Beane earns MVC Player of the Week honors

Beane was named Missouri Valley Co-Player of the Week, along with Evansville's sophomore center Egidijus Mockevicius. This is the fifth time the Normal product has won the honor in his Saluki career and the first time this season.

Beane led SIU (13-2) in scoring in both of its wins last week.

He scored 26 points in a 72-62 win at Loyola on Wednesday and tied his career high with 32 points in Saturday's 75-73 win against Northern Iowa.

His 58 combined points came on 27 field goals attempted, including a 10-15 night from three-point range and 12-15 performance from the free-throw stripe.
