Editor's note: Charlie Creme, Graham Hays and Mechelle Voepel each vote to determine espnW's national player of the week, which is awarded every week of the women's college basketball season.

Putting up gigantic numbers isn't always enough to earn espnW player of the week honors. Because, hey, there are a lot of big stats achieved by players across the country every week. There are other factors to weigh, such as the quality of opponent, the team's result, etc.

So if you're thinking that just because she scored 60 points Sunday means Minnesota's Rachel Banham ended all discussion for the award this week .
