AUDREY BAYSTON OF COLORADO COLLEGE, a junior guard from Alamo, Calif., has been named the SCAC Women’s Basketball Player-of-the-Week for games played from Monday, January 30 through Sunday, February 5. SCAC Women's Basketball Release (Week 13)
Bayston averaged 20-points in a pair of crucial home wins last weekend as the Tigers claw for SCAC Tournament seeding, including a game-high 23 in the win over previously undefeated Trinity, 70-64. Bayston was strong in the second half against the Texas Tigers, scoring 15 of her 23 points after halftime. In addition to her work offensively, Bayston averaged 6.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.5 steals per game. Bayston’s efforts have helped lift CC to its current eight game SCAC winning streak, the longest such streak since the Tigers joined the SCAC for the 2007-08 season. Last year Colorado College ended the regular season on a seven-game conference winning streak, the program’s previous high mark until this year.
