JOHNSON TABBED GSC PLAYER OF THE WEEK
 The
Gulf South Conference has announced its
Men's Basketball Players of the Week for
the week ending December 18th.
North Alabama guard Kenny Johnson (SR,
5-11, 160, Plaquemine, Louisiana).
Johnson is the third different UNA honoree
this season, leading the Lions to a pair
of important road wins last week. He
averaged 21.5 points, 6.0 rebounds and 4.5
assists in 38.0 minutes of action, while
also shooting 56.5 from the floor and 50.0
percent from beyond the arc.
The senior started the week, netting a
game-high 25 points and adding team-best
seven boards in an 83-66 victory at
Clayton State. Next, the Plaquemine, LA
native led North Alabama to an important
79-62 in-region road win over Lynn by
scoring 18 points, dishing out a game-high
six assists and pulling down five rebounds
in 37 minutes.
This is the fourth time in five weeks that
a UNA Lion has claimed player of the week
honors. Casey Holt claimed the award the
weeks of 11/20/07, and 11/28/07 while
Thomas Fraise won the award the week of
12/12/07). UNA is now 9-4 on the season
with a 5-2 record within the region. |
