I think I would give Tevonn the edge of Peters for player of the week.  Both deserve it.  Perhaps co-player of the week?

Agreed on Tevonn. In the "feature" game of the week, the ESPN game, he made big shot after big shot. Alec will get plenty of awards.

Seems like it's been done, but maybe not for two players on the same team?

I always sort of figured teams nominated one of their players, but perhaps they could squeeze in two players on the nomination form.

No way, Felder scored 20+ in both games this week.

Alec also had a crap-ton (official measurement) of rebounds in both games as well.

And whoever is nominated will have to face off with Cameron Morse from YSU - dropped 44 last night, averaged somewhere around 28 for the week as the Penguins went 2-1 - anybody know the last time YSU won twice in the same week?

Not to diminish TW's contributions, but I don't I don't think you relegate the guy who averages 27 PPG, 13 RPG, and sets our all-time single game scoring record to "also received votes."  The last thing I want the HL office to take into account is how many awards specific players have gotten in the past or might get in the future. That would take an already somewhat subjective process to a whole new level of subjectivity.

Agreed. Each team nominates one player. Alec will get the nomination and the award.

From the UDM bb website game recap:

39 points by Valparaiso* was the most by an opponent since Negele Knight had 42 for Dayton on Feb. 24, 1990...

*Should be "Valparaiso's Alec Peters"

Titans fans were heckling them with 20 seconds to go: "C'mon ref, 20 seconds left.  Plenty of time to call more fouls!"

As mentioned, let's separate the Oakland/Detroit game.  Titans bring different challenges.  Big question, will the Crusaders be mentally prepared after a ESPN2 game at Oakland?  The commissioner wrote a good piece on their blog and is worth reading.  I will be catching a 6am flight from Tulsa and will be at the game in Detroit.  Not too many direct flights from Tulsa but Detroit is one of them and after last nights game, I'm very excited.  And I've always wanted to see a game at Mercy.  Hope standby can get a seat and hope our guys are focused with a good game plan. 

The sagarin line has the good guys as 9 point favorites.
