Frontier Conference honors LCSC’s Gordy again

1-3-08

For the second time this season, Lewis-Clark State College senior forward Mike Gordy has been named the Frontier Conference’s men’s basketball Player of the Week. 

Gordy picked up the honor again Thursday for his play last week in a pair of victories over Thompson Rivers University. In Friday’s 97-66 win, the 6-foot-5 product of Denver, Colo., finished 10-of-16 from the field and 6-of-6 at the foul line to finish with a game-high 28 points. He also had three rebounds, two assists, and two steals. 

On Saturday, he followed it up with another solid performance in the Warriors’ 106-57 win. In that game he was 7of-9 from the field and 10-of-12 at the foul line for 25 points. He also added four rebounds, one assist, one steal and one blocked shot. 

For the two games, Gordy averaged 26.5 points, shot 68 percent from the field (17 of 25, including a perfect 3-of-3 from the 3-point area), and was 16-of-18 at the foul line. 

Jenna Sawyer of Rocky Mountain won the women’s honor, while Vanessa West of LCSC was nominated for the award. 

Both LCSC teams will be back in action on Saturday when they open Frontier Conference play in Salt Lake City against Westminster.
