Anaya Davis Named to the D3hoops.com Team of the Week and NACC Player of the Week

The awards and accolades continue to mount for Rockford University freshman sensation Anaya Davis, who added two more to her already impressive collection on Tuesday morning. Davis became the first Regent this season to be named to the D3hoops.com Team of the Week and also earned her third NACC Women's Basketball Player of the Week honors this year. She also becomes just the fourth player in program history to be selected to the D3hoops.com Team of the Week and the first to ever be named to the D3hoops.com Team of the Week and be selected the NACC Player of the Week in the same week.

Anaya Davis averaged 28.5 points and 20 rebounds in a pair of road NACC wins this past week. She opened with 25 points, 22 rebounds, 2 blocks and 1 steal for her third 20-point, 20-rebound game of the season in a win at Dominican. Davis then poured in a career-high 32 points, 18 rebounds, 1 block and 1 steal for her 17th double-double of the year in a comeback win at Lakeland.

Davis is putting together one of the best seasons in the history of the Rockford University women's basketball program. She currently leads the nation in double-doubles (17), rebounding (280) and offensive rebounds per game (7.0). She is also fifth in the country in free throw attempts (156) and rebounds per game (14.0) and ninth in made free throws (105). At the conference level, Davis leads the NACC in scoring (18.3 ppg) and rebounding (14.0 rpg) and is fourth in steals (2.4 spg).

The RU women's basketball team will look to improve upon its NACC Tournament seeding on Tuesday, February 8 when the Regents travel to Concordia University Chicago. Tip-off between the Regents and Cougars is set for 7 PM.
