With one collegiate game under her belt, Western Kentucky women’s basketball freshman Ally Collett has already started collecting recognition. Collett was named the Conference USA Freshman of the Week, the league announced Monday.
In her first game as a Lady Topper, Collett faced the challenge of playing national powerhouse Tennessee in Knoxville. She rose to the occasion, scoring a team-high 16 points on 4 of 7 shooting, including three 3-pointers and a perfect day from the free-throw line (5 of 5).
Her 16 points is the highest point total for a WKU freshman in her debut since Courtney Clifton scored 22 points on Nov.
