MONROE, La. – ULM junior guard Kierra Brimzy was named Women's Basketball Player of the Week by the Louisiana Sports Writers' Association Monday afternoon.
Brimzy averaged 17.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game in two games last week. She delivered a standout performance in her return to her hometown of Natchitoches, Louisiana, on Saturday. Brimzy scored a season-high 24 points while knocking down four 3-pointers in a 68-55 win at Northwestern State. Brimzy scored 20 of her 24 points over the first three quarters of the game. She added five rebounds and three assists against the Lady Demons. She tallied a team-high 11 points with four rebounds and an assist on Thursday vs. Grambling State.
"We are thrilled for Brimzy," ULM women's basketball head coach Brooks Donald Williams said. "She's settling in and getting more comfortable by the day. What a great honor for an in-state kid who stayed home to represent her home state."
The Warhawks return to Fant-Ewing Coliseum at 6 p.m. Tuesday to host Mississippi Valley State. For tickets, call 318-342-HAWK or go online to ULMWarhawks.com. Links to live video, audio and stats are available on the women's basketball schedule page at ULMWarhawks.com.
