MVC/OVC – This Week’s Star Players--Valley Hoops Insider
Not One Was Here Last Year
(St. Louis, MO) – The remade Missouri Valley and Ohio Valley Conferences have announced this week’s star players and not one of them was with their team or in these leagues last year.
During this transition season for both ‘valleys’ newcomers are making a huge impact. Neither of the leagues’ top scorers were around last season. None of this week’s star players were either.
Players of the Week
Belmont’s Carter Whitt had quite a week. While his numbers were really good, it was when and how he delivered them that made him one of this week’s stars. The Wake Forest transfer averaged twelve points, eight rebounds, 8.5 assists and three steals during two Bruin victories. But the ‘Player of the Week’ delivered a crucial steal and a game winning basket in one victory and four clinching free throws in the other. Whitt is fourth in the Valley, handing out 4.4 assists per game.
This Week’s Star Players – Newcomers
Indiana State (6-4, 1-0) has won three straight games and Presbyterian transfer Samage Teel is an emerging Valley star. Teel scored 23 points, grabbed seven rebounds and handed out nine assists during the Sycamores’ road win at Missouri State. This week’s MVC ‘Newcomer of the Week’ has recorded six, twenty-point performances and is third in the Valley’s scoring race (17.2 ppg).
Freshmen of the Week
Bradley’s Jaquan Johnson has made impact all season and is this week’s Valley ‘Freshman of the Week’. The Milwaukee native scored nine points, snagged five steals and handed out five assists during the Braves’ (8-1, 1-0) win at Southern Illinois.
