NEW ORLEANS - Appalachian State University women’s basketball guard Madi Story was named the Sun Belt Conference’s Student-Athlete of the Week for her performances against UL Lafayette and UL Monroe last week, the league office announced on Monday.
Story garners the award after averaging 20.5 points, five rebounds and four assists while shooting 40 percent from the floor, 36.4 from beyond the arc and an impressive 92.9 percent (13-for-14) from the free throw line.
Story is the first student-athlete on the team to receive the accolade this season, while being the first Mountaineer since Maryah Sydnor was named Student-Athlete of the week last season on Nov.
