MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – Central Michigan’s David DiLeo was named the Mid-American Conference West Division Player of the Week for men’s basketball.

He averaged 18.0 points and 12.0 rebounds, as CMU claimed a true road win and remained undefeated at home (6-0).
On Tuesday, on the road at Missouri-Kansas City, DiLeo posted one of the top individual performances in the conference this season, recording career high numbers in points with 29 and rebounds with 15 in a 92-86 overtime win.
