ROSEMONT, Ill. – Junior forward Mackenzie Holmes has been named the Big Ten Player of the Week, announced by the league on Monday.
Holmes averaged 26.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 5.0 blocks and shot 75.9 percent from the floor in a pair of wins over Fairfield and No. 20 Ohio State last week where she also shot 50 percent from the 3-point line and 80 percent at the free-throw line. This marks her second player of the week award for the season and third of her career.
Against the Stags, she went 9-for-10 from the floor, posted five blocks and five rebounds and went a perfect 5-for-5 from the free throw line in 24 minutes of work. In the win over No. 20 Ohio State, the Gorham, Maine native set a new career-high 30 points on 68 percent shooting to go along with seven rebounds and five blocks. Her 13 made field goals ties a career-high and became the first IU player to score 30 points since Amanda Cahill in 2018. In the win, Holmes became IU's 30th career player to reach 1,000 points.
Up next for Holmes and the No. 10 Hoosiers will resume play on Sunday, Dec. 19 against Western Michigan.
