MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – Following her final two games inside the WVU Coliseum and a postgame marriage proposal on Senior Night, senior guard Bria Holmes earned her first career Big 12 Player of the Week honor.
A native of New Haven, Connecticut, Holmes averaged 28.5 points and 3.5 assists as the Mountaineers picked up wins over TCU (Feb. 24) and No. 22 Oklahoma State (Feb. 27) last week.
She scored 22 of her season-high 30 points in the second half against TCU, as WVU came back from a 13-point third quarter deficit to topple the Horned Frogs, 83-72.
