Dec. 1, 2014 PRINCESS ANNE, Md. - Senior men's basketball forward Mike Myers (Camden, N.J.) and junior women's basketball forward Alexis Udoji (Randolph, Mass.) were named the University of Maryland Eastern Shore Peninsula Regional Medical Center Athletes of the Week for the week ending on December 1st. Myers is being named for the first time this year while Udoji is being named for the second time.
Myers led the way in three games over the past week, scoring over 20 points in two contests. Last Monday against Detroit Myers led in scoring with 21 points while tying a team high six rebounds and contributing two assists. The next night against Bucknell, Myers finished with just nine points but led the Hawks in rebounds with seven despite playing only 18 minutes. In Saturday's victory over Fordham, Myers led in points and steals, scoring 20 points while forcing two turnovers. The senior now leads the Hawks in both points and rebounds with 104 and 44, respectively.
In last Tuesday's win over Cheyney, Udoji picked up her third double-double on the season. With only 19 total minutes played, she went 3-for-7 including a triple along with four successful foul shots to earn 11 points. Additionally Udoji added 11 rebounds to complete the double-double, while also earning a block, steal and assist in the contest.
Myers and the men's team will face UMBC Tuesday night at 7:30 in the Hytche Center, while Udoji and the women's team will also play at home on Wednesday, hosting Mount St. Mary's beginning at 6:00p.m.
