 43.3 percent (13-of-30) from 3-point range. Against DePaul, McLaughlin finished with a game-high 24 points including 11 of the team's 14 points in overtime. Against Georgetown, she hit seven triples, just one shy of the program single game record.Â
This is McLaughlin's third Weekly Honor Roll appearance of the season.
BIG EAST Player of the Week
Emma Ronsiek, Creighton, So., F
Ronsiek led the second-place Bluejays to a 3-1 record over the last two weeks, capping the busy stretch with a pair of career-highlighting performances. The sophomore forward was one point shy of her career best when she tallied 27 points off 12-of-16 shooting in Friday's win over Seton Hall, before erupting for a career-best 30 points off 10-of-17 shooting in Sunday's win over St. John's. Against the Red Storm, Ronsiek was 5-of-8 from three and added two blocks. She snagged six boards in each game this weekend and averaged 5.5 over the four-game stretch. Ronsiek added 10 points in last Sunday's setback at then-No. 11 UConn, in what was the Huskies' narrowest margin of victory in the BIG EAST since rejoining the league last season.Â
