Past Student-Athletes of The Week

NIAGARA UNIV., N.Y. - After two strong performances for the Niagara women's basketball team (3-8), Kayla Stroman has earned Niagara Student-Athlete of the Week honors.

Stroman was one of the best players on the floor last week for the Purple Eagles, in close defeats to Ohio and St. Bonaventure. Against the Bobcats, Stroman scored a team-high nine points, along with a team-high four assists. She followed up that performance with an eight-point game against the Bonnies, while also earning a team-high four assists and team-high two steals.

On the young season, Stroman's 8.5 points per game is second best for Niagara, while she leads the team with 37 assists and 23 steals.

Stroman and the rest of the Purple Eagles are back in action on Thursday, Dec. 29, when they visit in-state rival Syracuse at 7 p.m.
