Rakova Named National Player of the Week

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – A great week for junior forward continued as she took home National Jesuit Player of the Week recognition from the Jesuit Basketball Spotlight. This comes after Rakova earned West Coast Conference player of the week honors on Monday in recording double-doubles in both of USF's wins this past week to open conference play

In the Dons' 82-67 win at San Diego this past Thursday, Rakova shot 5-for-9 from the field en route to an 11-point, 12-rebound night, while also adding three blocks. She followed that up by going 10-for-17, while knocking down her first three-pointer of the year, in leading USF with 21 points and 13 boards in a 77-68 overtime win against fellow-Jesuit institution Santa Clara on Saturday.
