Lewis-Clark State College’s Kirsi Voshell picked up the Frontier Conference’s Women’s Basketball Player of the Week award, league officials announce on Monday.
LCSC had just one game last week, but the 6-foot-3 senior from Pullman, Wash., made it a memorable one as she finished with a double-double of 22 points and 13 rebounds to lead the Warriors, ranked No. 4 in NAIA Division I, to a 68-59 win over Easter Oregon University, ranked No. 9 in NAIA Division II.
The post player made 9-of-13 attempts from the field and also collected three blocks and three steals. The game was of even more significance than usual for Voshell because of the fact that she scored her 1,000th career point during the first half.
This stands as the third time that LCSC, now 9-1 overall, has earned the award this season as senior Jasmine Stohr earned the honor on back-to-back weeks in November. This is the first time Voshell has earned the award in her career.
Coming up on Lewis-Clark State’s schedule is a 1 p.m. game on Saturday against Whitworth in Spokane, and a 2 p.m. game on Sunday at home against Whitman.
