BREVARD, N.C. - Following an impressive week that saw the Brevard College Women's Basketball team go 2-0 in action, freshman guard Makayla Street was selected as the USA South Conference Women's Basketball Rookie of the Week for the second time in the 2022-23 season.
Street, a first-year student from Rock Hill, South Carolina, averaged 15.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.5 steals per game as the Tornados posted a 2-0 record last week. In a 75-62 win over Warren Wilson, Street scored 12 points with six rebounds, three assists, and two steals. In a 72-62 victory over USA South for Pfeiffer, Street notched a double-double of 18 points and ten rebounds with one assist and one steal.
Street has been a big part of BC WBB's unprecedented success so far this season, as the Tornados are off to a 13-4 start that includes a program-best 10-1 start in conference action, as Brevard currently sits in sole possession of second place in the USA South standings.
Street is averaging 7.9 ppg and has scored in double figures six times in her freshman campaign, while also contributing heavily on the defensive end with 3.8 rebounds-per-game and nearly two steals per contest.
Street's award gives Brevard College a grand total of 27 weekly awards from the USA South so far in 2022-23.
