MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Middle Tennessee senior standout Alex Johnson was named the Conference USA Player of the Week after leading the Lady Raiders to a pair of wins on opening weekend.
Johnson averaged 15.5 points, shot 68 percent from the field and 88 percent from the free-throw line, while pulling 10 rebounds in wins against Vanderbilt and Furman.
"I appreciate this recognition but there were so many players on our team who were instrumental in these wins," Johnson said. "It just feels good to be on the court and contributing."
It is Johnson's seventh C-USA weekly award.
