INDIANAPOLIS - After a stellar week, Macee Williams was rewarded by being named Horizon League Player of the Week, the league announced on Monday (Jan. 4). It is the second time this season that Williams has taken home the award.

Williams was stellar for IUPUI as the Jags improved to 6-0 in Horizon League play with two wins at Robert Morris. Williams averaged 25 points and 12.5 rebounds while playing just over 25.7 minutes in the two games against the Colonials. The senior shot 63% from the field and 75% from the free throw line, including going 10-for-12 from the stripe in the second game. Williams also added five assists, including a team-high four in game number two.

The senior is currently second in scoring in the Horizon League (19.4 ppg) and leads the league with 9.9 rebounds per game. Her 59.6 FG% is also tops in the league. Nationally, Williams ranks 47th in points per game and 42nd in rebounds per game. She is also 11th in the NCAA and tops in the Horizon with five double-doubles. 

With her 10th-career Horizon League Player of the Week award, Williams is now tied for the most career player of the week awards in Horizon League history with Traci Edwards who played at Milwaukee.

Williams and the Jags will be back at home this weekend, playing host to Northern Kentucky on Friday (Jan. 8) and Saturday (Jan. 9).
