Big Ten Player of the Week Honor Roll (Dec. 18) -- Elissa Brett was named to the Big Ten Player of the Week honor roll, the first Wolverine to earn conference recognition this season. She tied a career high in the lone game last week for the Wolverines, pouring in 27 points with seven boards and a pair of assists against Miami (Ohio) (Dec. 16). In her second start in a Michigan uniform, she hit eight three-pointers to tie the third-best single-game mark in program history. It was the most three-pointers made in a game by a Wolverine not named Katelynn Flaherty. Brett's eight triples were the most by a Big Ten player this season for about eight hours until Caitlin Clark made nine against Cleveland State. » Big Ten Release
Ann Meyers-Drysdale Award Watch List (Oct. 17) -- Laila Phelia was one of 20 players named to the watch list for the Ann Meyers-Drysdale Award, given to the nation's top shooting guard. Phelia grabbed a spot on the watch list for the first time in her career after a breakout sophomore campaign last season. In her second season in Ann Arbor, Phelia earned All-Big Ten second-team honors after missing the month of February with an injury. She appeared in 26 games, starting 24 times en route to averaging 16.7 points and 4.2 rebounds in 33.1 minutes per game. Phelia scored in double figures 23 times and topped the 20-point mark 11 times. She was named to the all-tournament team at the Gulf Coast Showcase and to the Big Ten Honor Roll one time. Phelia upped her scoring from 8.8 points per game in her first season to 16.7 points per game last season, also more than doubling her three-pointers from 15 to 35. The list will be narrowed down to 10 in late January and then five finalists will be selected in March to be presented to Meyers-Drysdale and the selection committee. » Meyers-Drysdale Award
